Well it has been a while. I have been away in Norwich a lot and then took a week off to see my folks. All in all having a week away from work was great.
As part of my week off I went to the UK Gentoo linux conference in Salford. This was a great oppurtunity for me to meet Gentoo developers and discuss the furure of Gentoo. I also saw applications of Linux and Gentoo that I had never even imagined. On the down side some of the geeks there gave geeks a bad name. These were the hardore SS nazis of geeks, I won't go into details but it is a shame that some people see knowledge as something to rub in peoples faces, rather than sharing.
I have recently built a laptop of my own using Gentoo, so if I ever get wireless working I should be able to post more frequently.
I realise this post isn't on the usual subject of inane chatter that is usual, but it is a subject that I am passionate about. Maybe even to top the point of volunteering some of my time to the Gentoo project.
I will be back soon with inane chatter.

Get people like that everywhere, but it does seem a shame when they're the drivers behind projects which are supposed to be about sharing knowledge and expertise for the benefit of everyone, for free.
