    Made it!

    People said it couldn't be done, but I've made my connection at Heathrow! Of course, my connecting plane is late now.


    Paint Mixing

    I hadn't time to blog about it yesterday -- much too busy attending the extremely interesting BOF track -- but, hey! Emanuele Tamponi has checked in his very first version of the color mixing palette. Using Tunde Cockshott's Wet & Sticky code as a guideline, he made sure that when you mix blue with yellow you get, indeed, green. Likewise red and blue gives purple!

    I'm on my way home now, in Glasgow's airport. Yes, it still smells of fire in places. The security checks took much less time than I'd thought, though, so I could conceivable have attended the first track of today's BoF sessions and still been in time. And wifi at aKademy might be patchy, but it is free. Here, I'm paying 4 or 5 pound per hour.

    Looking bad, I'm so glad I went. I finally met with Bart Coppens and Emanuele Tamponi in person. I had a lot of fun, learned that we did the right thing in our use of Interview in the Krita layerbox and how to handle gdb in Emacs. Great stuff, great people -- many new faces, which I think is great, too.
