ApacheCon 2005 in Stuttgart
However, I offered to help and within the next day(s) Tolimar and XTaran joined in too, so we got ourselves a nice little expo team now.
There was a little trouble as to where to sleep since the prices at the Stuttgart youth hostel are rather steep (especially since two of us fall in the additional "senior citizen charge" of 3 Euros per night *g*). We then sent a mail to the Stuttgart LUG asking for some space to crash. Granted, a rather bold venture, but the very nice people there actually offered us their floors and sofas! I am once more intrigued by the solidarity of the Linux community! Unfortunately no one was able to host all three of us and we prefered to stay together.
So, we found ourselves an other solution: We'll go camping! There is a campground pretty close to Stuttgart's city centre and Tolimar managed to get us a tent suitable for three people (or so he says).
Well, I am very much looking forward to this. I am sure we'll be worthy representatives of the Debian project and maybe we'll even have some fun in the process ;-)

Still alive Haven't written anything lately, mainly because I am quite busy these days. I actually still am, so this will only be a quick update:
- After getting through my final exam it is now "normal" exam season. Next one will be saturday morning (Computer Architecture and Operating Systems) and to say that I feel unprepared would be an understatement. However this is my normal state of mind before exams, so we'll see how things turn out.
- This is again the time of year when I desperately wish I had a balcony! It's wonderfully sunny outside and I am sitting in here, still pale as a dead fish longing for some UV. On a more positive side, I'll have something garden-like in Leipzig, and I am prepared to use it!:)
- I am listening to a lot of music recently. I usually am rather the type that just switches on the radio to get rid of the silence. However, in the last days i kinda "rediscovered" my taste for music. Current playlist features Ani Difranco, Catatonia, Janis Joplin, Anne Clark, Slow Moe, Buena Vista Social Club and a lot of Edith Piaf.
