Free Electronic Lab

Opensource EDA software development, some thoughts about the EDA/Semiconductor industry and Mixed-signal integrated circuit design

LinuxTag/FUDCon Berlin 2009 – Sunday


Saturday night/Sunday morning, from 02h00 to 03h00 I prepared my slides.

On sunday, I was the only one scheduled for a presentation, while the day was reserved for hackfests. I wanted to take the opportunity (since there are Fedora contributors from various continents) to report back to the community about the progress made behind Fedora Electronic Lab.

Normally, I use PDF for my presentations. But that I was using the slides directly from openoffice3.1. I was surprised with the beamer features it has.

Most of the heads whom I was hoping to attend my Report were not present, I changed the orientation of my Report towards a presentation instead. It is sad, because many people know of FEL as just a collection of EDA tools, which it absolutely not the case. I said this couple of times before. After my presentation, Fedora Italians, Greg, Max,Jeroen and I had a chat in the park about a new way of marketing via Xuropa.

Bert, Jeroen and I spent some time on the spin maintainers’s reponsibilities and wikipages. Wow, Fedora wiki got a lot features since I was heavily using it during the time of Kadischi.

FUDCon is always an exciting moment for a Fedora contributor. I always enjoy good moments with Fedora EMEA members, whom I have great respect for. A big thank you to MaxSpevack, GeroldKassube, JoergSimon and the rest of the Fedora Linuxtag crew for making this FUDCon a success.
