I’ve been at OSCON 2008, and I’ve been keeping pretty good notes on the tutorials I’ve attended. GitHub has a great feature if you take notes in rdoc, making nice HTML when it’s viewed online. Here’s some links to my notes:
This talk was alright, but it wasn’t really tailored for people who hadn’t used Postgres extensively. Yet, I’m sure the notes will come in handy in the future.
This was an awesome talk. He went through designing an actual working application using Django. It turns out to be incredibly easy to quickly create a really cool application. I need to research this because it looks to me to be better than Rails.
This talk was alright if you wanted to get an idea about the challenges of multi-threading and how Intel’s TBB solves some of them. It was interesting, and I learned a few things, but it would have been a better session than a tutorial (LONG!)

Here’s the epic apology email from THE MAN HIMSELF!:
Hi All,
First of all I just wanted to say I apologize for the emails I sent. As of today I promise to stop the Email marketing campaigns. And I do believe it was a very…very..stupid mistake, this is the result of working late.
Also, I am deeply amazed of how talented you guys are. I mean seriously all this happened in less than 24 hours. I hope this mishap would create a benefit for all of us.
I understand this is fun for a lot of you, however, people are getting angry so if we could keep everything under the google groups that would be most appreciated.

Pradipta (Max) Archiputra
