[15:53] <berriop> hi ogra, are you there??
[15:54] <ogra> with half an eye
[15:54] <berriop> :)
[15:54] <berriop> ok I will go straight to the point then
[15:55] <berriop> I work for the London South Bank University, UK
[15:56] <berriop> we are gonna held a conference about thin computing on june/july 2009
[15:56] <berriop> we are looking for some potential lecturers / speakers
[15:57] <berriop> who are into thin computing projects development
[15:57] <ogra> well, stgraber, sbalneav, me ...
[15:58] <ogra> but also nubae or LNs would surely be able to talk about it
[15:58] <berriop> would you be interested in give a presentation?
[15:58] <berriop> ok, kool
[15:58] <stgraber> I'm doing ltsp thin client deployment
[15:58] <stgraber> clustered ltsp that's
[15:58] <berriop> ok
[15:58] <nubae> I can talk about fat clients
[15:58] <berriop> i write down all names
[15:58] <berriop> nice to see you would be interested
[15:59] <nubae> and sugar on ltsp
[15:59] <stgraber> we're developping ltsp-cluster here (and pushing it upstream now) we have some >4k thin clients networks
[15:59] <stgraber> mainly school boards
[15:59] <stgraber> *school districts
[15:59] <berriop> I think we need around 4 or 5, maybe more
[16:00] <berriop> nice, I write down your usernames, I hope i can find you on launchpad or related sites
[16:00] <nubae> berriop: all ubuntu based, or other distros too?
[16:01] <berriop> any distro
[16:01] <nubae> then vagrantc and warren too
[16:01] <berriop> its not oriented to any special distro
[16:01] <berriop> ok
[16:01] <berriop> here is the link of the faculty http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/esbe/
[16:02] <ogra> #ltsp would then have been the better lace to ask
[16:02] <ogra> *place
[16:02] <ogra> there you can find devs for ll distros
[16:02] <ogra> *all
[16:02] <ogra> the channel here is pretty ubuntu centric
[16:02] <berriop> yep i can guess it, i was gonna ask there after here
[16:03] <berriop> thanks
[16:03] <ogra> i have no clue about my travelling dates in june/july yet, else i'd say yes
[16:03] <berriop> I am an ubuntu user, so I asked here first
[16:04] <nubae> lots of stuff will work mainly on ubuntu I guess (ltsp-cluster, local apps, fat client, etc)
[16:06] <berriop> ok, We are finishing the portfolio, once its done I will email you the exact titled
[16:06] <stgraber> ogra: I guess we'll have the UDS (end of May, early June ?) and then the LTSP hackfest (July ?), that's at least what I have scheduled for June-July
[16:07] <ogra> stgraber, we also have an llhands meeing from that company around that time
[16:07] <ogra> and i dont know what mobile tasks might still come
[16:08] <berriop> i see u are really busy then :)
[16:08] <nubae> is the lecture just on thin client systems?
[16:09] <berriop> anyway we ll try that the dates will not b the same as another related conf or meetin
[16:09] <berriop> it is about thin clients and grid computing
