\n\t\tArrived in San Francsico yesterday, and had already met some Ubuntu people on the plane from
\nAmsterdam,
\n\tone hour later, we were at the hotel in Sunnyvale and things started to settle down. Had
\n\tsome Indian food that night and went to bed early (the day had already been more than
\n\t24 hours long in terms of hours being awake).<\/p>\n
\t\tThat resulted in me being quite fit this morning (despite the long trip yesterday),
\n\tand enjoying a good start of the Ubuntu Developers Summit at the Googleplex in Mountainview.<\/p>\n
\t\tThe Summit starts quite promising, the motto for Feisty, which we’ll be sketching this
\n\tweek is “make things just work”, and that includes some polishing of the multimedia, such
\n\tas getting ALSA to work nicely, codec installation, and more.
\n\t\tPeople from a lot of different groups came here, for example the guys from the Beryl

\n\tthen there’s Ivan from the OLPC team (he was my roomie at the last summit in Paris, so
\n\tit’s really nice to see him here again, he even waved around with one of those toy
\n\tlaptops :-)), of course people from the GNOME community (already saw dholbach around here,
\n\tgotta hug him later), Oliver from Edubuntu (already talked a bit during breakfast), and
\n\tof course lots of others.
\n\t\tThe industry is also quite well represented, SUN, Intel, Novell, ATi, Nvidia promised
\n\tto drop by, and of course our host Google. Leslie from Google welcomed us with free hugs.
\nThere’s
\n\tobviously some cultural overlap between KDE and Google. :-)<\/p>\n
\t\tMy personal agenda for this Summit includes topics such as getting Marketing of KDE and \t\tThen there were some introducing talks of Mark Shuttleworth, Scott James Remnant, Arrived in San Francsico yesterday, and had already met some Ubuntu people on the plane from Amsterdam, one hour later, we were at the hotel in Sunnyvale and things started to settle down.

\n\tKubuntu a bit aligned (and planning it in the first place), while looking forward to the KDE4
\n\trelease. I’ll of course also be discussing improvements in
\n\tpowermanager<\/a> (Luka is here, we finally met
\n\tyesterday night :-)), and I’ll be providing input to various other topics.<\/p>\n
\n\tMatt Zimmerman, Colin Watson, and other. And now, let’s get to work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
