If I were to DJ, would you come dance and help me have fun with the accessible free-software DJ tool I spent this year writing?

So, I know that at past Debconfs people have sometimes gotten together for some impromptu dancing to music. I got interested in mixing music as part of putting together my wedding. Because I'm blind, most of the existing DJ software wasn't something I could approach. (Yes, digital vinyl systems

Is it possible to buy meals on-site

This tends to change venu-to-venue based on how catering is handled. If we discover that schedules have changed and we need to take a meal in the venue that we did not plan to take there, is it possible to buy that on site, or is it important that we make sure to pay for any meal we might possi

Trancing Out with DJ DPL: Music Suggestions

So it looks like I'm hosting a dance party Tuesday evening. I'm excited and nervous. I'm hoping to show a bit of what music means to me and to put it into the context of Debian. Most of my catalog is Trance with Progressive, Progressive House and a bit of Techno thrown in for fun. Looking for s

Your DPL is (mostly) friendly; feel free to chat

I realize that being blind makes it a bit hard to figure out when I can be approached without interrupting. You can't try to make ey contact. If I'm in a hack lab with no headphones or headphones only in one ear, then by all means assume that I'm open to being interrupted. (Use common sense i

Lost Bose Headphones; please let me know if found

I lost someBose QuietComfort 20 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones,; they are in a little pouch with a zipper; two little earbuds and a small box. I last used them in the noisy hack lab in the venue, but they may have fallen out of my bag.

Re: Trancing Out with DJ DPL

I want to thank everyone who joined in Tuesday night. I haven't had that much fun in a long time! There will be DJs at the conference dinner and the local team has asked if I could play too. After that much fun, I'm going to try and work with them and see if we can make that happen. --Sam
