FOSS.IN schedules now available - Almost 1600 registrants

FOSS.IN schedules are finally published, phew!

The conference is starting next Monday and this is living on the edge! This is the 7th year of the conference and I hope the scheduling is done little more in advance next year. This will allows us non-Bangaloreans to plan our activities around FOSS :)

I'll be giving "Packaging Java Applications for Ubuntu Platform" on Dec 4th, 4pm in A/120. See you there!

I'll publish the slides here after the talk.

Here are some other talks that I'd like to attend:

Date	Topic	Time
12/6, Thu	FOSS.IN inaguration	10:00am-10:30am
12/6, Thu	User to Hacker in 90 minutes: The Tools and Techniques needed to actually contribute to Open Source	3:30pm-5:00pm
12/7, Fri	The Virtuous Cycle: Sun's FOSS philosophy and strategy	11:30am-1:00pm
12/7, Fri	Hacking the Fox	3:30pm-5:00pm

I'd like to attend some talks on 12/8 but have to catch a flight in the afternoon. But otherwise the momentum is building pretty strong with almost 1600 registrants.

And then of course, you can find me around the GlassFish booth in the Expo.

Some more rant ...

There is no conference planner on the website. You already saw my workaround above :)
Why a Certificate is required for viewing individual session details ? Here is the certificate warning presented by Firefox:

At least get the certificate by a Trusted Authority :(
