Kital is giving the first talk on Fedora Security Spin. The room is not full yet, people are still coming in slowly. Kital just a very nice example of robbing bank and how one should go ahead to plan and execute that :)

sparcy — command line utility for Spac Systems Limited GPS loggers
Few days back I bought a new GPS data logger from Sparc Systems Limited , GDL 3204. It comes with a nice 3 page manual. The last page explains the data format of the logs.
The device works in a very nice and easy way, it is having 32 channels.
We already had a nice python script to parse the log and create gpx files. But for me , every time “cat”ing the device and then convert the log is a difficult task.
Sparcy , which can get the data from the device and convert them into gpxfor you. If you already have the raw data, you can convert them to gpx too. People from #osm helped me a lot to understand how latitude and longitude calculations are done.
RPMs are available here.

Kindergarden house with tablet
As nicu already said, this one by me with my new Wacom Bamboo Fun.
Above one done by pjp including help from ramki (Elephant’s ass and two birds). Now the meme continues.
Fedora just rocks , it worked as just another plug and play device. (I am in Fedora 11)
