Slackathon 2009

Contributed by jj on from the openbsd-tube dept.

The Slackathon 2009 conference was held at the Stockholm University at the 15th of August, following the Filesystem/VM Hackathon 2009.

The number of attendees increased over previous years and as always the event was a great success. Hot off the heels of the f2k9 many OpenBSD hackers including project founder Theo de Raadt attended the event. Some of them gave talks which we were allowed to publish online. So without further ado, here are some of the talks from Slackathon 2009.

Do mind that the raw movies are huge, so hit youtube if your bandwidth comes at a cost or you dont want to kill a small country's worth of internet this year. Thanks to Chris Cappuccio for providing the north american mirror!

Janne Johansson would like to thank everyone that helped out during the Slackathon, including Johan@ & Isabella, Maria Högberg, Vladimir Bogodist, Simon Lundström and a few more he's sure to have forgotten to mention. Thanks to all the speakers, the donors, and everyone that bought the original slackathon T-shirts and stuff from the cafeteria, as usual every single coin from those went to donations.

    Is any one else having problems playing the Active Active PF video from the north american mirror. It seems half way through the video any player I use it crashes. I've tried redownloading the file, same thing at the same point in time, it's just after the first question is asked mid-talk.

      I haven't tried the copy on the N.American mirror and don't really want to download it to try, but you could give the version on youtube a go, the video quality is still great (use "youtube-dl -b <url>" or "yt <url>", both are in ports).

      I'm having problems w/all of the videos from the NA mirror except for thib.mov

      They downloaded fast, but all of them cut out on me before the end of the presentation.

        Sorry, I guess my downloads of the files cut out early. I haven't had time to actually watch them yet. I just re-downloaded dlg.mov and so you can try that again. Working on the rest but it will probably take some time.

    Can I resume a mpeg video download? Everytime I try it (wget) I get to the beginning.

    All presentation were very interesting. And Bob is such an hilarious person.
    I'm so happy that OpenBSD is keeping my p0rn secure :)
