| [[MichaelDeHaan|Michael DeHaan]] responded<ref>http://www.michaeldehaan.net/?p=879</ref> to a post<ref>http://iquaid.org/2009/02/28/failure-as-the-secret-of-success/</ref> by [[User:Kwade|Karsten Wade]] from a few weeks ago titled "Failure as the secret of success". Michael agreed and argued that it is usually impossible to build a piece of software that is 100% perfect for 100% of its users. "Failure is good. Chasing perfect is bad. Making any one aspect perfect or spending too much time on it tends to make other aspects of things bad. We need to get close enough and find some new challenge to work on, so we have more time to iterate and fail a few more times. We all need more time to fail."

| [[ThomasVanderStichele|Thomas Vander Stichele]] described<ref>http://thomas.apestaart.org/log/?p=783</ref> "an approach to doing meltdown analysis". Also known as a post-mortem analysis, this is a useful process for "when we've gotten into a bad situation involving multiple people that we want to learn from and avoid next time".

| [[RichardHughes|Richard Hughes]] explained<ref>http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/03/05/application-installing/</ref> some of the issues currently associated with installing Applications as opposed to Packages (first by explaining the difference between the terms Application and Package). Along with some other folks, they published a proposed specification<ref>http://cgit.freedesktop.org/packagekit/plain/docs/app-install-v1.draft</ref> that is distribution-agnostic and should allow relevant metadata (including localized content) as well as icons to be efficiently and easily integrated into the local/distribution-specific software installation utility. | | [[user:jsimon|Joerg Simon]] posted pictures<ref>http://kitall.blogspot.com/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011-travel-und-event.html</ref> of the event. |
