I'm at OSDC, currently quaking in my boots a bit, as I'm doing the opening chatter today. The last couple of days have been hectic - especially yesterday morning, we processed 140 registrations in about 40 minutes. That was ... fun. And frantic. No major disasters so far, network is up and running, wifi is working (mostly).
I've been to two talks - yesterdays keynote, where Rusty Russell extolled the value of C, and noted that there have been some really excellent C programmers over the years ... guido van rossem, larry wall, rasmus leodorf, matz .. twas a good talk. I also went to Arjen Lentz' talk on 'Getting things done', which was interesting; I'll have to read up on some of the techniques he recommended. The lightning talks were, as always, great fun. Last night I attended the Beer BOFH session for a short time, having a pint of cider down at the brewhouse.
I'm a bit stressed, and looking forward to letting my hair down a bit at the conf dinner tonight, relaxing and just having a chance to enjoy the conference.
