Hi Tim & all,

coincidentally I came across this at just the time I was reading about your
talk


http://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/Android-malware-creates-3D-maps-of-rooms-1722353.html

a cunning app that makes use of the accelerometer and GPS apparently to get
where it is, and then stealthily takes photos which can be mashed up on a
server to create a 3d model. Clever...,

Ian,

No problem. I'm using an app (AndroSensor) to grab the data, most of the talk 
will be focussed on doing something with the data, displaying and 
understanding it. If you're interested in development of motion logging on 
Android, then the authors of the App would be worth contacting.

Cheers,

Tim B.

Hi Tim

Congrats on the new post.

I wont be able to make the talk on Android for Motion Logging. I would

Absolutely, well done. That was about the age I was when I became

I would like to thank Adam for doing a heoric job
through a time of adversity, with many other pressures on his time. 
My thanks

his direction.


Yes, thanks Adam. It's not an easy job, made harder when you want to 
step back but there's no-one to take over. Well done for persevering!

That would be great. I'm sure nobody want me to be the sole speaker over the 
next few months!

No need to feel bad. Family should come first.

See you in November.

Hi Tim,

I'm highlighting the paragraph above because I have been thinking about
that for a while. I also was going to suggest "lightning talk" style
format. For me, these talks make the LUG meetings more engaging and become
a talking point for further discussion.

I will try and "put my money where my mouth" is and whip up something for
November. I sadly could not attend the AGM for family reasons and felt bad
about it.

All the best for your term in office Mr Chairman!

Imran

Apologies for not making the AGM, family comes first. I wish you a 
following wind in your new role on the good ship HantsLUG on the choppy 
Linux waters.


Enough of that. Good luck!
