Lenz Grimmer's blog

I had an exciting weekend at the FOSDEM Conference in Brussels. Initially I planned on writing a few blog entries while at the event (while memory was still fresh), but the Internet access there was very flaky and it was almost impossible to get a working wireless connection. So here is my (slighly belated) writeup. Continue reading "FOSDEM writeup"

This is just remind you that the first Hamburg MySQL User Group meeting will take place on Monday, 6th of March, 19:00. For more details please see my initial announcement and join our mailing list!

Currently, we have about 30 people that will attend. I will give a short general presentation about MySQL (the company), later Kai will give a presentation on MySQL Cluster.

If you'd like to join us, please register via meetup.com or OpenBC. Looking forward to meeting you!

I returned home safely from Brussels on Sunday night. FOSDEM was great fun, I am going to write up my impressions in a separate entry. I wanted to do it on Monday already, but I had an appointment with the dentist in the afternoon who pulled my two upper wisdom teeth.

The operation itself was almost pain-free and went very quick. But once the effect of the local anaesthesia faded, the pain was almost unbearable. After a rough night, I decided to take it slow yesterday. I feel better today, but look like a hamster - my cheeks are quite swollen. Time to replace the ice pack.
