the foot trademark issue
As luis pointed I asked the board to get the right to print T-Shirt for computer events. I made the request in a sufficiently scoped fashion that I think the lawyers should not oppose this. Then if this go though I want to expose this wording so others can get the same kind of approval for local geek show. But I don't think I flamed the board (I would have to flame myself, ouch !), I'm just trying to get a process which others can follow to achive GNOME marketing without making risk on the trademark.
FOSDEM
FOSDEM was huge, as expected, a lot of things going on in parallel, I could not talk to all the people I intended to chat with :-\, still managed to listen to some nice talks, make a talk on libxml2/libxslt and a speed talk on gamin. I need to put them on-line and update veillard.com Talks section.
