Stuttgart: GUADEC Day 3

Today was the final day of GUADEC 6. As is always the case, the day after any social event is usually a little subdued but there was still much going on.

Probably the biggest part of the day was the announcement that Nokia would be selling 500 of the new Nokia 770’s to GNOME developers at $99 each and all of the proceeds would go directly to the GNOME Foundation. That’s just fantastic and a big boost to the GNOME community.

My presentation (actually I was part of a panel) was today as well. We started with about 20 people and ended up with about 40 total by the end of it although I imagine a lot of folks were coming in ahead of Glynn Foster’s presentation … -) I think it went pretty well and I have to thank Hans-Ulrich and Katy for making it go off so well.

I managed to get a few more pictures up today with the closing of the conference.

Now I start my long journey home … just about 24 hours from now I should be arriving in Seattle … can’t wait to get home and see the family! -)

I’m off to bed and will be blogging more upon my return. Much to share about the GNOME community.
