Building A PC Case From Spare Shampoo Bottles
,----[ Quote ]
| A feature of Linux.conf.au 2009 in Hobart is Batteries Not Included, a
| tech-influenced art event -- and one of the more striking installation ideas
| is the Frank Zappa Project, a garbage bin for collecting plastic shampoo
| bottles from delegate hotel rooms to be recycled into casing for machines
| built as part of the OLPC project.

LCA2009: Going the Satellite route with Red Hat
,----[ Quote ]
| The company in question is Red Hat; its revenue went up 22 percent in the
| third US quarter, with earnings going up by 20 percent. Those are certainly
| figures that no-one would sneeze at.
|
| Hence, it was to be expected that Richard Keech, who works for Red Hat
| locally as principal consultant, would be wearing a grin on his face when I
| met him to discuss the talk he gave at the Australian national Linux
| conference in Hobart.

LCA2009: That mysterious thing called the kernel
,----[ Quote ]
| Corbet pointed out that maintaining code outside the mainline kernel was
| expensive; if code made it to this kernel, the one that is handled by
| Torvalds, then the chances of it being in every distribution were very good.
