OMG its talk day!!1one one

Thursday, January 18th, 2007


Okay so Sydney has been awesome so far. Karla has had the chance to catch up with her brother, participate in the wonderful partners program and also score a ‘linus sighting’ at the Google party.

LCA is a great chance to meet up with those mates who you only get to see once a year (but talk to every day ). Morgan Tocker from MySQL spent last year living down the road from us but now he’s off to montreal where we will only see him at LCA (and the next libre graphics meeting ) plug plug

For those who weren’t able to make it… the conference looks a little like this.

Okay thats a photo Karla took when her group visited the Zoo yesterday.

My talk starts at 11 in matthews C. Rock on by if you are even vaguely interested in web technologies, publishing, artwork or just wasting time by watching bling bling. If else please visit Chris’s Sugar talk and report back to me for theft of your brainy cached data stuffs

Linux.conf.au bound

Friday, January 12th, 2007
Arriving at Linux.conf.au on sunday 11:15am with Karla in tow flight QF0515.

I cant wait to say g’day to all the people I only get to meet up with once a year and I think Karla can’t wait for the pink bus shopping day on the partners program. (I was told she’d visit my talk so long as it doesn’t fall on the same day).

conference title

This year: I’ve got a tutorial regarding Inkscape and design with libre graphics tools. I think the focus on tool-chaining and i18n will draw a different crowd but don’t worry. It’s all in the name of bling. Tips and techniques to be covered in full.

I did the orange boomerangs for the conference logo this time. The justification was “bringing the conference back to AU” and “back to Sydney for the 7th LCA” as well. The gnome.conf.au shirts will also feature some Australiana. This of course, is just my excuse to sport some FOSS-wear for the 26th (Australia day) after the conference.
