The Buzzard Lecture Theatre. Evan Burge Building, Trinity College, Melbourne University Main Campus, Parkville.
This talk will go over how one amateur photographer works on Linux through both analogue and digital sources, managing an ever growing photo collection and basic to advanced image manipulation. You'll see ufraw, iscan, f-spot, darktable and The GIMP.
Stewart has diversified the functionality of his laundry by also having it be a Brewery and makeshift darkroom. Basically it's a room of chemicals you should either consume lots of or absolutely none at all. By day he hacks on the Drizzle Database Server and by night he saves the world from unspeakable demons (proprietary software). His prefered bribes are Vegan cupcakes, falafel and dumptrucks full of money rolling up to his house.
Not all kernels are created equally, more importantly sometimes "one size fits all" is just not the right answer. We will go over some of the long history of working towards a better independent message passing kernel, which will hopefully help explain why this is still so important to a great many kernel hackers - with a quick look at MACH and why it's dynamite on paper yet a REAL pain to implement. Why L4 came about as a cut down, slicker purpose driven version of the same concept. How it works, who is using it & where we are going ... and obviously, how to get involved. Please note that you DO NOT need to be a kernel hacker to understand this talk.
Andrew Chalmers ... hrm yeah that guy. Andrew has been involved in FOSS for ... a while now. He has been VP of AUUG, President of LUV and a devil may care flying fool.
