Yes, it's true! The moment you've all been waiting for! On 6th/7th October, once more Wine hackers from around the world will meet to eat, drink, make merry, and discuss the finer details of reimplementing the Windows API. This year it's Googles turn to host it, and it'll be at the engineering office in Zurich. You too can chill out with these awesome froods by signing up for the wineconf mailing list, and surfing over to: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2007 ... which is currently a bit sparse but will populate nearer the time. Fascinating talks! Interesting people! Hackfests galore ... and maybe even fondue! 6th/7th October. Be there or be square.

If anyone from the US is planing on attending and does not currently have your passport, you need to apply for it NOW. Due to insane US policy there is about a 3 month backlog on passport application processing. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Thanks for the heads up, Steven. Do you know whether that applies to passport renewals, too? --Juan ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for a deal? Find great prices on flights and hotels with Yahoo! FareChase. http://farechase.yahoo.com/

No problem....my son and new wife both don't have one so I am going to be bit by this. I assume it applies to everything including renewals. The recent changes requiring passport for re-entry from Canada, Mexico and the Bahamas have caused a 3 million application backlog. Apparently congress or DHS decided it would be a good idea to get everyone using them but did not allocate any additional agents to process the applications. The only solution I've read has been, to fudge your dates a little for when your trip is (line 18 on the application form) and then call and email the passport information center everyday after 3 or 4 weeks to get them expedite it (1-877-487-2778 / NPIC(a)state.gov). There is an extra fee you can pay to have it rushed but according to everything I've read that has not helped at all and even having someone from your congressman's office pester them has not helped to speed up processing. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Speaking of talks, as WineConf is a week after a couple of us attended the CIFS conference to talk some shop with the Samba folks, what do you think about a status update on the Wine/Samba cooperation front? I'd even volunteer to give it. Cheers, Kai -- Kai Blin WorldForge developer http://www.worldforge.org/ Wine developer http://wiki.winehq.org/KaiBlin Samba team member http://www.samba.org/samba/team/ -- Will code for cotton.
