As reported "all over" the net now, Apple will go public with iPhone on 11. June. And that is not a coincidence, as that's the same day Apples developer conference WWDC starts.
And guess what - I ordered my tickets for WWDC yesterday - I will be there in the middle of the buzz, and report back right here on the blog on what's going on. I also figured out that Usenix Annual Tech will be the following week in Santa Clara. It is high time I go to the Annual Tech, so I will probably rent a car and drive down there, at least for a few days.
I'm looking forward to it already - it is always nice to be in San Francisco.
Btw, I don't think I will buy an iPhone. Really. It's probably not usable over here in Norway anyway, and it will lack a few things I really need. We'll see what happens if I get to hold it in my hands....

The nerds are gathered!
With the usual buzz and fuzz, Lisa'06 kicked off tonigth with a beginners BOF (with some oldtimers and not-so-oldtimers sitting in the back). The training chair Dan Klein delivered the goods as usual, with a lot of humor. Everyone feel welcome, there is plenty of sodas around, the wiki and irc-channel (#lisa06@irc.sage.org) is up - everything is in order. Quite a few of the crowd are heading over to a nearby place for something stronger than soda... others just go out for dinner. By the way, there seems to be about 1200 attendees this year. Not bad consider the topics!
Tomorrow morning, at 9:00, the real thing starts, with tutorial and training on lots of interesting topics, by fine lectures. I will start out with a light topic, on distributed source code management systems. We have converted from CVS to subversion, but folks are not satisfied, and have started looking into mercurial (Hg). I have to figure out what is the best option, and what this really is all about. Theo Ts'o (of linux kernel fame) will be the lecturer, so this should be really good.
After lunch I will attend intermediate topics in DNS admin. This is something I don't know much about, and want to look into. Maybe I have time for some reports tomorrow night.
Take care, folks.
