FOSDEM 2009

FOSDEM 2009 was a remarkable edition : it featured one of the most interesting talk sets ever, almost up to the point where I regretted not attending the Saturday. It was, as I realised myself suddenly, the edition where cloud computing was prevailing in Open Source : high-availability, database shards and distributed filesystem replication.
Defining your agenda is probably the most difficult task when attending FOSDEM; here's my tracklist :



  • What's new in Drupal 7 ?

  • MySQL-HA

  • Poor man's SAN with CentOS and gPXE

  • OpenSuSE on netbooks

  • SysLinux

  • Ext4

  • Database shards at Netlog




Also spotted : lots and lots of netbooks (me too !), and a first IRL view of an Android device. Neat !
