Hey,

traveling season has begun and so I wanted to give a first review as well as a look ahead on things to come.

My first destination, in a row of short trips, is Paris. After a long Bus ride (don’t ask) from Berlin to Paris I got here and was welcomed with sunshine and good coffee.

During my stay which will probably end tomorrow (wednesday at 7pm) I plan to visit Bearstech and talk to local SHR developers. If you are in the area and want to see a Ben NanoNote and talk about paroli get in touch with me :)

Update: As I didn’t blog earlier meeting me will be difficult, but as you’ll see further down I will be back in Paris soon :) I can also update on the Ben NanoNote situation. We managed to flash a device here and it was rather easy and smooth. I expected the flashing to be more unstable, but I was positively surprised. A big thanks to Julien who did the actual flashing part :)

What would such a message be without proof? So here we go!

Here for non-flash download.

The next stop on the tour will be Berlin at the Atoms&Bits Camp from Sept. 26th to 27th. I will attend as many sessions as possible and of course carry a Ben NanoNote at all times :)

Next up is Paris again. I will be attending the Open World Forum from October 1st to October 2nd.

For now the rest of October seems quiet. On the second weekend in November FSCONS ’09 takes place. I will give a talk on Copyleft hardware.

A trip to Basel concludes the current planning with the OpenZim developer meeting on November 20th – 22nd.

If you are in any of these areas and wanna organize a local meet-up outside of the mentioned events just let me know.

Any other events that you know of that might be worth attending?

Pictures will follow.
