Well, one thing’s clear: assuming that I still have my job after this upcoming round of budget cuts within Minnesota state government, those same cuts make it pretty damn unlikely that I’ll make it to this year’s Open Source Convention. Pity. That was one of the most valuable things that I did last year.

Heck, our own IT conference within MnSCU may not happen. I’m supposed to hear today, but that’s what I was told a couple weeks ago.

I’m going to start saving to go to OSCON next year on my own dime.
