Once again the day went smoothly. More mini-confs occurred and went very well. The SysAdmin mini-conf was particularly notable because a) I got to TWO whole sessions (though I missed Luke’s lightning talk on Puppet) and b) because it was packed. So packed that it needed to be moved to the PLT. Many thanks to Arjen for being so understanding about moving the MySQL mini-conf. I got to run madly around and see tiny pieces of the other mini-confs - which all looked pretty cool. I even read a couple of Kernel mini-conf slides which made little or no sense to me. :) Rest of the day went madly by and all of a sudden it was evening. Avi and I drove down to set up the Speakers Dinner venue. The venue (now not a secret) was the Chapter House room in St Paul’s Cathedral - very cool - and appropriate given our presence tonight at the Night Market or Night Bazaar…. :) A great night ensued and a few keen speakers drank their way onto Lily Blacks. I didn’t last long. Though whilst there I am fairly sure I incoherently rambled about development methodologies to someone from the Blender project and then the pros and cons of IRC as a support tool. But due to extreme lack of sleep I lasted one drink before my bed claimed me. Of course, insomnia actually claimed me and I was forced to read the new Kitty Norville novel until my body agreed sleep was a good idea. Up at 6.00am for Day Three and the conference proper…
