Kite Club: Committer Edition

>> Wednesday, May 28, 2008

Here in Ottawa, everyone is looking forward to summer vacations after an extremely busy release cycle. My good friend Sonia has introduced us to sport kiting.


Flying a kite is a very relaxing way to spend lunch hour - thoughts of builds and bugs are swept away. Sonia can really make the kite dance.
