Red Hat Exec Marries A Couple At Red Hat Summit (cio.com)
On the second day of the Red Hat Summit this week, attendees found themselves invited to a wedding during one of the general sessions. The groom was Matt Hargrave, a Red Hat client from Texas, and, it probably goes without saying, a huge fan of the company. The bride was Shannon Montague, a sign language interpreter, and "maybe the most understanding bride ever," jokes Slashdot reader itwbennett:
"Pushing a commit to github isn't the same as committing to a life partner. There is no forking this project," Red Hat EVP Paul Cormier told a Texas couple, as he united them in holy matrimony... Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst was ring bearer. You can watch the ceremony on YouTube.
"After today your relationship will have newly architected infrastructure. And, of course, collaboration is...critical." I'm wondering if Slashdot readers can suggest more geeky marriage vows -- or have any other geeky wedding stories to share.

When we take a furtive break from our labors to admire the carefree cavortings of our betters.

Seeing as most weddings are really for the families, especially the moms, of the bride and groom, I think it is great that this couple did something clearly more for themselves.
Why is this pathetic submission on the front page? Why wasn't one of the numerous relevent and intelligent submissions in the Firehose selected instead of this dumb submission?

Aside from the obvious joke, that there definitely will be lots of "forking" going on in the bedroom, it's easy to fork a github project.
"Transparent" is a shit show that trades on every stereotype going. A man in drag is NOT a transsexual.
This is truly a geek moment, and double landing on slashdot
I wish them the best, but I fear for their future.
Perhaps my sample size is too small, but my impression is that marriages that start with such frivolous wedding ceremonies tend to not last that long.
Made those in attendance chuckle, and so perfectly fit my wife's and my personalities.

I'd have to say this was probably the geekiest proposal I've ever seen...
Thanks to the War on Drugs, it's easier to buy meth than it is to buy cold medicine!
Undoing a commitment to a life partner, half of them end in divorce anyway.
I'm sorry, I thought this site was about news that matters.
I'm sure there is a lot of forking going on.
A number of years ago two Feds got married at DefCon (2007).

Last November back in Korea, Starcraft competitor Nada married his long time gf in the middle of a tournament.

Mine were divided into lines, with each line having a number of words equal to the line's number in the fibonacci sequence. I think the last line was 89 words.
That's illegal. Oh, wait, you mean he officiated their wedding.

My wife and I got married at the Wagnalls Memorial Library in Lithopolis, OH. Not the geekiest option but we liked it a heck of a lot better than a church or some random park.
According to the /. headline, yes, I count three.
RedHat Exec - 1
Couple - 2
Total - 3
I didn't know of supreme court ruling on this one!!
Afterward, Matt was heard to say "I've got all my Indian colleagues beat now. They're always talking about how they had 1000 or 2000 people at their weddings. Let's see them beat this!"
that is fucking sad. don't they have a family and friends?
Timothy was all about the LGBTBBQ
All three of them have already been fucked by systemd . Whats the point of getting married?
"You can watch the ceremony on YouTube."
Oh yeah, I'll get right on that. On second thought, hell no.

Red Hat Exec Marries A Couple At Red Hat Summit
Am I the only one that thought this story was about a polygamous marriage, where the Red Hat exec got married to two people?
There is no forking this project," Red Hat EVP Paul Cormier told a Texas couple
On the contrary. I expect that there will be lots of forking on their wedding night, and likely quite a bit during the honeymoon as well.
Not a civil ceremony?
This is just sad, I'm sorry. To link your private life and marriage to a corporation? Even the larger subject of Open Source... really, still sad. If your marriage isn't about the other person, front and center, then what are you doing? WTF does Red Hat or any other corporate entity have to do with it?
Guys, let's think about the festive side of this post! I like weddings! That's lovely! Diamonds can win a heart of your loved one as well as can they reassure her of your lasting love. Are there any Aussies here? You should visit http://www.kushdiamonds.com.au... store to get the real feeling of the beauty and style! I had an overwhelming experience at my sister's proposal dinner, and her husband got the ring from this store. It's shining with all the colors of love, believe me
