Pickup directions
by Mike McCormack Jan. 26, 2004

Jan. 26, 2004

Hi All, For those being picked up, or trying to arrange a meeting place, take a look at the following map(s): http://www.mspairport.com/MSP/Travelers_Guide/Terminal_Maps/Lindbergh/Bagga… http://www.mspairport.com/MSP/images/maps/Terminal_Maps/baggage_Claim_L.gif There's a Starbucks between exit doors 5 and 6 next to the International arrivals. I suggest people meet at door 6 next to Starbucks. If you've arranged to be picked up, then exit door 6 is a good location. see you all soon, Mike

Details, details, details

Hi folks, Now that it's the last minute, we're finally starting to move on Wineconf <grin>. So, a few things. First, if you have registered, and you *cannot* make it, please let me know asap. We're trying to get accurate head counts for dinner reservations and donut buys and such. Second, we're starting to think about transportation and other issues. Mandi Gagne, our CNG (Chief Non Geek), has agreed to serve as the transportation czar. She's going to help coordinate everyones transportation. Now, if you've already figured out how to get yourself from the airport to wherever you're staying, great. If you'd like a bit of help, though, we're prepared to swarm the airport with friendly CodeWeavers chauffeurs. Here's the plan: if you need a ride from the airport, please email Mandi directly (mandi at codeweavers dot com). She'll coordinate things for you and give you her cell as a backup. If you are renting a car and would be willing to *give* rides, please also email Mandi. Next, fyi, we're chatting a fair amount in #wineconf, and I think we'll keep that open through the conference. Finally, I think we're going to plan an informal get together for dinner + libation on Friday night. I don't know where, or when, or any of that stuff (and I may not be able to join in for long myself). Do any of the locals on the list have any suggestions? If all else fails, I would think that meeting at Jillians at the Mall or somesuch would be good fun. Cheers, Jeremy

Access to the outside or local storage
by Vincent Béron Jan. 25, 2004

Jan. 25, 2004

Hi all, I'll be bringing a burrowed laptop to wineconf, and the agreement is that I don't put stuff on the HD. With a LiveCD, that's not a big problem to use the computer, but to do something useful during wineconf (build Wine, hack/use it, etc.), I'll need either some access to my box here over the Internet, or I can bring a 9GB SCSI HD to put in a local box over there, if there's a computer to which it can be hooked up. Which one is the preferred way for you guys? Also, I recall something about "wireless preferred" for the LAN, but that laptop doesn't have any 802.11 gear, only 10/100 Ethernet. Will that be available onsite? Thanks and see you on Friday night/Saturday morning, Vincent

WineConf - ShmServer talk

Jan. 21, 2004

Hi All, So, I've just booked my ticket to WineConf 2004, though my stay will be a bit limited, due to some other obligations around the same time (I'll arrive around 1:30pm on the 31st, and leave around the same time on the 1st). If there's time available, I would love to be able to give a brief chat about the ShmServer concept and discuss some of our work in that area (http://www.transgaming.com/papers/shmserver.html) Take care, -Gav -- Gavriel State Co-CEO & CTO TransGaming Technologies Inc. gav(a)transgaming.com http://www.transgaming.com Let the games begin!

ReactOS at WineConf
by Vizzini Jan. 15, 2004

Jan. 15, 2004

I saw a posting in the digest that someone thought nobody from ReactOS will be there. I think at least Mark Tempel, Steven Edwards, and I will be there. I'd be happy to work with Jan on Captive while I'm there. -Vizzini

I will come with a Firewire-to-ide external box. Are there any extra IDE drives?

Key signing party at wineconf
by Shachar Shemesh Jan. 9, 2004

Jan. 9, 2004

Hi all, I'm organizing a key signing party at wineconf. Anyone who wishes to participate, please email me the following details: Your full, real, name. It is not possible to participate in a key signing party using a nickname or a virtual identity. Sorry. Your key's fingerprint. Your actual key. Again, the key must have your real name on it (I am talking public key, of course. You should never send your private key to anyone). I am going to compile the list of names into a keyring and post it to a public key server. If, for any reason, you wish your key to remain unpublished (highly unrecommended), please note so in your mail. For more info about GPG key signing parties, check out the howto at http://www.cryptnet.net/fdp/crypto/gpg-party.html Shachar -- Shachar Shemesh Lingnu Open Systems Consulting http://www.lingnu.com/
