The Debconf team just announced that registration is now open for next year's Debconf7, to be held in Edinburgh next June.

The preparations seem to go at good pace, and they already have a Travel wiki page with information so attendees can start looking for the best option for them. I am delighted to see they have been thinking about every case out there and it will be possible to swim all the way over to Leith, not even getting a bad cold.

Thanks! This of course is yet another reason to plan ahead so I don't miss out, like last year in Mexico. Erinn, remind me about it in late May or so, mkay?

Via Mako and Mika I learned about the discovery of a living close relative of GNOME's GEGL. Her name is GECS for obvious reasons, lives in China and she seems to be very happy with her blue daddy.

Cow or goat, equally cute!
