It certainly isn't aware of the map wrap-around. Which makes for a fairly comical bot: A: Food! 2 squares away from me! Apparently it's southward. Off I go! [Ant moves South] A: Food! 3 squares away from me! It's southward! I'm so hungry! [Ant moves South] A: Food! 4 squares away from me! Is something funny going on? Must... get.... fooooood. [Ant moves South] A: No food in sight. I'll just sit here and twiddle my feelers I guess.

Oh dear, I didn't realise stuff had changed so much; I wrote that starter bot ages ago and then lost track of the project. I'm overloaded with other stuff right now, but if you get stuck on how things work, let me know and I should be able to help! -Toby From eleybourn at gmail.com Thu Oct 13 22:36:34 2011 From: eleybourn at gmail.com (Evan Leybourn) Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2011 16:36:34 +1100 Subject: [adelaide.pm] OSDC Earlybird extension Message-ID: Hi, As you may know, the Open Source Developers Conference (http://OSDC.com.au) is being held in Canberra from November 16-18.

Oceania Women of Open Tech (OWOOT) is a new group for women in open technology in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. It has recently formed from the local chapters of LinuxChix, but with a wider scope focusing on open technology generally. OWOOT welcomes all women interested in open technology, including open source, open hardware, open data and free culture. OWOOT activities will include: - the Haecksen mini-conference at linux.conf.au, and meetups and events at other conferences - periodic local social events - email and IRC forums where you can meet other women from the area who work with, build or use open technology OWOOT forums are open to men to join if they wish, as long as they keep in mind that the purpose of the group is supporting women in open tech and allowing them to meet each other.
