**Francesc Campoy:** Oh, yes!
**Brian Ketelsen:** And I kind of didn't know what to say. I said, "You know, Barcelona would be a beautiful place to have a GopherCon. I've never thought of having one there, but I've been to Barcelona and it's beautiful. That's a great idea." And he continues to stare and "Look, I think it's a great idea." It was ver...
**Carlisia Thompson:** I'd be very glad to see that. Also, that reminds me, GopherCon Brasil is happening. It's going to be in November 11 and 12, with possibly a workshop on the 13th, but we'll see about that one. The date is set, so start booking the tickets. The hotel is already settled as well. The website should b...
**Brian Ketelsen:** Wow.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Yeah, it's happening.
**Erik St. Martin:** You move fast.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Uh-huh.
**Erik St. Martin:** Oh, and speaking of Renee, too... The logo that she turned around, that was awesome.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Yeah. To clarify, Renee did a sketch for our logo and it was so cute. It's a little gopher with a belly and sitting on the beach, drinking something.
**Francesc Campoy:** I really wanna see that logo now.
**Carlisia Thompson:** I'll paste it on the channel for you right now.
**Brian Ketelsen:** You can't upload it on a podcast. \[laughter\]
**Carlisia Thompson:** But we have a Gophers channel. So the CFP - people are asking - is going to be up next week. The registration should be up tomorrow, the website should be up tomorrow, the CFP should be up next week, and we're also going to have the prospectus to send to potential sponsors next week as well. So t...
**Erik St. Martin:** No, it's a good thing. Back to hackling... Somebody totally registered github.com/totesafe.
**Brian Ketelsen:** No way.
**Carlisia Thompson:** That must have been Scott.
**Erik St. Martin:** I think it was Florin who did it.
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[laughs\] That is so wrong.
**Erik St. Martin:** I'm interested to see what shows up there. Is that like the staging area for the unsafe package?
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[laughs\] We need totesafe.io now.
**Francesc Campoy:** I think he got it, too.
**Erik St. Martin:** He registered that, too. \[laughter\]
**Francesc Campoy:** That is the problem when you give bad ideas in public - people will do them.
**Brian Ketelsen:** That's true.
**Erik St. Martin:** I don't know how much time we have to talk about community stuff, but one project I did see was Buntdb. They took a lot of concepts from Boltdb, and added geospatial indexing to it, which I thought was really cool.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah, I looked at Buntdb this morning when you posted it into the show notes section and it looks pretty interesting. The more interesting part for me was that they built it specifically to be a storage backend for Raft, so it meets the Raft storage interface or Hashicorp's Raft implementation. So y...
**Erik St. Martin:** I hadn't even caught that part of it.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Well, you gotta read it, Erik. Gotta open it up.
**Erik St. Martin:** I read the cool part, geospatial indexing.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Well, that wasn't the cool part for me. My cool part was the Raft part.
**Erik St. Martin:** Well, now Raft can store its stuff geospatially. \[laughter\]
**Brian Ketelsen:** That kind of makes sense, since Raft is so distributed.
**Erik St. Martin:** Something tells me that geospatial indexes aren't exposed to that interface.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah, I'm guessing they're not. You're probably right there.
**Erik St. Martin:** I think we are we about out of time. Do we wanna move into \#FreeSoftwareFriday?
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yes, let's.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Can I mention one quick thing?
**Erik St. Martin:** You sure can.
**Carlisia Thompson:** Because it's very much in the spirit of GoperCon. I wanna mention that there is now a CleverGopher channel on Gopher Slack for you to post and see pictures of our gophies in clever places and poses.
**Erik St. Martin:** \[56:10\] There's been a lot of interesting photos that have come through there. And I also find it interesting that every episode there's a new channel that's announced, or discovered, or created on the show. \[laughter\] Every single episode.
**Brian Ketelsen:** It's true. I think the best one was Florin's picture of the gopher in the cockpit of an airplane. It looked like a 737 to me, I'm not sure. It might be an Airbus, but there's a gopher in the cockpit of an airplane.
**Carlisia Thompson:** I didn't think that was allowed, and I was thinking "How did he manage that? Did he arm-wrestle the pilots? Did he get arrested afterwards?"
**Erik St. Martin:** I'm hoping TSA wasn't involved. Although what was this swag... Was it year one that there was some piece of swag that was triggering something in TSA and everybody was getting their bags checked?
**Brian Ketelsen:** Oh, what was that?
**Erik St. Martin:** I can't remember what it was now, but there was some piece of swag that had some sort of powder or something on it, that was triggering...
**Brian Ketelsen:** ...a lot of trouble on the way home. I remember that now.
**Erik St. Martin:** Sorry...
**Brian Ketelsen:** Oops... No pocket knives, right? Oh, and Scott Mansfield said the same thing in the Slack - "No pocket knives as GopherCon swag." Good call.
**Erik St. Martin:** Well, you could put it in your checked luggage.
**Brian Ketelsen:** You could.
