No don't bring it, I remember this as the very bad book. :-)

I will bring the old book Cocoa Programming by Anuish, Buck and
Yacktman, which I still like best. Could somebody please ad this to the
Wiki, in case I cannot get working with the wiki sorted out?


I added it.

Cheers,

 Hi everybody,
 
 We need to know who can bring hardware for the fosdem's booth...
 here's what we *need*:
 
 - public computers for the booth -- ideally one running windows, one
 running linux/bsd, one running OS X -- could be laptops or not. Those
 mac mini do not take space in a luggage ;-)

Ideally, we could resolve much of these hardware issues using
virtualization - e.g. a single Mac Mini could run OSX + Windows,
effectively eliminating the need for a second machine. The only
remaining question is whether such a machine can run with a dual-head
layout.

Though I can't bring a big machine myself, I would be willing to donate
my old notebook (a crappy iBuddie 533MHz Transmeta and 256MB RAM). Also,
when I'm not doing any talks (I would like to have a single one anyway),
I'm willing to donate also my new notebook (a 15'' 1.5GHz Celeron M).
So the sum of hardware from me:

- 1 slow, but functional 533MHz Transmeta (I can install whatever is needed)
- 1 functional newer 1.5GHz notebook (running Linux + Windows in a VM)

 - external screen (if someone can bring a computer but not a screen,
 and someone else can bring a screen but not a computer... ;-) or even
 simply as a mirrored screen for a demo)
 
 - power extension cables
 
 - kensington cables could be neat too, though we never had any problems
 
 - a video camera for the devroom talks + ideally a tie microphone
 (else sound is really bad)
 
 - a video projector for the devroom (the fosdem guys will give us one
 anyway, but it would be better to have our own, trust me)
 
 If you're going to the fosdem and you can bring something on the list,
 please tell us :)
 
 Cheers,

Yes, that's true. I will have my own laptop too (a macbook pro) that I
could use for demos, and that can run all 3 OS if needed. I *might* be
able to bring an old ibook g3 600 running OS X... if I can bring it,
I'll possibly install debian on it. I'll know for sure soon.

cool, so we have at least one machine sure, dedicated to the booth,
and possibly a couple other (your laptop and mine) for demo...

no other volunteers ? :-/

thanks,

I would be curious to see it ;-) but if it's too heavy, don't take it...
I'll go by train so I can probably carry more..

Hi,

	I am a lurker on this list, not really using GNUstep as a whole but 
currently using part of it in my code. I might come to FOSDEM, will see 
this week end if I can.

12 iBook (G3), each of them is running Mac OS X 10.3 and/or maybe 
Linux. But each of them have some hardware issues so I won't rely on 
them alone for the booth. (a thermal sensor of the PB send him to sleep 
from times to time and the screen of the iBook need to be against 
something in order to display anything else than a red screen).



PS : to Nicolas or other french people on this list, avez-vous une idée 
sur un hôtel où passer la nuit ? Ce serait sympa de se regrouper non ?

Why specifically french speaking people?
I can't go, I french speaking, but why such a discrimination?
