CLT08 Day2
CLT is over and i wished i could say we all arrived savely, but right now Jens
Kuehnel makes a odysee accross Germany to reach Amsterdam in the netherlands
latest tomorrow, because RedHat needs a trainer there! But Storm "Emma"
destroyed the ways so he started an 01:00pm in Chemnitz - direction north -
Leipzig - then further to Frankfurt Main - but much to late, because some
ways are destroyed - so he must take a train to South of Germany Stuttgart to
take a train direct to Amsterdam. What really angry is, i started with Robert
Scheck at 06:00pm in the evening and reached Stuttgart two hours ago!
After all, like Jens said yesterday - if you want contribute on a OpenSource
Event, never Start with CLT - you will compare every event with this "best of
the best" organized events and don´t want miss it anymore. In the other hand,
i can´t imagine to have a better start.
How was it? This event had the largest Debian presence i ever seen on a event.
So every time i spoke with people who showed potential to contribute to the
Fedora Project they commited "oh i use (contribute) only (to) Debian i would
only hear what you do" :(
Characteristic for Chemnitz is also, a high presence of women who are
interested in Free Software - Chitlesh do you remember last year? And so i
tried also to blabbing they in the Fedora Project but as before they use
Debian, Ubuntu or one of the three BSD´s - geeky women! If you ask for
potential of the "others", yes there is, but we need easier access as example
for "Users" who want translate or do documentation work. Robert had his own
little "install fest" with a guy who really needed his help. Jens gave his
talk - and again i did´nt seen it.
See some pictures <
http://www.simline.de/CLT08/> - and notice this event shows
much potential for contributors and i would suggest to raise the presence
next year.
