New laptop or how to teach tech to anyone? Part 1
Mar 20, 2013 · original
* So, we got new laptop last week. The entire plan was to introduce my wife into ‘tech world’ or atleast in ‘Debian’ and/or ‘OpenSouce’ world. I visited home for one of this and other personal reason(s) [Expect next post on this!]. My wife reported her first bug (installation-report, with help from me) which was closed by mighty bubulle! I handed over couple of freely available Python books and we started with codecademy ‘s Python track. So far, things are good, but being really non-tech person, I’m currently working as ‘support system’ for her. I’ve used KDE as desktop. Machine runs on latest kernel from experimental due to issues with hardware mentioned here . I was not able to explain IRC in much depth, so we’re using non-free methods like Google Talk for communicating and reporting. Wish us luck! I’ll report Part 2 when things will be enough to report the progress.
My fantastic four aka #DPLgame
Feb 15, 2013 · original
* Inspired by DPL Game post. Not in order, 1. Christian Perrier 2. Martin Zobel-Helas 3. Russ Allbery 4. Cyril Brulebois Pick anyone. All four are capable leaders! Although, I only met Christian personally from list, I’ve watched others doing great work in Debian since long time.
Mandatory yearly post
Jan 31, 2013 · original
* Somehow, I felt that there should be post for atleast to abuse ‘Planet Debian’ in the new year of 2013. So, what’s going on? 1. Finished Full Marathon aka Standard Charted Mumbai Marathon with pathetic timing of 5h55m35s (and felt good at the end). 2. Good thing: Visited family twice in last 2 months. 3. N number of Idlis were consumed. Where, N = 300. Overall, I’m big fan of South Indian food which is more suitable for my stomach. Thanks to running, my junkfood consumption is lesser than I can imagine but you can find me in those places during some weekends to fullfill calories lost in LSD run! 4. Last Sunday, I delivered lecture on ‘Debian Ecosystem’, mostly same presentation with additional updates and details, at SVIT, Doddaballapur (technically, some outskirt of BLR) as part of FSMK’s 5 days event . It was well received from the applause I got. Photos are still lying in memory car
[Life] Relocation and running
Oct 13, 2012 · original
* In case you’re not watching my twitter (and other social medias), I’ve moved to none other than – Bangalore. I’m working with credativ . So, hello all DDs there! * On running front, I’m back to track from today. Planning to run Bangalore Ultra 50K next month and then Mumbai Marathon ( SCMM ) in January 2013. BLR Ultra registration should be done in next 1-2 days. * It is challenging to stay along after four and half years of staying with family (and out of it 3 years of working from home!). I hope to move them here as soon as some things are fixed and start enjoying ‘real’ life.

fonts-* migration
Mar 6, 2012 · original
* We’ve now done with big transition of Indic fonts from ttf-* naming to fonts-*. Debian-IN-Workers team now maintains around 61 packages. We’ve also finished process of moving to Git from SVN along with this. Kudos to Vasudev, Muneeb and AbdulKarim for taking lead, help and pushing me hard for upload and testing. (31 packages upload on Sunday night = 62 times my GPG passphrase, not counting couple of wrong entries ;))
Updates
Feb 29, 2012 · original
* In case of you’ve noticed, this blog has new URL: https://0x1f1f.wordpress.com , reading from Planet Debian doesn’t harm your feed reader (if any readers left ;)). * On Debian front, I’m mostly helping Debian-IN-Workers team to finish ttf-fonts naming transition and moving rest of packages to Git. Vasudev and Muneeb has done most of these work, well done! Rest of my time with Debian goes to usual updates of packages and in reading debian-devel during weekends. It is still fun, yeah. * And, illumian is born. * On personal side, life is great as usual. It looks that couple of dentist visit is coming soon. I also started jogging/running regularly since couple of months. In case you’re interested, I’m on dailymile too.
Wikipedia takes Ahmedabad
Jan 4, 2012 · original
* This post is almost translation of my this post on Gujarati blog (with some corrections and additions etc). If you’re not interested in Wikipedia, move on. So, as I mentioned here and here , Wikipedians in Ahmedabad planned event: Wikipedia Takes Ahmedabad. We gathered at Gandhi Ashram. Met Noopur again and some volunteers were already there at 8 AM. I never been to Ashram since long time. This place has something, you know it, folks! People started coming around 8.30 and we quickly divided them based upon their interests on 4 routes we already decided. Most of people went to old city’s route 1 and our route 2 had odd 6 (and 2 coordinaters) people only. Good. Less is always good. Noopur and Anirudh gave introduction to wikipedia, creative commons license and some basic rules and todo. We then left for Swaminarayan Temple at Sahibaug. We asked for permission to take photographs and we g
