OSCON 2008

its 3:25am, ugh and I'm still up. Went to see Batman tonight. GREAT, err EPIC movie!

So far OSCON is looking like this:
Leave tomorrow, Friday the 18th -- going to talk with the postgreSQL group at their meeting on sunday. Perhaps goto the beach Saturday.
Monday, Tuesday working on drupal stuff -- possibly some LTSP, depends on who will be there.
Wednesday I'm going to try to meet up with Greg KH, either on the expo hall or at the Opensuse meeting at 4:30PM.
Thursday night is FOSCON, and Josh + Me are supposed to be competing in a rapid web development thingy. It should be fun to show off Drupal!
Friday starts the LTSP conference, going into saturday. I'll be around hopefully most of friday, and try to be there saturday morning-midday, before heading back home saturday evening.

If you want to stalk me, here is my (tentative) schedule:

At the linuxfest northwest booth, we will have our production/test LTSP server, running OpenSUSE 11.0 and the Novell client. If I can get the VPN running correctly, I hope to show it off connecting upto eDirectory.

My main goals at OSCON this year is to..
1) talk to some novell/opensuse devs and get an idea where Novell is on supporting multi-user systems such as LTSP
2) Kick ass and take names with drupal development
3) Find neat new tools we can implement within our technology structure
4) Try to squash a few annoying usability problems with our current LTSP system.
5) Find at least one person who uses tinyERP. (Good luck with that!)

If you're looking for me, I'll be wearing a computer t-shirt. oh and have a name tag on. umm I guess that describes 90% of us. I usually lurk around the linuxfest booth.. hmm that probably doesn't help much either. Okay well I look like this... I'm the young one, bottom right:
