So that was the first conference event in December, the second follows immediately, but must remain in between for some time. Geblogge FOSS.IN , the largest conference on free software world, asia far, is definitely strong at overdo with such descriptions.
Gathered about a thousand visitors, which is not bad, but the announced issue of long queues at the entrance was probably a leftover from last year, in this gabs no snakes. 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. After all, I had such a chance again to see how non-evil Google is.
In the conference rooms but exciting presentations, some unfortunately rather empty. Fortunately, my speech was well filled, was fun and build some new prospects for the idea of a wireless mesh gabs in Bangalore also. To those requests from Delhi and Bangladesh, now, already has some attraction to FOSS. During the lecture, and then There Were 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 has made no one, huh spontaneous enough? In addition, noted a lot of new people on the mailing list BangaloreWirelessMesh, well, what is hoped that the next meeting.
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 also space for spontaneous ideas would have been BoF (BirdOfFeather?) Tents-gabs, but where use was the edit button? In MediaWiki, which presented the pages of FOSS.IN. To add pages to organize something spontaneous? Somehow seem to have the fear of communities here, maybe now, I only make my experience even more. FOSS.IN, nice people, but somewhat cold atmosphere, too little community, too much Corporation.
Ok, so much remains critical review, no less critical of foresight, and tells me that tomorrow I NEN lecture entitled " Who Can You Trust? may hold. " On of a conference entitled Technology, Governance and Citizenship . There will certainly be more spontaneous and more chaos, so good preparation for the Christmas visit to D-land. And I suspect that it already damn cold to go with you, brrrrrr.
Interesting photos, especially Google. It is cold here, nothing left for more vormitags rain, rainy afternoon and evening rain. The outlook: cloudy
So it has been going on for almost a week.
24c3 is now well established, probably even comes with SH01. Have to 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 should be happy now?
I do think I'm pretty happy to 24c3, you / to seeing you there. Perhaps it is so spread some chaos
Regards,
Rene
