I am soon back from a Trip in the past

may you saw Roberts post, i just needed a short break from my normal live and let all electronic gadgets behind.

I joined a friend to make a trip to the past - to a place like more than 100 years ago - the Jaegerbauernalm - a Alm which is different from what you may know from tourist visits - you can only reach it via a 1,5 hour scramble path and you have no electricity and most of the things you eat is from the animals that live on this place or you can find in the nature - cheese, milk, herbs - but we brought some things with us like bread and marmalade, ... ;)

You sleep above the barnstable which keeps you warm - and you smell like a barnstable ;) - and the sanitary installations? A large blue bucket :S
After 3 Days my body is back from this trip - there are no words to describe how great that was. I will report back on duty tomorrow evening - i am not already back here ;)

Thank you Robert for helping out!

Update on EMEA F15 Shipping

puh, 3850 Media packed, stamped and shipped today to 10 Locations - the count changed a bit from the planning - but it was not easy to find the right Boxes - so here are the real numbers:



i know there are still 770 media to ship

Italia 220
Tunisia 110
Morocco 110
Nairobi-Kenia 330

with a total of 5000 Media this makes a leftover of 380 Media

maybe someone can help to update the inventory on

a Fedora Talk, a bank heist and the OSSTMM

this is pretty funny - as i gave my talk about the Fedora Security Lab and the OSSTMM at foss.in in Bangalore in 2009 - Kushal found it nice that i used the metapher of a bank heist to explain how the OSSTMM works.

Now in 2011 - Pete Herzog, the Mastermind behind the OSSTMM, made a must read article about

"Analyzing the Biggest Bank Robbery in History"

It is another great example that Open Source let us do things just more sticking to facts without commercial influence by a industrie that want protect their own interests! ;)
