Ericsson's Santiago Rodriguez

The VP of engineering for SDN and policy control admitted Ericsson took ODL's first release, Hydrogen, and made its own changes, but then realized how hard it was to move those changes into the Helium release and decided to adopt an "upstream first" strategy going forward.

Re: Cookies & Beer From Airstream trailers to pup tent, and cookies to veggies, looks like the meetings were informative if not downright entertaining despite changing area weather typical there!

Re: Cookies & Beer Good point, Mitch. It was cooler in Bellevue, at least on Tuesday and Wednesday. I managed to dress wrong all three days - the first day, I was wearing long sleeves and it was hot. The next two days, I had thinner shirts and it was cold.

I admired the candid comment from the Ericsson guy about learning that hard way not to create your own version of open source code.

I was a bit of a failure at the beer and cookies event. I drank a glass of wine instead and photographed the cookies instead of eating them. I really wanted the popcorn that was being handed out as well but the line was too long

Cookies & Beer I suspect the lack of T-shirts and bare feet may have been because the weather was cooler? Interesting point on the "upstream first" strategy from Ericsson. Once you've made changes in a release you run the risk of forking it, and that's accepting a lot of responsibility. I would watch the "Adventures of Crispin Blackall," particularly if it was as Doctor Who spinoff. Binge eating is a big problem for me at conferences. I would have gained 10 pounds at this one. Though cookies and beer seems like an unappetizing combination. I would drink the beer right away and save the cookies for later.
