Sadly, this year there will likely not be any live coverage of XDC2014 on Phoronix, unless there's a decrease in the number of Phoronix readers using AdBlock. I'm not even going to be at Oktoberfest this year for the annual Phoronix trip as a result. If you wish for live Phoronix coverage of XDC2014, please disable AdBlock when viewing Phoronix.com or become a Phoronix Premium subscriber for our usually great, live coverage of the XDC events. Otherwise all the coverage will come once the IRC, Wiki logs, and videos are made available.
