In a few hours from now, I will be on my way back to India.

I leave behind tons of memories of my grandmother, and of her … no … our home. Hopefully, I will be able to bring Shubha and Anjali here early next year.

In Bangalore, the collossus named Linux Bangalore/2003 awaits me, and all the chaos that goes along with the organisation of such a huge event.

Just juggling the huge list of talks is a massive task, occupying various people full time. And let’s not talk about all the other millions of things that need to be done. Luckily, the team of managers running the show knows what it is doing – after all this is the third year that we are doing this event, and it is already on the world’s conventions map!

OK everyone, ready or not – here I come!
