From a workshop at GNUnify
I’m writing this entry while attending a Font development workshop by Karunakar & Ravi. The day went pretty well, with my presentation kickstarting the Localization track in Room 407 
Everything went perfect, except that…
- The projector did not picked up my ATI display
- I had to give Fedora’s presentation on a Suse machine – thank god, it was atleast Linux!
- The Suse machine did not had any Indic fonts installed besides Hindi font
- Rendering in Suse was broken – probably it was using an older version of libicu (OO.org)
- OO.org presenter was crashing every time I was escaping from the presentation mode
- I had no root access to the machine, the machine’s owner was too nervous to enter it rightly
- I was unable to run most of my examples as I had no root access to install the translations
- SCIM was not in sight – not installed
Anyways, nothing hampered the presentation 
Things went pretty nicely with quite a lot of discussion during the presentation, though I had expected more.
I sincerely thank the GNUnify team for the event & for inviting me (& Red Hat) for a talk
Okay… back to the event, there’s an interesting presentation on “Debugging with GDB” coming up at 4pm!
PS: BTW, I was about to attend a presentation – “Web Automation & Testing with Sahi” – but the moment I entered the hall, I saw the guys configuring a Windows machine & I knew that it was time to leave for another presentation! Ramky has taken some interesting shots of the scene, I’ll add them as soon as I can grab them
Event’s pictures to come… stay tuned!
