      @bkuhn really sad and broken if conferences the central way to get involved in free software. I hope you're wrong.

      Also, mine came with this awesome lucite trophy that had 1-0-∞ engraved internally. And it lights up. That's worth it, right there.

    Ugh, the !OSCON opening music was loud & annoying. I'm old, I guess. @edd and Sarah are introducing opening keynotes.

      The OSCON identi.ca oversight was because of last minute staff changes. I'm going to remind folk of its importance.

      @bkuhn when I were a lad #Idlewild was usually called "Kennedy Airport", not "JFK". Such an error would have been less likely then.

    Lawyers are unabashedly self-promotional. A lawyer on !OSCON panel say that you shouldn't make any #swpats decisions w/out hiring a lawyer.

      I disagree. For many small companies, their patent portfolio helps sweeten the deal when potential acquirers come around.

      Why is @sabdfl playing "Let's get it on" to the !OSCON audience from the keynote stage? I guess he wants to "get it on" with the audience?

    Tim O'Reilly argues in !OSCON keynote that for-profits take more from FLOSS than they give back. If he believes that,why's he anti-copyleft?

            Cool thing about Grand Jury: it's 23 people, only 16 needed for quorum. Judge told me clearly I could miss for scheduled trips, like !OSCON.

            My #Grand_Jury isn't meeting today. This is definitely convenient way to serve jury duty; not schedule-disruptive like a petit jury can be.
