In other news, I shall be in Christchurch for a couple of weeks starting from… about halfway through April… and staying until… about the end.
I would be more precise, but for the fact that my laptop is currently in the shop, and it has my calendar on it. My back-up hard drive also has my calendar on it, but the only computer I currently have at home runs WIndows 98, and I suspect the chances of getting it to read an HFS-formatted disk are negligible to negative.
A good thing to know is that if you ever drop a laptop, but it seems to be working fine, there may be a couple of months’ delay before it suddenly stops being able to recharge the battery. This may happen on a Friday shortly after the close of business, and shortly before you urgently need to edit a video on it.
In any case, the video got made by slightly more painful means, and the world (or at least the Eurographics Sketch Tools conference) may now see the glory of InkKit recognising sketches of diagrams in real time. After a number of very long days working on this and related matters I now have a few weeks’ freedom to mostly pursue other matters, like tests and assignments for the courses I’m actually taking.
But anyway, I’ll be in Christchurch in the second half of April. My sister is having a baby, and my cousin is getting married, and I hope to be doing some more development work, but if you’re going to be in Christchurch around the same time, the chances are good that we could, if you like, meet. Or, if you don’t like, I hope you will at least appreciate that I gave you fair warning.
