Today is almost coming to an end wrt talks and stuff like that, which will finish the second day of BSDCan (the official days), which started three days ago for Ed (mr TTY), Denise (my gf) and myself. We flew in through Heathrow towards Ottawa (very nice plane btw) and arrived in the middle of the day in Canada.

We went to the Royal Oak after settling down, we saw a couple of fellow BSDCan visitors in the plane already (like Poul-Henning said: 5 1/2 BSDCan visitors ;-)) and plenty of space to move around (not entirely full the plane, so we had not only three seats, but also used three other seats to talk etc).

In the Royal oak we had dinner, and talked a bit with a few developers, and headed to bed “early” (21.30 .ca time, which equals 03.30 .nl time); and we woke up between 0400 and 0600 am (first me, then Ed, and then Denise).

First day: Nice talks, BoF’s and good networking with all people. Ed did his TTY Presentation, which was received very well! People were excited and they discussed a few items with Ed, like Poul-Henning, Robert, Marcel (Moolenaar), Philip, and a few others :-). We again went to bed not that late, we were broken again!

Second day: Ed woke up too early again ;-), and we visited some nice talks again and again a couple of BoF’s, we skipped the Vimage part, because it was way over my head

Now heading for dinner (indian food if I saw correctly) and a few more days here.

More updates to follow..

So, I just returned from Tunesia with Denise and we both will be flying out to Canada within 2 days to visit BSDCan. We will be joining Ed Schouten (mpsafetty, facilitated by Snow BV) and Poul-Henning Kamp and Robert Watson in the plane towards Canada. Denise, Ed and myself will be flying under the Snow BV waiver, to show a bit of presence there

Ed will also be doing a talk, and I am sure that will go just fine.

BSDCan updates to follow when possible
