Today’s Linux Users meet has seriously been the best till date. Ofcourse the usual talks went on, followed with good food. But what followed that was the best part. The usual last bench junkies in BLUG sat down, to wait for the rain to stop. Thats when mmk makes a statement like ‘gtk sucks’. Our very own Linus , Hanish Menin from somewhere at the back screams back saying ‘What Crap’. So then starts the gtk vs qt / C vs C++ / bad design vs bad coding war. best part was all of us sitting back and watching mmk and hanish battle it out. We last had this kinda thingy more then a year ago. Couple of people left early and then slowly the topic shifted to Yahoo bashing. Again this was good fine. Me and mmk answering out some *issues* people had to raise.

Atul, too bad you missed that part 😉

and manusb, how was mysore ?

    Well, I don’t know.

    The city had a nice view, there’s (surprisingly) a lot of action in that town. Other people who have visited Mysore mostly gave me much better reviews – but somehow, it didn’t come across as an A-grade place to me – more like a small town.

    I saw all the different parts of town, though. The waterfall near KRS was also very nice.

    But, on the whole, the Java City treat stands.

    Exactly! I don’t know what you expected to find there, when you went, and infact, I was suprised by all the technological advancements in that area, and the existence of computers/roads/whatever. Thats what I loved about Mysore.

    Check out this, and this. 😛

    PS: Whats the Java City treat for?

    See this; that was another time I visited Mysore.
    My grandmum lives there, so I’ve done fifty + visits to that “small town”. Bangalore still rules.

    Btw, I would recommend Hotel Darshana International next time you go there – cheap, good quality accomodation.
