X.Org Developers Raid The Zoo

Written by Michael Larabel in X.Org on 4 September 2008 at 05:03 PM EDT. 4 Comments

Activities for the second day of the 2008 X Developers' Summit are now over. The day ended with the X developers in attendance receiving a private tour of the Edinburgh Zoo, the venue for this event.

The schedule for today's talks that mostly consisted of open-source graphics were also thrown off when the developers decided to visit the Gentoo Penguins. They were let loose for a rather odd parade.
