LCA2011 Day 1

Well, here I am.  Just registered and watching the stream flowing into the rego desk.  It’s not a queue, it’s the whole alphabet.  The only queue I’ve seen longer recently was the one to the checkout at the local shopping centre just before the flood peak.

Journey between The Gap and Kelvin Grove along Waterworks Road/Musgrave Road (to the Normanby Fiveways) took a bit over an hour, had a good conversation on the Mt. Cotton repeater, but evidently I’ve got a connection issue with the antenna.  That, and a bump just severed the connection between the battery and fuse holder, so I shall be riding home in silence tonight.  (Not the first time this has happened either.)

Not sure what to expect today, being my first time, guess I’ll find out.

On other news, Gentoo/MIPS I Big-endian stage 3 got uploaded last night.  Builds for other ISA levels continue.
