The last few days in review
I’m back in Kuala Lumpur now, after flying from Sunday->Tuesday. Pooped by the flight, energised by the Fedora people (does that even make sense?). Again, what can I saw, it was fun++. Caught Raise Your Voice on the plane.
Wednesday was a mixture of driving around, seeing the girl, going to a Chap Goh Meh party, getting a cheap SMC router/wifi ap, and not getting enough sleep. Thursday was further going out, more in lieu since it was my father’s birthday. No special release of anything open source today to commemerate that, sadly (unlike last years training materials), but I do have a Communicator 9500 to fiddle with in Linux.
MYOSS meetup
Tomorrow, Saturday, the 26/02/2005, there’s a gathering say for supper for the Malaysian OSS folk. Come one, come all? Ditesh, Platypus Low Kian Seong, and others will be there. I will be too, this time around.
There’s a PHP gathering today (Friday, 25/02/2005) that folk are warmly invited to go for. I was supposed to make it, but I’m going to help the girl clean the house ;-)
Fedora
There’s going to be a slippage of Test 1 release for Core 4. GCC4 rebuilds are going to be fun, especially on PPC I guess. Because we’re so close to a release, and now we might have an assortment of other fun bits.
Fedora Extras Steering Committee had a meeting today. Our very first one. Minutes should be up online soon. We have a public schedule of what needs to get done, and we probably should get along to doing it.
Core is on a slim-fest, fast, and a whole bunch of packages have left it. The Extras/Orphaned Packages page at the wiki is particularly useful. Seeing that I’ve started playing bzflag, I’d like that to be imported into Extras… Err, yeah, this is a call for other package maintainers to come step up.
