c2k8 General Hackathon (Part 5) - June 7-15, 2008, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

I had the pleasure of working beside Todd Fries (todd@) for my second hackathon. Two years ago at c2k6, we were working on ipsecctl testing together. Even then, he was a heavy IPv6 user. I would also wager a bet that he uses his Zaurus more than any other developer (mcbride@ is a close second) and I don't mean for building snapshots or packages.

c2k8 General Hackathon (Part 4) - June 7-15, 2008, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

All those of us who wished to go on the hike were told to be downstairs and ready by 06:00. Surprisingly, everyone made it in time; however, at about ten minutes to six, Theo came down from the hacking room looking seriously sleep deprived. He noticed that Artur Grabowski (art@) was alone, outside, waking up in the cold drizzly Canadian morning air whilst getting his morning dose of nicotine before the four hour long car ride. On his way out to talk to Art, Theo muttered, "Art's going to love to hear this." It was just the two of them outside now and they both looked concerned. Art lit up another one and by now most of the group had congregated outside ready to depart. Was there going to be a change in plans?
