It appears that LaunchPad.net is pretty slow.
So that people can have something to play with, I have transferred files to my own web site.

Minor rant...
There apparently was T-shirts for speakers at the MySQL Conference but a few of us speakers have not received them - it was not clear where to get them from in the conference hall and there was confusion when I asked other speakers when I asked them as they did not know. Well - it seems that there was a conference T-Shirt but it was from the conference hall (which is now all packed up and gone) ... the blue-ticket thing was the thing to use to get it.
*sighs*
Was there a conference T-Shirt last year for speakers?
Perhaps I am just unfortunately busy and I haven't acquired the necessary swag-grabbing techniques.

(My) Community Contributions to MySQL BOF
I arrived late for this talk yesterday. Don't know what was said before I arrived.
Was working on my presentation, putting on a few finishing touches, during the BoF session.
Asked about WorkLog visibility.
Asked about reviewer availability.
Take away quotations:
"Contributions will be reviewed in reverse order of size (complexity)."
"Contributions will be tracked in bugdb."
"WorkLog will be replaced, maybe."
I created Bug#44398.
A FederatedX related contribution - Bug#29523 was last updated 221 days ago.
My LOCK_open contribution for Storage Engine ::open and ::create, Bug#30051 was last updated 631 days ago.
*sighs*
Brian thinks I should blog this.
I'm tired.

Perl Stored Procedures for MySQL
Files used in conference presentation here: UC2009 presentation
I think todays presentation for Perl Stored Procedures for MySQL was quite successful. The audience was quite engaged and asked questions throughout (yes, I invited questions through the talk). I made sure to mention Eric Herman's Java plugin because even though he didn't get time to submit a talk, the work is noteworthy. Sometimes I worry that my accent may make it harder for people to understand what I was talking about so I tried to talk as clearly as I could. Note to self: I should have a bottle of water on the table for myself the next time I do a talk.
The audience seemed to enjoy the demonstration part of the talk. I think it drew the appropriate amount of chuckles. One attendee said that the demo alone made his day at the conference worthwhile. Compared to last year, I think it was the right decision to split the presentation into one targeting developers wanting to get into the internals and a presentation simply to target end users.
I just hope that the communication with the MySQL/Sun/Oracle community contribution team continues and we can get this work into the main tree where more people can make use of it.

External Stored Procedures for MySQL
Finished my presentation earlier this afternoon. I had a better audience than last year and there was interest in the download URL for the source tarballs so I hope to see people hacking on it soon.
The link to the presentation is here.
There has been lots of good communication with staff from MySQL^WSun Microsystems^W^WOracle so maybe we shall see this code to begin to be integrated soon. In other news, there was the MySQL 5.4 announcement. I'll pull the code and have a play...
