Just in case you like to know, I'm currently full-time father of 2 kids, half-time Perl hacker, sort-of DJ, bicyclist, no longer dreadlocked and 33 years old

I'm also head of Vienna.pm [pm.org], maintainer of the CPANTS [perl.org] project, member of the TPF Grants Commitee [perlfoundation.org] and the YAPC Europe Foundation [yapceurope.org].

I've got stuff on CPAN [cpan.org], held various talks [domm.plix.at] and organised YAPC::Europe 2007 in Vienna [yapceurope.org].

Oslo or not?

[ #35599 ]

The QA Hackathon sounds very interesting. The flight to Oslo isn't expensive (at the moment), $job and @family don't object. But: I hate flying. It's uncomfortable, and it's bad for the environment (and I already totaly blew my CO2 balance last year with my trip to Mongolia...)

I have to decide soonish, before the ticket prices rise... Hmm...

  • A train isn't as fast and will likely take a bit longer than a day, but it could be fun. It would be good to see you there.

    • Train takes something like 38 hours (one direction!), which is a bit too long for a few days in Oslo.

      I will go by train to Copenhagen for YAPC::Europe (which takes a night and half a day and thus is reasonable).

      But maybe I'll just go for one of those forest-planting thingies, thought I doubt their effectiveness. And it's basically Ablasshandel [wikipedia.org] :-)

  • I could engage in some CO2 footprint relativism - like at least your trip has benefit to a wider community - but as Curtis says, just get the train or something and BE THERE :)

  • I don't see your dilemma. ;-)
  • If I can fly there from Sydney, I'm sure you can fly there from Europe. :)
