* Lots of learnings! As I mention before, I tried to get festival-gu working with minimal hack of festival-te. I come to conclusion is it is now job of some what more attention and feedback from others regarding language specific stuffs. But, I also found that festival-te debian package also need to apply upstream patch(s) to work correctly. (see: bug: #404463). I also found solution of Kline to our IP from oftc.net’s IRC channels!
* I hardly sleep for 15 minutes in front of my lcd during event. Pizza was good and thanks to bigbazaar! Thanks to everyone for participation. We are planning to have next HackFest in starting of Feb. See also Nirav’s post about this.

Read a post about Mondrian - a code reviewing system that Python creator Guido van Rossum created at Google. (on Niall Kennedy’s blog) It looks very impressive. Unfortunately it is restricted to Google and not open source’d yet since it relies heavily on Google technology.
I have been doing some code reviews at work, and I think it would be wonderful to have such a system. Something that would work on top of SVN and uses SQLite, will be just about perfect.
I have myself not yet looked at other code reviewing tools, but would love to hear from people who’ve used some. What works, and what does not?

* You can download slides of my talk from here. Well, it is not much useful, if you’ve already attended the talk.
* My favourite quotes from the event:
“Crazy thing happens in blue tants” — AfC
“The whole world is going stupid” — Tim Pritlove, CCC
* I am currently struggling with ‘Makefile’ patch issue with libyahoo2. I don’t why but my patch seems not working
