I had a theatrical weekend in Munich:

Friday at the FestSpielHaus, a kind of community youth theater.
Saturday at the Kammerspiele for the Bunny Hill Staatsgrundung, the first of several events involving Hasenbergl, one of Munich's few non-toytown neighbourhoods. I don't think they've heard of the awful british comedian with a similar name.
Sunday at the Studio Isabella [...]

I think I'll run for election to the Board this time. I'd like to make a difference. Hopefully we'll have lots of candidates.
I think any energetic and constructive candidates would be welcomed. It's not a measure of technical achievment, and it's not much of a decision-making role, so go for it if you can [...]

I found some more precise links to Berlin election-night parties (both free of charge):

Cinestar Wahlparty [1] at Potsdammer Platz: Now it looks like they will only show CNN, but I think they'll have wireless internet there too. I need to check that out. They are showing the Manchurian Candidate remake earlier in the evening, which [...]

Yesterday I released a first tarball of glibmm 2.5, with a first version of the Glib::Option command-line parsing API, wrapping GOption. And last week I released gtkmm 2.5.0, with quite a lot of new API from GTK 2.5, such as IconView. Just so you know.
I've had so little time for gtkmm coding these days, [...]

What is going on with debian? Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but I still don't see any sign that it's going to be released soon. And Fedora? Still no 3rd-party software or public CVS? Ubuntu looks increasingly like the best hope. Watch them actually _do_ what they say. And help them do [...]

This (anonymous) blogger has found just what I was looking for – a multi-screen English-language Election Night event in Berlin, at the Sony Center. I wonder if it will be segregated like a British football match.

I notice that Florian Schie� will be speaking at the Berlinux conference about Munich's switch to Linux, on Saturday 22nd October. Florian seems to be the guy organising LiMux. I see that he's also an active debian maintainer. I'd really like to attend the talk, but I'll probably be in Munich over that weekend.
GNOME's own [...]

At the weekend I heard about a couple of interesting websites:
SprachDuo: Helps, for instance, an English-speaker learning German in Munich to find a German-speaker who wants to learn English, to practice conversation. They do other languages too. This would have been very useful when I arrived in Munich.
Kulturkueche: Reviews and interviews from a group [...]

Tomorrow I'll be in Munich, where I have no english-language TV channels, but I've managed to find somewhere to watch the second US Presidential debate when CNN repeats it at 10:00am.
Also, my dedicated associate learned from one of the Munich For Kerry people last night at Cafe Puck's, that the Amerika Haus will have an [...]

I watched the Kerry v. Bush debate on BBC World last night at 3am with Daniel Elstner at my place in Berlin. I was glad that Kerry made the key points about deception and incompetence, and when I looked at the repeats close-up I saw that Bush backed up the incompetence theme quite well with [...]
