Fedora FAD @ UTOSC 2009: Fedora-Event-Splash (aka FES)
Even though I’m extremely involved in the organization and management of the Utah Open Source Conference, I’ve got a big project in which I’m interested. It’s the new concept around Fedora-Event-Splash (or FES, pronounced FEZ).
This project was dreamed up by Mr. Ian Weller and he graciously let me tag along to get the thing going. [...]
VoIP: Fedora Talk gets talky!
Not that I was bored, I wasn’t! Not that I didn’t have anything else to do, I do! Not that there isn’t more to do, there is! It’s just that I have been spending a little bit more time using Fedora Talk lately and I noticed a few things were missing.
First, there wasn’t (and still [...]

The North American Fedora Ambassadors team has obtained a room for the first North American Fedora Activity Day @ SCaLE 7x!
What is a FAD, you ask? Well, let’s try to explain.
It is clear that while FUDCon [...]
FUDCon F11: Day 2 (Part 2)
5:45pm: Paul ends his remarks and we depart to the hotel and FUDPub. I’m rather tired, not getting much sleep this weekend has worn me down. I tell Dave that I am going to go crash for an hour and he promptly calls me a wimp!
6:12pm: In hotel room, snuggled up to Jennifer. Still debating [...]
FUDCon F11: Day 2 (Part 1)
8:05am: Light flutters into the room. More likely, I notice it at this time, it’s probably been light for some time. Climb out of warm bed, boy am I tired. Today is the bar camp and I have audio recording to setup.
8:35am: Arrive at MIT for the FUDCon bar camp, grab a muffin, some juice [...]
FUDCon F11: Day 1
8:05am: Sleep is interrupted by brain doing mental exercises about the Fedora AmbassadorKit hackfest. Also interrupted by incredible urge to pee.
8:30am: Decided I was finally awake enough to write FUDCon F11: Day 0 post.
9:00am: Packed everything I needed (or thought I needed) into my backpack. This took incredibly long.
9:10am: Somewhere around this time, I was [...]
ScreenCast: Fedora Talk with Twinkle
If you haven’t heard, Fedora now has a VOIP (Voice Over IP) server called Fedora Talk. Information about it can be found at talk.fedoraproject.org.
Essentially, the goal of Fedora Talk is to make it easier for use Fedorans to talk with one another, hold conference calls and accommodate impromptu conversations that need to happen over voice. [...]
FAD NA Day 1
Well, after staying up until around 4am hacking (2am with David and Cade), I finally finished my presentations slides and went to sleep for a measly 3hrs 45mins. But that was enough to get me through the rest of the day. And what a day it was!
When I arrived downstairs just after 8am, people were [...]
Dear Lazyweb: Can I have that as a CMS?
So I was following up on a talk I had seen at djangocon this year, and ran across this site by Cal Henderson – http://www.iamcal.com/
The interesting part about this site is that he has about 10-12 different elements on his front page sharing information about what was going on, etc. in his life. I am [...]
The OLPC Deserves Better!
The following two articles were published in the past couple days. When they were published and made known to me, I was saddened:
Report: OLPC may eventually switch from Linux to Windows XP
Nicholas Negroponte on Sugar and One Laptop Per Child
It appears, that Greg DeKoenigsberg responded (it appears) to these two articles with a great rebuttal [...]
