Other notable stuff from Barcamp Pune
It is great to see women interest in FOSS. Runa gave a talk on Women's groups in FOSS. Atul Chitnis also gave a talk on "Understanding FOSS business model". I couldn't attend both of them :(. Blame it on 4 parallel sessions. And they were on four different floors and the schedules were getting changed on the fly.
Sidharath Sharma a.k.a patang gave a demo of his Bombay carpool mashup. Code is available on sourceforge. He need volunteers to take the project to next level.
Rakesh Raju from Indecca shared his experiences about the scaling problems they are facing with their online Poker game. Hundreds of thousands of players accessing their games. He mentioned a language called Erlang developed by ericcson is very robust and is great for concurrent programming.
Mandar Patil form OnSkreen gave a demo of their product.
[...] The Pune edition of BarCamp happened last Saturday. And while it has not been covered extensively in the blogosphere, here are a bunch of posts, that capture some of the sessions rather well. [...]
