10. 6 days after the
conference
Work on hamster is going on. I've mastered
Glade basics, and how to connect to SQLite,
and now i'm learning how to install/distribute
files
11. +4d
"i was bending my brains yesterday trying to
make it all look object-oriented but i hope to
have a first version really soon"
12. +11d - patient zero
I kinda fixed dependencies and some other
things so it should be possible to install it
now
16. From there
● Patryk pushed us to get in shape for
inclusion in GNOME
● That meant exposure and translations
● As a result hamster is now translated in 65+
languages and used by 50k+ people around
the globe
36. Right now
● 12 people on team (7 devs)
● some of our customers
○ mashable
○ thenextweb
○ ars technica
● 55 million hits a day (~600/s)
● 70 rackspace servers; moving to colo
38. "First off... we want to
thank you for Hamster - I
use it every day..."
39. Luckily turned out to be
not that different from
OSS
apart from being full-time
40. Not that different
● can be wherever internet is
● working in a small, focused and diverse
team
● lot of the communication is async
● flat[-ter] structure - parsely is me
● meeting in person roughly every 6 month
