Andy’s back from France
Mon 27 Mar 2006I picked up AndyFitz from the airport this morning. He’s just back from two weeks in France.
He was invited to demonstrate Inkscape & GIMP at the first Libre Graphics Meeting, which was held on 17-19 March 2006 in Lyon.
Following LGM, Andy spent a week in Paris catching up with business opportunities. He also visited some of the world’s greatest art galleries, La Louvre and the Musée d’Orsay, an invaluable experience for a graphic designer. (Hmm… what would an impressionist like Monet have done with SVG?)
His presentation at LGM followed on from his tutorial on Open Source Graphic Design at linux.conf.au in Dunedin, New Zealand in January 2006. That tutorial was very well received and was voted one of the top four “Best of Conference” sessions. His tutorial was then repeated on the final day of the conference.
