- I follow the frog!
This weekend will be the third edition of one of my favourite conferences in Germany: FrOSCon.
FrOSCon is a two day conference on Free Software and Open Source, taking place for the third time on August, 23rd/24th 2008 at the Fachhochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg in Sankt Augustin near the cities of Bonn and Cologne.
- LinuxTag 2009 organization started last week!

- openSUSE @ FrOSCon - call for volunteers
In about four weeks a quite nice free and open source conference (FrOSCon) will open it’s doors for the third time and in my opinion openSUSE should not be missed there.
Hence I asked the organizers if they can provide the openSUSE project some space for an openSUSE booth and generously they agreed to this. Now I am looking for volunteers from the openSUSE community to support me driving the booth. You should have solid knowledge on openSUSE, be an outgoing personality and enjoy to share your know how with visitors.
- To all sysadmins: thank you!
Traditionally - mainly because I also have worked as sysadmin for years - I enjoy to celebrate SysAdminDay every last Friday in July.
- Childrens interview german politicians on observation

- Quite handy sample letters
Even though these sample letters are in terms of webpages already shop-soiled, I lost my bookmark for them. So I would like to share it with you and conserve it by the way.
- Firefox 3 and SSL certificates - Part II
As written yesterday, Firefox 3 displays all SSL certificate errors as error pages. In the openSUSE default config, you need at last four clicks to accept a certificate with an unknown signature.
- Firefox 3 and SSL certificates
In Firefox 3, SSL certificate errors are displayed in the browser as error pages.
