Social thread #10, Software Freedom Day

[pauamma]

So it's been 6 weeks since the last social thread. What have you guys been up to?

Also, I just found out through http://wordpress.org/news/?p=2058 that this coming Saturday is Software Freedom Day, and that WordCamp Portland 2011 is making space available to developers from other open-source projects. Quoting from the blog entry:

Welcome Free Software Projects! Normally WordCamps are 100% focused on WordPress, but in light of Software Freedom Day, the WC PDX organizers, in conjunction with the WordPress Foundation, would like to extend an invitation to all free software projects to participate in WordCamp Portland. There are a couple of rooms set aside that can be used for unconference sessions and/or hacker rooms for other projects. It would be great to have local representatives from a bunch of projects there — almost a micro version of OS Bridge or OSCON — to maximize the free software love and cross-pollinate ideas. Developers from other projects are also welcome in the WP hackathon room if they’d like to pitch in. Saturday will also feature the Software Freedom Day Happy Hour at the end of sessions. For more information or to get your project involved, contact the event organizers via the WordCamp Portland website or email support at wordcamp dot org.

Is anyone in the Portland area planning to attend?

I've been playing with cooking, salads in particular!

I've also been knitting a lot (mostly things that are to be gifts) :-)

And, and, cleaning up my room because I have an aunt flying in from the USA, and staying as a roommate next week.
