openSUSE Day (Chile): Awesome.
,----[ Quote ]
| And the day came. After a six hours trip on bus, and a few minutes of sleep I
| got to Santiago de Chile. Francisco Toha picked me up so we headed to
| Universidad Andres Bello for the openSUSE Day. Huge building and plenty of
| room for everyone. The event started almost on time. I followed the first
| talk, a bit hoping to have a decent internet connection so I could show a
| live SUSE Studio test drive. OK, that didn’t happen. The internet traffic
| ratio was too slow like waiting 59 minutes to build an JeOS appliance was
| nuts so that was definitely the low aspect of the talk.

Chilean anti-piracy law drafted on pirated software
,----[ Quote ]
| Chilean lawyer Guillermo Frêne is having a bit of a bad
| hair day after it was revealed that draft legislation aimed
| at cutting the internet connections of illegal downloading
| ne'er-do-wells was presented in .doc format written on
| pirated software.
|
| The full outrage was exposed here, which shows that the
| firm of attorneys responsible for the document goes by the
| rather unusual name of "The houze"...

| Despite the 217 comments tabled

The day Chile was Bought by Microsoft
,----[ Quote ]
| Just today, a secret agreement
| between MS and the Chilean Government came to
| light. In it, every citizen was
| sold as a potential user of a Windows Live
| Spaces model where every SSN is
| linked to, overbypassing any privacy term and
| cashing Bill some bucks. It
| wouldn't be so awful to all if that agreement
| wasn't aprooved yet (Spanish follows).
