Mataró
I've been in Mataró (about an hour from Barcelona) now since Sunday, and it's quite a nice place. It is a bit cooler than Perth due to it being the middle of Winter here, but the way most of the locals are rugged up you'd think it was a lot colder. It's great to catch up with everyone, and a number of pygtk developers will be turning up over the next few days for the BOF on the weekend.
Gnome Foundation Elections
Congratulations to the new board members. It is a little disappointing that only about 56% of members voted though. Once the membership committee has the anonymous voting stuff set up, it might be worth doing the preferential voting referrendum.
jhbuild
I've been working on some preliminary documentation for JHBuild, which is available here. It should be useful for new users and people looking at writing new module sets for it. It has a fairly complete command reference and config file reference, so it is probably useful for current users too. It would be good to add some information about setting up a tinderbox like the one Luis set up for Gnome.
