Looking back at year..

Posted in Debian, Linux, News, Personal by Kartik Mistry on December 31st, 2007

* It has been really good (and bad) year for us. I managed to achieve 60% of my wish list in 2007 and yes, Kavin is our great achievement of the year ;) I was almost 1/2 year away from home and looks like that 2008 will be almost same for first quarter :(

* We had great new year party at office. K and Kavin also enjoyed some moments! The best part was movie The school of Rock. Event management was very well done (TM of our HR :)).

* Not going to outside for any party. Listening: Us and Them (Pink Floyd) and trying to fix dupload issue(s) with my damn slow connection.

Some updates..

Posted in Debian, Personal by Kartik Mistry on July 16th, 2007

* Long time, no see! Well, I am busy with ‘real’ life :) Kavin is fine and growing like increasing number of Linux users ;)

* Firefox (ah, IceWeasel!) team is coming to Mumbai (See ILUG-BOM website/mailing list for more details), as a contributor to Gujarati Localization, I got this cool Tshirt.

* Installed Debian ‘Etch’ on my office machine! Earlier, I was responsible for installing Ubuntu here :)
It took around 20 minutes for fresh install (1st CD). I would love if we can fit OO.o in first CD! Everything went fine. Smooth migration from Thunderbird mail box to IceDove. And, I love this cool sw seahorse.
