Re: GUADEC 2016 pictures

Hey, I forgot to say this earlier (hat planned to mention it during the opening). In German law people have a right to their own picture. This means that–unless certain conditions are met–it is not legal to publish the picture of any person without their consent (distribute or show publicly).

Re: GNOME is people

Hey Tobias, He took pictures of people during guadec, which is why there were repeats. I don't know what photo mosaic software he used, though it was eleven years ago so I wouldn't be surprised if state of the art has changed. However, easy enough to ask. Jonathan On Aug 18, 2016 9:20 AM,
