Devops Needs Sushi
The 10th edition of Fosdem is getting closer, yes .. I said 10 ,10 decimal that means ten, not two :)
It’s kinda hard to imagine that this is actually going to be my 10th fosdem , it feels weird ..
Anyhow.. Lenz just announced a call for participation for the MySQL and Friends devroom.
I`m guessing a talk on .LolSQL might be a good fit for the “and Friends” part.
There are a lot of great Open Source conferences out there, some of them organized by volunteers, some of them oranized by user groups, some by commecial entities, but none of them is so open as the last DrupalCon,
In all its awesomeness the DrupalCon DC organization actually
published it’s internal financial details for everybody to view.
Try beating that :)
Oh and while we are talking about conferences .. Fosdem has a YouTube channel with a lot of recorded fosdem talks available.
I covered this one before .. but as it struck twiced today .. I think it’s worth repeating. Both my collegue Karl and Trent ran into the same problem , within hours hours of eachother, a missing or failing reverse dns mapping that caused performance issues .. and a lot of log entries..
Karl denies having a second life in Perth but I`m not really sure about that …
But I guess they both have to agree… Everything is a fscking DNS problem.
(I noticed other people using that spelling this weekend, on stage in the Janson)
I just got mail that my presentation on MySQL Monitoring ShootOut is currently being showcased on the ‘Technology’ page by the slideshare editorial team.
It’s likely to be there for the next 16-20 hours…
Thnx folks !
The slides for my Monitoring MySQL talk , which I gave earlier today in an overcrowded MySQl Developersroom at Fosdem are now online, both at my site and at Slideshare
As of now I actually expect people to use those slides for schoolwork or next year in a main Fosdem track :)
As afterall that is the goal of Open Source and spreading the word ..
It’s a fact .. I suck at handing out Free beer, last december we managed to meet in a pub that was closed , and yesterday at the
Fosdem beer event when Philip asked me to hand out some plates of beer I managed getting them out then started wondering why peo
ple didn’t grab them till I started shouting FREE BEER … that worked .. ..
As usual the Beer event was lots of fun bumping into people you iknow but whose name you need to think about for over a minute beo
fre you can remember it.
There is a really easy way to figure out …
Look at the size of of the devrooms , if at all , a project gets at Fosdem
It’s really interresting to see the Embedded room move to a 500 seat room which it really needed when the first openMoko talk was held there in a previous edition.
The FDO , Drupal, Mozilla, Centos/Fedora and Suse rooms stay in similar size rooms as last year.. But it seems lik the BSD and PostgreSQL room which was pretty crowded moved to a bigger location.
