Diego, el gnomo

I’m getting this sometimes at the venue:

Ah, the nostalgia.

We will have our traditional PiscoParty at the reception party (at the university) Wednesday night. We’ll make PiscoSour and if lucky Algarrobina.

Drop by and grab a glass, there’s not much so… keep an eye on the Pisco Crew members.

• FreeFA World Cup: All the fans of the most beautiful sport in the planet, deep lovers of the most important thing among unimportant matters. You are invited to come and join us in the fight for the supremacy, Tuesday 8th, at 17:00 in Ayazaga Spor Tesisleri (be ready at the university -the GUADEC venue- at 16:00, a bus will take us there).

  

• PiscoParty: Those among you that last year had the chance of enjoying the fun of making and drinking Pisco Sour, this year it’s not different. The Pisco Crew will serve you the finest cocktail of all GNOME. This time, with a special guest cocktail: Algarrobina.

  

• CheapBastardFoundation Annual Meeting: For the first year, we are getting together to discuss our world domination plans. You are free to join us, but be warned that you’ll have to prove your cheapness.

  

• The Latin American Complot: we can’t let those gringos get away with all the fun!. Let’s get together and discuss some ideas for our tasty and sunny continent.

Yay!. I’ll be seeing all you hippies from Saturday 5th (11pm) till Wednesday 16th (6am)!. I’ll be at the sponsored hotel as the cheap bastard I am.

Can’t wait to smellsee you all!

Like just published in evolution-hackers list:

I spent the last few days hacking a plugin to reply messages with
predefined replies, templates in my faulty english.

I don’t know what would be the ideal steps to follow now, should I try
to get it inside Evolution I guess? So far I have seen that I need to
anyway, given that it requires full evo source to build.

I didn’t want to import it in GNOME’s svn because I think I should get
it into Evolution rather than an independent module in svn, I
published it here:
https://launchpad.net/evolution-templates-plugin

Code is here:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~diegoe/evolution-templates-plugin/trunk/files

And I uploaded a .deb for Ubuntu hardy, i386 here:
http://www.gnome.org/~diegoe/stuff/evolution-plugins-templates_20080604-2_i386.deb
md5: a39118cd944032cbb844560b2a37b704

I’m anxious to get comments about it :).

Update: gunther asks for a screenshot.

I totally forgot how to fix this, so to not forget it again, here is it:

Add “$include /etc/inputrc” to your ~/.inputrc.

From lp #89235

I updated my ephy extensions page.

Go ahead, try them and send some comments!. I set up bzr repos for them, you can find instructions and urls in the page.

Also I must say that bzr is quite nice and simple, I’m using it to manage some projects and files and it’s quite cool. The push_and_update plugin is highly recommended.

The results of this year soc has been published: GNOME SoC projects.

And I’ll be mentoring Johan Svedberg in his project: Modern download manager for GNOME.

My frog bro was selected for Mono: Visual XAML Editor.

It will be a great experience!

Note: The local video canvas is blank because my driver sucks for screenshots, check the remote canvas and see that the n800 actually shows a remote video. Trust me on this one :).
