FOSS.in/2009 Day 2

Finally I reached foss.in/2009 day 2 by 5 PM. And met some of my friends and made new friends. Being a KDE guy I spent my time in the KDE Booth. Couldn’t grab more snaps. But you may find some snaps here.

Get together 2009

Perhaps after long time I am writing a blog post. Its about the get together of our batch mates. I don’t have much energy to write this post. But the pictures in the flicker would tell you a lot. How much fun it was Here is the link to my flicker. Thanks to my friend Balaji and Shamila who gave us the oppurtunity to have this re-union in their house.

Fixed an issue in Bball

Bball was getting stuck at the right or left bottom corner. So fixed that issue and annma reviewed it. Apart from that I added a feature to bounce the ball when its dropped from right or left top of the screen. A nice experience to learn physics. After my college life I didn’t got an opportunity to learn physics or use physics in software at least. Thanks to the Bball developer and KDE for giving me the opportunity to do it.

I had back ported this patch to KDE 4.3.
