So, it has been two days now since the end of LinuxTag 2005. What is the conclusion? First of all: It was worth it! :)

I got to see a lot of Open Source people live for the first time and I have to say, that I'm not disappointed at all!! They are just as nice as you would think and the atmosphere is just astonishingly great!

TikiWiki was promoted pretty well, without having a booth. That's not mainly due to running around with a tw.o-shirt, but more because of having talked to people that didn't know about it. That includes people from: WINE, Zope, Mayflower, credativ, Gentoo, the FSF, Nokia and last but surely not least independent users.
By the way, at Nokia I met two more finns! I forgot to blog that before, but that was cool - gave me the opportunity to speak finish again! :)

Ok, time for this year's awards: ;)

1. LAMP-Area
2. O'Reilly
3. Linux Hotel (not enough chairs, but apart from that.. ;) )

1. Horde (Have you seen?!? Horde can do that and this and it's SO beautifully done!)
2. Microsoft (Some people knew it, but the others ran around and couldn't understand that Windows XP runs Unix in parallel with shared memory)
3. WINE (Well, perhaps this is just my impression, haven't heard much from other people, but I guess they are well known now! ;) )

1. Guantanamo is everywhere ;)
2. tw.o DevJersey
3. Team Gentoo

1. Uwe Bonnes of WINE (just plain cool)
2. Lars Kneschke of eGroupWare (always joking)
3. Aaron Wormus of PEAR (just plain nice)

Bye, bye, LinuxTag 2005
