| akgraner | hey do you of you all know of any major Linux Events happening in March 2011 | 19:32 |
| akgraner | I pycon is happening | 19:32 |
| akgraner | but other than pycon - anyone know of anything else? | 19:33 |
| pleia2 | I still think we'll have flying cars in 2011, that's too far in the future for me to think about | 19:33 |
| pleia2 | morning akgraner :) | 19:33 |
| akgraner | pleia2, good morning - afternoon ?? something :-) | 19:33 |
| * pleia2 sips coffee | 19:33 | |
| akgraner | great interview by the way - almost finished with the edits | 19:34 |
| pleia2 | oh good :) | 19:34 |
| akgraner | but hard to take a break - (more corn to freeze) | 19:34 |
| maco | nothing on my calendar | 19:35 |
| dinda | anyone going to the Grace Hopper in October? Atalanta, I think? | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | can't make it, but wish I could! | 19:37 |
| maco | http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=h8nhc87h6h195lqj8i4l2jka90%40group.calendar.google.com | 19:38 |
| maco | akgraner: thanks for the pycon headsup. added it there | 19:38 |
| dinda | it just looks like an awesome conference | 19:39 |
| dinda | akgraner: no word yet on next year's TXLF | 19:39 |
| === DarkNemesis is now known as darkNemesis | ||
| akgraner | not yet | 19:40 |
| akgraner | I am working on another event for early next spring just trying to avoid scheduling conflicts | 19:40 |
| akgraner | also I need to know who is a database guru - MySQL is not the easiest light reading I have encountered | 19:41 |
| akgraner | I can't find one that does what I want it to so I need to just create my own.. I need some assistance or this is going to make me crazy... | 19:42 |
| jledbetter_ | phpMyAdmin? | 19:45 |
| daker | akgraner, if you want just to do simple things with Mysql | 19:49 |
| daker | try http://www.adminer.org/ | 19:49 |
| daker | jledbetter_, phpmyadmin is complete tool | 19:49 |
| akgraner | thanks I'll take a look - there is no really good Open Source Event management/planning applications out there - I have been searching for months now - driving me crazy :-) | 19:50 |
| akgraner | There are some great programs but none I am willing to sell a Kidney for | 19:52 |
| jledbetter_ | I thought there was a promising one. Can't remember it now. | 19:52 |
| jledbetter_ | akgraner: Do you have a list somewhere of what this application would do? | 19:54 |
| akgraner | jledbetter_, I do right now I manually generate everything - I can email you a list if you would like | 19:56 |
| akgraner | I need to be able to enter a group and based on the type of group it will give me a todo list and be linked to my contracts, proposals and to my email etc | 19:56 |
| jledbetter_ | akgraner: Sure. I thought I saw a neat open source helper when I was looking up how to do a barcamp. I can't find the bookmark though. | 19:59 |
| akgraner | right - I want to be able to have something when a group calls me and says - we want to do foo in bar city... then within 48 hours have them a proposal | 20:01 |
| akgraner | it's an idea based on new markets Delphi system that most hotels use | 20:02 |
| jledbetter_ | Because you already have bar city's contacts like hotels and such and a generic foo list in the db? | 20:02 |
| akgraner | I worked with the New Market folks migrating hotels over from a manual system to an automated system years ago - but it's not quite what I need | 20:02 |
| akgraner | jledbetter_, no b/c I can say this is what it will cost you to have me do it - and here is the list of things I will need to do for you | 20:03 |
| akgraner | however over time the various city's information will get populated | 20:04 |
| jledbetter_ | Ah hm. Yeah, I haven't seen that open source in my search. I saw stuff like "Event. Help with Registration/tracking." | 20:04 |
| akgraner | nods | 20:04 |
| akgraner | nothing for the event manager/planner - so I guess this is how people learn stuff- can't find what works so you learn to do it yourself :-) (I think I am really a geek now when my light reading is MySQL) | 20:05 |
| jledbetter_ | Hehe. Yes. :) | 20:06 |
| akgraner | so once I get this started - if anyone wants to help :-) let me know - I am going to be doing open source event management and planning... using open source tools as well as planning open source events... setting all the "professional business" part of it up is the hardest part | 20:06 |
| akgraner | planning/managing them is the easy part | 20:07 |
| AlanBell | would make a good quickly and desktopcouch app | 20:07 |
| jledbetter_ | AlanBell: Funny. I went straight to web app. I'm biased, I know. But you're right, this would be a good Quickly app. | 20:09 |
| akgraner | AlanBell, do ya think? | 20:09 |
| dinda | http://guadec.org/index.php/guadec/2010/schedConf/training | 20:10 |
| dinda | GNOME developer training - schweet! | 20:10 |
| AlanBell | yeah, it is document data rather than relational data | 20:10 |
| jledbetter_ | Unless one wants to delegate parts and have folks update the status of the part like a wiki. | 20:11 |
| jledbetter_ | I wonder if this could help locos too... | 20:11 |
| akgraner | AlanBell, once I get the 200th UWN issue in the can - and the new fridge stuff up - then I'd like to start on this application - no rush or anything I mean I've gone this long without it - but I'd be happy to write up the abstract on it and help where ever I can as I learn | 20:12 |
| akgraner | and when I say I - I am really meaning the whole news team when it come to UWN and Fridge | 20:14 |
| akgraner | Can I just say - I feel very empowered atm 2 years ago I would have purchased something and just said - I'll make it work for me somehow | 20:18 |
| akgraner | now I am like nope none of these work - guess I need to learn how to make something that will - How cool is that? | 20:18 |
| jledbetter_ | I was impressed with Quickly and hope it helps empower more people to scratch an itch :) | 20:18 |
| jledbetter_ | akgraner: Very cool :) | 20:19 |
| akgraner | at SELF the quickly talk/demo rick spencer did - was very popular.. people are loving it | 20:20 |
| czajkowski | is there anyone here from Camaroon ? | 22:21 |
