I'm here at ApacheCon in the downtown, Austin Hilton. I, of course, live in Austin, so the travel wasn't too bad.
Sally Khudairi has kindly introduced me to several people -- such as Sander Striker above -- and Sally and I had a fun lunch talking about getting more people involved with open source and a whole slew of other things.
Tomorrow, I'll be in Sally's tutorial ("Media/Analyst Training") for the last part as "the live, real analyst" to practice briefings on. That should be fun for me as it'll be 40-60 minutes of lightening briefings, each around 5 minutes, and, I hope, helpful to the participants.
I have a few other things schedule, but if you're here and you're interested in talking or just saying hello, feel free to contact me. What with being from here, I can tell you where to get the best BBQ, Tex-Mex, beer, oh, and maybe some RedMonk analysis and advice if you get enough of the brisket and enchiladas ;>
