This is a recording of the first Kernel Walkthrough given by Bart Trojanowski for the Ottawa Canada Linux Users Group. He starts with a presentation introducing some Linux development background, file layout and data types. The code walkthrough covers some important files and Linux list and bit modification APIs.
The talk was hosted by TheCodeFactory, a new meeting place for high-tech startups right in downtown Ottawa. This is the first time we used the space and I look forward to returning.
Mailman had me scratching my head for some time this weekend while I was trying to figure out how to change the URLs generated it its administration site. It turns out that Mailman copies configuration information into its list data at list creation time and then ignores changes to its main configuration file.
On May 31 I gave a tutorial on the new site code for the Ottawa Canada Linux Users Group.
The new site is based on Django. It implements the logic for displaying upcoming and past events, tracking speakers, locations and images. It can also display announcements as part of the front page.
The slides from my tutorial and the source code at various stages are attached below.
