After three days of heavy fog, two days of bleary jet lag and one day of the lurgy, the sun came out today. So far I've met with quite a few interesting characters. Alex Schwartz of "Smuggle^H^H^H^H^H^Hnuggle Truck" fame, Ned Batchelder (an altogether nice chap) and today I had the good fortune to have lunch with Glyph Lefkowitz and Jp Calderone who assured me that Apple is not the Evil Empire we might think it is, and that PyPy is the future, as long as we can get build times down.
I'll be home in three days, and I'm super-keen to get back into some coding, and maybe have a crack at breathing life into some of my old projects. Oh, and start compiling PyPy trunk. :-)
