When the announcement came itself, I was so exciting about this event. My participation to the opensource community has been just started a year ago, even though I am stepping in to the eighth year of my IT career. Still I have little hesitations in meeting people around and communicate with them.

This event actually opened me a up a little. On the first day of the event I had missed the Soumya Deb’s first session.

The next session was about the Open Stack. The session cleared up some long time misunderstood perspectives of cloud computing. My self has enjoyed this session verymuch. I came to know from this event only that the OpenStack guys are meeting in Chennai regularly.

The ANTLR session, I was completely blank during this session, without knowing the applications of it. I had tried very much to follow this session.

Then we had a nice lunch with my favorite Paruppu Podi at an Andhra mess near by 🙂

Ravishankar had opened the session after the lunch. Very informative, for people who would like to go as freelancer. I am meeting Ravi for the first time, and the wikipedia team is the one who are very enthu in there. Ravi and myself has exchanged couple of mails we both know our names. Ravi is still fooling people with his way back profile photo. 😉 Also met Yuvi Panda the Terror for the first time.

Soumya’s Firefox OS session was good and I liked the way he addressed the questions.

The second day was started so amazingly by the wiki team. The CLICK session, the guys did the wonderful presentation, followed by Bala’s talks on wikipedia and how that works.

Then starts the hackathon, this is the second hackathon I am attending and finishing it with out doing any thing useful. The Plivo guys were roaming and don’t know where they had gone after sometime. I had explored Plivo api’s and able to make a outgoing call to SIP endpoint while at the hackathon. I have a doubt whether Plivo guys attended the hackathon had used to their API. Really they had cool api.

But I feel I should have done some thing other than that useful there. And also feeling a bit guilty now for not interacted with all of the guys out there.

More events like this needs to be organized. I really got good inspirations and stickers and badges. 🙂
Thanks for Shrini for a click of me 🙂
