The First Geek Wedding At a LinuxFest

At the Ohio LinuxFest yesterday, two Linux geeks were married — or had their projects merged into a single trunk, as the officiant, Lord Drachenblut, put it. The wedding of Randy Noseworthy (proprietor of the Juiced Penguin) and Janet Edmonson was announced last week and was live-tweeted by at least one attendee — here's his photo of the happy couple. There's also a video of the ceremony, at which Jon "Maddog" Hall offered a blessing via pre-recorded audio.
Update: 09/26 20:03 GMT by KD : In the comments, anyaristow notes that this wasn't the first such wedding; Rob Landly and Fade were married at Penguicon in 2007, with Steve Jackson officiating and Eric Raymond as best man.

    Post your pics on the internets - don't expect people shit roses on you. They are butt ugly, anyone can see it and while I'm polite enough not to say it to their face and ruin their moment, I don't see anything wrong with telling the truth anyone can seee on an unrelated bbs post-factum.
