Southern_Gentlem, threethirty, SGS all instructing the world about fedora linux
i sat in on stormy’s opening keynote. of the few points she made, the one about how much of our private data can be better controlled using firefox was surprising to me. i was also intrigued about the tomboy notes app, something of which i have not made much use.
i sat in on stickster’s pyGtk talk. it was a good presentation. i’ve fooled around with pyGtk before, so this was a refresher. it was presented well. i just wish he had more time available to expound on more of his examples.
john “maddog” hall – thanks for all the fish!
i had never heard john “maddog” hall speak before, but i was familiar with the name. his closing session at the end of the day was an enlightening trip of his forty years of jobs which included his introduction and involvement with linux from the operating system’s beginning.
we handed out all the media, almost all the stickers, and the t-shirts went like hotcakes! i wasn’t there for the t-shirt giveaway, but i heard it took only 15 minutes to unload the batch SouthernGentlem brought with him. everyone wanted them! and why not? it is fedora, after all.

it’s been a while since i’d taken a road trip. this weekend was pleasant.
oh, and the accommodations were very nice. this was sunrise from my window on saturday morning.
