So I had at the time of my life at Wizards of OS 4, just as expected. Great panel discussions, great conversations, old friends, new friends… this event had it all. I am really glad that I made it here. The thing that amazes me the most is the fantastic team that puts this event [...]

And the most common question I get after my talks -”Can [...]

This afternoon I completed the formalities related to booking of the venue for FOSS.IN/2006. FOSS.IN/2006 will be held on November 24/25/26 (Friday-Sunday) at the National Science Symposium Centre of the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. This year’s event will be formatted very differently, taking the best from the old Linux Bangalore and last year’s FOSS.IN [...]
