When Mako writes about top posters, I cannot help but think of this kind of posters:

There’s a t-shirt too…

Debconf5

By the way, I’d like to apologize in advance to the passengers of flight Air France 1098, Paris Charles de Gaulle — Helsinki on July 9th, in case your (our) flight is delayed because I have a very optimistic travel agent who believes that 65 minutes ought to be enough to make a connection in that airport. Thanks.

I’d apologize to the passengers of the return flight to Vigo on the 18th too (50 minutes), but I can’t remember the flight’s designation.

Update: Oh, the schedules in the CDG airport can be seen online, and apparently all my flights arrive at and depart from terminal 2D. Hopefully, that will mean less running around than I had foreseen. Or perhaps it’s just that I got too used to the Madhouse-Barajas airport (where they’ll lose your baggage even if your plane does not stop there).

When this appears in Planet Debian, this will mean two things:

• That Planet Debian’s DNS server has picked up my new server’s IP.
• That a plain-woody to sarge upgrade works flawlessly (this is to keep the post on topic, although it is true ;-)).
• That soon, JVDS (no link) will not be getting my money any more.

Well, these were three things, but I’m not repeating the Spanish Inquisition skit here. Take care.

By the way, the ability to create debian-installer CDs with preseed files is amazing. Congratulations (and thanks) to all the culprits :-) More news tomorrow when I’m no longer fuming :-)

I, too, extend my offer of a hackergotchi to everyone who wants one (just send or point me to a photo or set of photos of yours). Allow a couple of days for production, shipping and handling. We’ll discuss payment during the DebConf 5 ;-)

This is my portfolio (heh):

• 
  This is the first one I made and the shadow had to be fixed by someone else before uploading it.
• 
  There were two versions of this one.
• 
  I’m never happy with how I appear in photos.
• 
  This would be Branden’s hackergotchi if his blog were called “You like the blog. Read from the blog”. Or if there is a blog about the release of Sarge, it could become its hackergotchi ;-)

W00t! Branden has a blog!

Now he only lacks a hackergotchi to go with his blog in Planet Debian. If the blog were called “You like the blog. Read from the blog”, I’d have proposed this hackergotchi:

(Link to the bigger version).

Now, if Branden wants to send me a recent photo of his, I could make a proper one… :-)
