Preparing the schedule for the FOSDEM devroom
It's nice if people remind you that the documented deadline for producing a devroom schedule (that you still have to write, and have all speakers agree to) is "today". At around 20:30 today, while reading my email "one last time" before heading home, I found such a reminder in my mailbox. I had completely forgotten about it.
So, I hurried to write the schedule, and sent it off to all those involved. Hopefully, everyone can agree with what I produced... if not, reality and the printed schedule won't really match up, which would be sucky. The result: I left for home around 22:10, just in time to catch the 22:22 train, and on that train found out that I made an error in the initial version of the schedule.
Grmbl. It would have been appreciated had I received that reminder a slight bit earlier. Then again, I should not have forgotten this.
Sorry about that.
Luckily, in practice the deadline is tomorrow noon, because that's when they'll bring everything to the printer. No, not "printer" as in "an output device that prints the results of data processing"; more as in "someone whose occupation is printing". But I'll need to hurry none the less.
