Looks like I'm a little late at catching up with my backlog. Oh well.
I attended LinuxTag earlier this June (thanks Simon for hosting me!) and had the chance to meet and catch up with a lot of folks I hadn't seen in a while. Sugar Labs also had a booth there and it was really good to see people (especially kids) playing with Sugar. Most popular activities included Maze, Physics and Speak. However, also Walter's new Abacus activity quickly gained interest.
I also learned that waking up three hours late (when having a talk scheduled in the morning) is probably not the best of all ideas -- probably unless you ask the cab driver. Got there in time, though and gave my talk on Leveraging Communities.Sugar Labs also announced Sugar on a Stick v.3 (Mirabelle) widely at LinuxTag. Shameless plug goes here. Was a good time.
Woo, event blogs! (Have I mentioned that your pictures are awesome?)[0]
It might be worth starting to build a talk portfolio, for later - put slides, notes, talk abstracts, videos, and pictures up on some combination of slideshare, blip.tv, and other websites of some sort.
I... should probably do this too. At some point. Copious amounts of free time and all that.
