CrazyWingman's Journal: Linuxtag rocked!

Just returned from Linuxtag. Quite fun, I have to say. Even if my German is a bit slow... :P

It's always cool to see so many people all interested in a common topic in one place. It's also nice to see that not only small-ish companies supporting Linux, but also large ones (HP, Sun, etc.). You read about it all the time on Slashdot and stuff, but to actually see them at a convention dedicated specifically to linux is just cool.

The talks were alright, if a bit slow and almost boring occasionally. I assume they are more meant to capture a random interest, rather than thoroughly educate attendees. Of course, it also seemed like some of the slow-awkward-ness stemmed from the fact that several of the presenters tried to give their presentations in English, when they were definitely not native English speakers.

Very enjoyable, though. Thanks to all involved in organizing it, and thanks to the town of Karlsruhe for hosting.
