So that was the first conference event in December, the second follows immediately, but must stay in between for some time. Geblogge FOSS.IN , the largest conference on free software world, throughout Asia, is definitely the strong exaggeration with such descriptions.
Gathered about a thousand visitors, which is not bad, but the problem of long queues, announced at the inlet was probably a leftover from last year, There Were no snakes in this. This year, There Were no snakes, no idea whether the involvement was simply worse than before. But what it gave plenty of promotional items from sponsors, platinum, gold, silver and other sponsors were everywhere were distributed between the conference rooms. At least I had the chance to see once again how non-evil Google is.
In the conference rooms but exciting presentations, sometimes, unfortunately, quite empty. Fortunately, my speech was well filled, was fun and build some new prospects for the idea, in Bangalore, a wireless mesh gabs. These requests are from Delhi and Bangladesh, now, has had some appeal to FOSS. During the lecture after gabs and also the first wireless mesh freifunk.foss.in in Bangalore, so that visitors can play around a bit. Judging by the list of registered IP addresses, but that has done no one, huh spontaneous enough? Also note a lot of new people on the mailing list BangaloreWirelessMesh, well, hopefully the next meeting was.
Everything experienced in all interesting conference days, the hack center was probably the only community space, but clearly, if we had worked through the usual conference jungle space for spontaneous ideas would have been BoF (BirdOfFeather?) Tents-gabs, but where your were the edit button? In Mediawiki, which presented the pages of FOSS.IN. To add pages to organize something spontaneous? Somehow seem to have this fear of communities, then maybe, I just make my experience even more. FOSS.IN, nice people, but somewhat cold atmosphere, too little community, too much Corporation.
Ok, so much remains a critical review, no less critical of foresight, and tells me that tomorrow I NEN lecture on " Who Can You Trust? may hold. " On of a conference entitled Technology, Governance and Citizenship . There will certainly be more spontaneous and more chaos, that is good preparation for the Christmas visit to D-land. And I can guess that it is damn cold to go with you, BRRRRRR.
Interesting photos, especially Google. It is cold here By the way do not tend vormitags rain, rainy afternoon and evening rain. Extended forecast: mostly cloudy
So it has been going on for almost a week.
24c3 is now well established, probably even comes with SH01. Must look only to whether we can still bring him into our accommodation.
Keep meshing!
Best regards
Mathias
Well, the pictures of your GlühweinShootout but show a rather unusual dress code
Hats, scarves, brrr. Well, after all, indicates rain at temperatures above zero, I will be happy now?
I do look forward to beautiful 24c3, you / you make there. Perhaps it is so spread some chaos
