Fosdem 2008 Saturday morning

| 1 Comment

I'm attending FOSDEM again this year and already met a few of my fosdem friend, one of them just reminded me that this was the 5th edition of fosdem I was attending. I'm sitting in chavanne, the biggest room (around 1,5 k places) listening to a "How a large scale project works" by Robert Watson from the FreeBSD project. The talk is not really technical but gave a few interesting thing about the social aspect surounding the development of the operating system.
The previous presentation was on the use of linux by the film industry and all the studios use linux in render farms and also on the desktop, some of the visual effect from known films where shown - that part was very interesting, but the rest of the talk was actually quite boring. So seeing what was added and not noticing it was really nice. Also learned that each frame is rendered independantly from all other frames.

Actually you were sitting in Janson, not Chavanne :)
