self-serving?

Thursday, Apr 3. 2008  –  Category: OpenSolaris, Songbird

is it self-serving of me to want to show/talk about/demo Songbird on OpenSolaris at the devsummit coming up in May?

i thought about it long and hard, and decided yeah - it was perhaps a bit self-serving for me to push that as an agenda item. people might view it as abuse of the fact that i’m both an OGB member and work at Songbird.

to that end, i’ve put it up on the agenda anyway and volunteered ken mays, alfred peng, and triskelios to demo it ;-). i put myself at the end of the list since i’d rather those guys did it (especially alfred since he tackled much of the hard build system work, and albert for getting an initial port/patch up). i might say a few words about the integration/code review process of getting it back upstream into Songbird, but nothing too much.

but enough about that. i’ll bring stickers! wonderful farting gaseous stickers!

    Its not self-serving at all.. Songbird is an awesome app and it will be a great app on Solaris soon. I’m glad that at least one of the OGB members is out there in the real world doing exciting things.

    Viva Songbird!!!

    I’d say that it’s a big help that you’re an OGB and work at Songbird. Really exciting to see more cooperation between OpenSolaris and Songbird.
