I had fun today.

acme, epx, andreas and I were invited to give a IRC talk today on the future of Linux distributions. Very entertaining, and the first time I did such a thing. The whole talk lasted more than two hours. acme talked about Conectiva history, epx talked about CUPS, aRts and his initscriptsNG proposal (which you should check out). Then I went to talk about apt - maybe this wasn't exactly what the discussion should be all about, but people seemed to want to hear about it. This is where I started to talk endlessly about a bunch of disconnected facts, with a English do bad I'll probably be ashamed for years to come. andreas discussed briefly about security issues and apt, but I basically stole everyone's right to talk with my bad, overly long speech. Maybe next time I'll have more experience and can manage to speak less and more concisely. But at least it was fun :)
