Foss.in 2007 arrives

Yeah ! its again and its bigger. Foss.in 2007 is big on most counts and more importantly for me .its the number of days and money :-( .

Its spread of 5 days and i can tell you ,its too long.Two days seemed very ideal and perfect for me .And the other is the money ,to attend the entire event its going to take more than 1K and yes you always have the option to attend just the main conference but when you can learn so much and meet some really fabolous people there ,you really want to be there on all the days . i dont think thats going to happen .sad me :( but yesh i hope i get to see atleast the main conference thankfully its still priced at 500rs .

I know after i put up a media temple *wishlist* i was gifted one although by a family member ;) and now i put my second one here . An entry pass to the foss.in/2007 . anyone ?

And incase you are thinking 1000rs is too much ,i swear its worth more than that .You get to see some really good people and you get to hear from people who actually *code* than most speakers who pretend to are, talk about software management and software engineering ( i have listened enough of this thanks to 6th sem ) .

last year when myself and hari were there we got to hear people like Rasmus(the guy who created PHP) ,an indian kernel hacker ( she was the keynote speaker) and particpate in the many BoF sessions . And ofcourse the beautiful calender containing Kalyan varma’s photographs and the t-shirt .

I will be there surely atleast for the first two days ,if you intend to come then lets join up :-) .

like the new theme and good luck with the conference :) have fun!

wish i could come but 8 hrs journey reduces the whole idea to a joke. :/ sigh

anyway, hope to see you blogging live maybe? from the meet.
