GU4DEC Live On The Web

Programmers and others interested in the GNOME desktop environment gather annually for an event called GU4DEC, the GNOME Users and Developers European Conference. This year, there's extensive live coverage of GU4DEC (currently in progress, at Trinity College, Dublin) on the web, including a growing online photo album, audio recordings and video streams, and presentation materials. (The schedule is handy if you want to follow along.) I hope there's a similar sort of integrated documenation / dissemination from the upcoming KDE developers' conference at the Czech Republic's Nove Hrady.

Re:On the use of proprietary video streaming

[Miguel de Icaza]

ok real is a proprietary format theres no arguing that but the default install of Ximian Desktop 2 includes an integrated RealPlayer along with all the other net surfing necessities such as Flash, Java Runtimes, and a few other goodies that everyone should get in default OS installs but do not.

XD2 is available for all the most popular linux distros

out of interest what format would you suggest? Last time i checked the ogg video format had stabalised but wasn't ready for prime-time... are there any other contenders?

OK, I ADMIT IT, I AM THE BUNGI :^)

I just checked. Your right, that wasn't the real Miguel. The real Miguel has username: The Bungi (221687)

Dr Evil laugh!

I'm going to really start hunting you now. Whenever you post anything other than as AC, I'll reply with my "this is a known impostor troll" template until you stop or lose all your karma and have to post at -1.

lol, if i cared about karma would i be replying? Most of the time the mods are on the ball and MdI has terrible karma, this account (and even the IP address of my ISP) has spent weeks blocked from posting to /.after complaints from ximian! its much more of a challenge to post a carefully crafted troll at -1 to get modded up to +5. After Mono & SourceGear Move Forward MdI briefly had excellent karma... bothered?

No, this account is intended to create angry responses just like the ones you always provide. Thakyou kindly the bungi

Be very fucking afraid

please keep feeding me :^)

OK, CONFESSION: I AM THE BUNGI :^)
