You are next!

Tokkee and I are doing the mugshots this year and we need your cooperation. Mugshots are a great way for people to link the name to a face and remember that link even after several years. Liw did this as his project last year and it was great success – many people have now a [...]

Debconf7 photos

My blog server has been down ever since I left off to Edinburgh for the 7th Debian conference. Since then I have been busy taking photos of everything and everyone here AND I am not alone in that. Enjoy!

Debconf – fun and motivation (and pictures)

Debconf is coming. And I fully agree with Amaya regarding the much needed battery recharge that brings to people (and me in particular. And to the contrary to the information two posts ago, thanks to getting an unexpected side income from the nice folks of FFII, I did manage to buy myself a Canon 400D [...]

Stuff happening

You know that you haven’t blogged in a while, when you realize that you have changed your address twice since the last post. Changes in my life since last post: * finished my Masters paper and submitted it, waiting for viva now :S * moved back to Latvia, lived for some time with parents (and [...]

Game On!

For the last couple weeks I have been concentrating on things related to my studies and on some events related to it. I posted pictures from these events on my Flickr photostream: a colleague from the institute finished his PhD and we had a goodbye dinner, my supervisor invited me to his son’s first birthday [...]

The I18N meeting in Extremadura is almost over – tomorrow everyone is leaving to the airport at different times. So, enjoy the group photo of the meeting.

In this [...]

Fun group photos

The next day after the main group photo we decided to try and make something that is more funny and more sunny, so we decided to try to make a group photo in the pool. The event was completely voluntary and meant more for fun. At first we tried to create a shape of the [...]

Debconf6 group photo AKA bits from the official Debconf6 photographer

After a bit of stress, sweat and tears (only from the rain) the annual Debconf official group photo has been created. Enjoy. PS. Later there will be a post about how the photo was created and other events that happened today, and maybe tomorrow there will be another Debconf group photo – a smaller, but [...]

Revisiting the summer

I recently uploaded these photos to a gratis stock photo site – MorqueFile for other people to use and that brought back all the good and warm memories of Debconf5 back again. So, enjoy the pictures, feel the summer, remember all the people that do not appear in these photos at all: P.S. Yes, MorqueFile [...]
