What you suffered was a "head crash", which is physical damage to the disk medium. Partial recovery may be possible, but basically the disk is now a paperweight. Sorry to bring sad tidings.

Rykel and I are going to collaborate via phone starting 10:00 on Tues 14 Oct, SG time. I am thinking about how we are extending invitations to the 18 Oct event at SMU. The crucial consideration seems to be that we have a limited seating of 50 pax, max. Questions: - Can you give me a link to our google docs spreadsheet? I can see the survey by following the link in Chew's forum post ( http://ubuntu.sg/forums?func=view&id=58&catid=27), but I do not know where to look for the resulting spread sheet for which this is the input. Well, I am assuming this is the input. If there is a password I need for access, we can communicate that other than in an email, for security reasons. I can call you via phone or Ekiga. - Can this form be modified, or another created, that is specific to the 18 Oct event? - Can we get an article on our site specific to the 18 Oct event? I looked but I did not see one. I am happy to write it myself, if that helps. I can glean most of the info I need from the forum posts in the thread cited above. - Do we yet have a script (script like a play, not script like a program) for the phone-call based invites? If not, I can work on that also. Cheers CDR -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

FOSS.my 2008 is Malaysia’s premier Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) event. Whilst this is our first go at it, we aim for this to be an annual event bringing together professionals and enthusiasts from Malaysia, Singapore, Asia and the rest of the world for a two day grassroots driven FOSS conference. FOSS.my is different from other events in that we focus only on FOSS and that this conference is purely non-commercial. There will be no marketing/sales talks by vendors (we are very strict on this!) so all that is presented is FOSS goodness! Instead, vendors will be encouraged to speak on the FOSS technical aspects of their projects/tools. This approach works better as it benefits all through knowledge sharing within the community. Do explore http://foss.my to find out more about the event, and how you can participate as a speaker, delegate, volunteer, exhibitor or sponsor!
