BT's ADSL setup experience
Firstly, no username and password were necessary. The supplied ADSL wireless router was stock issue from their warehouse with a default PPP username and password - the authentication is done via the copper pair/termination point.
So that was internet up and running - plug in the phone and power.
The router includes wireless, but no generic security issues here - the stock issue router has wireless turned on, but with a randomly generated network name and WPA2 Personal encryption/authentication. No need to change these as the BT box included a card with the details that you could hand to a visitor to allow them to connect.
I literally spent 60 seconds setting the whole thing up and 5 minutes reading the FAQ because I was *sure* there had to be more to it!

Time: 6:30pm or whenever
We have a couple of short/lightning talks in planning - one is confirmed that I am excited to share with you. Continuing our great tradition of cross-pollonating with fpsyd, Alan Rogers is going to give us a lightning talk about Objective-J and Cappacino. Objective-J is a language inspired by Objective-C and implemented on top of JavaScript. Cappacino is a framework based on that. Alan met up with the guys behind Objective-J at WWDC this year.
As always we will be retiring for beers once the formal part of proceedings has finished.
Look forward to seeing you all there!
