So, it’s 2014 and I still haven’t migrated away from WordPress to using something fancy written in Python. But who cares? Life is great and I’ve made good progress in lots of other areas :)
I’m getting fitter by the day, last year I joined a running club and I now play squash too, which is working so much better than just going to the gym. Also finally making progress with learning how to play guitar, another ancient goal of mine that had slow progress for a while. It helps that I now live on my own and can make noise whenever I want to. I’m also going for lessons every Wednesday and have some plans to convert my spare room in to a music room. I’ve also gotten into beer brewing. I attended Beerschool via Beerlab, my first batch of American Pale Ale is just about ready for bottling and I’ll probably do that next weekend.
What else? Well, this year I definitely want to be more focused in my free software contributions than in 2013. I want to get my Debian contributions flowing well again with the aim of becoming a Debian Maintainer. Also planning to go to Debconf in Portland, Oregon in August. Then there’s LTSP which is working towards LTSP 6, which will see a huge shift in proper support for local processing and less on thin client support. Not sure how far my involvement will stretch there but I’m certainly very interested and will do my best to make the LTSP hackfest later in the year. The next 2-3 months will need the most focus on Edubuntu. The 14.04 LTS release will be a big release and the single-sign-on directory infrastructure that will be released along with it will mark a big milestone for the project.
Well, to anyone still reading my blog, have a great 2014!
