We took some pictures in the IV Congreso Hispalinux: this was taken going to dinner on Friday (I am the one to the right), it had to be a dinner with Debian developers but then a lot of people joined (including people from that other distribution :-). It was a lot of fun (you know, twenty people arrive to a restaurant and instead of choosing the menu they start exchanging keys, oh my! :-). I met Jordi there and a very experienced coder from Lleida called Jordi Murgó. It was a pleasure for me to met rasmus in the congress and talk a bit with him, the moment was also immortalized.

I was very impressed by rasmus's conferences and humbly agreed with his thoughts and motivations regarding web development. In the company I work just about everything is done with servlets, JSPs and Oracle. I believe we need to rethink the way we work and program simpler, more elegant solutions.

The BSD forum was somewhat instructive, but in the middle of it someone entered and started to criticize the BSD community and the BSD license gratuitously, he was sadly the center of the rest of the forum.
