So, foss.in/2007 is over.

It was fun, mostly with all that hanging around and fooling around in the stalls and expo areas. Plenty of swag – badges, stickers, CDs, caps, mugs, pens and ofcourse t-shirts (some got umbrellas too), lots of new people to meet, hellos and how ares with old ones, some awesomely amazing food  (courtesy ramkrishna) and friggin’ cold Bangalore.

Some highlights from the trip were the freedesktop sessions, lightning talks (well, I did not know potatoes in an omlette tasted so good), those hilarious jokes at the dining table every day, puliogare rice, an awesome linuxchix.org.in BoF, kushal’s weird way of clicking photos, the konqueror party, hogging sessions at food street, full halls, OLPC opening contests,  the-laptop-with-maximum-stickers contest, arguments at BoFs and ofcourse rusty’s finale. As always, foss.in organizing team and the volunteers did a great job. Flickr is flooded with photos.

And ofcourse there are all those stupid and witty jokes that hit you when you’re surrounded by a bunch of geeks. We’ll keep a summary of them for later.

Kde-in has revealed their fall 2007 (foss.in/2007) collection of posters. Excellent design, a “people” theme, and bright colors are the highlights of the collection. The whole line is released under the the kde-in brand and the license CC-by-NC-SA.

Check them out now!

Linuxchix.org.in is planning for a BoF at Foss.in/2007. Runa did the poster and banner (check ‘em out!), and Vid is helping with publicity.

If you are a linuxchix, or someone who appreciates what the global linuxchix does, and want to help with the Indian linuxchix, or have any ideas, please help us on the ideas and suggestions page, and of course, be there at the BoF!

The exact time and date (its on Dec 6th) of the BoF shall be put up as and when it is decided. Stay tuned.
