Tomorrow I’ll fly to Gran Canaria to attend this great event and I got lots of good expectations since it’s gonna be my first GUADEC.
I hope to attend many conferences and hang out with fellow Igalians and friends.

A lot of important names in our world of Open Source and particularly, Open Desktop will be there so it can only be great!

I’ll give two talks in there. A lightning talk about my OCR project — OCRFeeder — and another one that gives a practical view on the new Hildon (or “The Fremantle Way”).
By the way, I used ReStructured Text to do my presentation (using the rst2odp script) and save time from using Open Office. You should try it too.

So, thanks to my dear girlfriend everything is packed already (I always think my socks time-traveled to Narnia), the camera battery is charged, presentations are finished and I’m ready to go — I don’t mention my laptop because we’re “symbiotically” connected and where I go “he” goes.

Hope to see you there!

Give it a chance if you want to check a great graphical environment.

Congratulations to all the folks involved in this excellent new version of KDE, keep on the good work!

KDE 4.0 Release Candidate 1 was announced on last November 20th and they also released the final version of the KDE Development Framework. If you’re a KDE user, give it a shot and try to install it on your Linux box or test this openSUSE Live CD already with it.

Even though it seems interesting and good looking, I think I’ll stick to my beloved GNOME
