...with sharks!... :D
I appreciate the interest of brazilian academics on this situation. But I think that "brazilian PD community" still very immature as a independent group. As far as I know - We don't have real developers as in Austria, Canada and Barcelona. We have the naif curious and the academics. Most of curious are newbies and most of academics are... hidden behind papers :).
I think we have to concentrate more efforts in "realworld" users. To became more envolved in development and exchange MUCH MORE knowledge.
I REALLY respect all the guys that develep PD, but I don't want to suport any show business. I'd prefer to host you in __my home__ than any University (with all respect to intitutions that could support this) - for me the most intersting situation could be something very productive and envolving, much more like a "HACKLAB" than a "Simposium".
And c'mon - Pd on windows? make me laugh. And Sorry the sincerity - Macintoshes are tottaly out of social Brazilian reallity. Here a macintosh notebook is __a price of a car__.
Just think about the meaning of this fetish here.
Support free Software, please! Brazil is the linux child - take care of this.
