another debian bug squasing party at limux office

To celebrate the move to our new office building, there will be another Debian Bug Sqashing Party! The event will take place from 27.11. to 29.11. Here is the Google Maps link. The BSP starts on Friday afternoon at about 17:00.

As always, everybody with moderate Unix skills is welcome to participate. Some Debian or programming knowledge is also desirable.

For Debian Newbies, there will be a packaging introduction on Friday evening. Please be prepare your Notebooks for a Wireles LAN setup, as we're still not done with the cabling after our move to the new office building last week.

Last, but not least i'm glad we will be able to sponsor some pizza for the hungry developer crowd ;-)

New openmoko accessories arrived

8 GB of storage will more than suffice for a nice and clean Debian installation ;-)

If you live in germany, i absolutely recommend http://www.pulster.de/ for all free phone accessories!

DebConf9 Caceres pre-review

After 8 days of hacking, hours of hours filled with interesting talks, insightful discussions and a mix of Debian packaging with git, i'm finally sitting in one of the last talks of this years DebConf9. I would like to say a big "thank you" to the local team and other people involved.

You did a great job and it was (just as expected) a very inspiring event!

Distributing virtually boxed applications

Our DebConf BoF titled "Distributing virtually boxed applications" has been scheduled!

We'll present a system to distribute virtualbox images. The system images are shared by all
users, immutable and updateable, and a small persistent virtual disk for the data is generated on the fly.

The BoF introduces this solution to anyone interested in getting from .vdi to .deb and invites you to join a
discussion about the pros and cons of this approach.

Feel free to ping me with any questions.
