Another episode of the podcast put together by members of the Ubuntu UK LoCo team. We recorded the intro and a few segments outside at Tonys house, so there maybe strange noises in the background. We also have two great segments from LUGRadio Live UK 2008. One is an interview with Pete Stean about a new laptop he's bought and one with the guys from OpenStreetMap. Again there may be some background noise there as there was a conference of some kind going on in the background ;)
One thing I'm impressed with about this episode is that Pete emailed the show and said he'd like to do a segment about his new laptop running Ubuntu. This is exactly what we envisaged for the show from the start. People from the Ubuntu community contributing content that they feel passionate about. Thanks a million Pete! If you have something they'd like to contribute we would love to hear from you, contact details below.
Another thing that I'm impressed with is the way we've spread the load about during this episode. During LUGRadio Live all six of the main contributors (me, Tony, Dave, Ciemon, Laura and Schwuk) were crew for the event which meant we were often busy. Getting slots with people to chat with them was difficult, so we didn't get too many interviews from the event, but the ones we got are great, I'm sure you'll agree. More of those to come in episode 12.
I'd also like to thank Andy and Etienne from OpenStreetMap for spending time with us. Their stand at LUGRadio Live was very popular and as a result the guys were extremely busy. Kudos to them for taking time out to talk to us, we really appreciate it, and as we said in the show, we could have chatted to you guys all day, but we think a 24 hour podcast episode might be taking it too far :)
Although...
No, stop it, bad thoughts.
Finally I'd like to thank the guys from LUGRadio who put on a great event (as always) in Wolverhampton. It was great to meet up with such a fantastic bunch of people. Looking forward to next year already!
Anyway, take a listen and if you're interested in the Viglen MPC-L that we review, don't forget we have a special deal so you can get them nice and cheap!
