Problems with our internet link

Thu Sep 29 11:58:44 CEST 2005

We just lost our connection to our main web and stream relay servers in Ljubljana. The live stream was interrupted for a few minuts because of this.

The problem was at one of our ISP's gateways and it seems to be fixed right now. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Second OpenNewspaper

Thu Sep 29 01:45:05 CEST 2005

First 100 copies of the second issue of the conference's newspaper went into print a few minutes ago. This time we missed the deadline only by two hours. Compared to yesterday's nine hours this is quite an improvement, so we predict that on Friday we will actually finish on time and maybe get some sleep.

The new issue will be available in the morning at the usual places. You can also get it online right now from our media archive. Enjoy.

Sunny morning

Wed Sep 28 13:17:46 CEST 2005

We woke into a beautiful morning, actually it wasn't exactly a morning, it was half past noon. the other shift was meanwhile working in full swing, printing the newspaper and planning which people we will besidge untill they give us proper interviews. if you are one of them, though luck for you.

Though luck for us is, that our cyan toner is slowly running out, so tommorows OpenNewspaper will be slightly less blue - but don't worry, the weather will be completely blue, so the cosmic balance won't be disturbed.
