Arrived in Mexico
It's taken a while, but now I am finally in Oaxtepec and online! The journey was not too bad, pretty long of course, but otherwise fine. The vacational centre in Oaxtepec is a great venue! Tasty food, nice rooms, comfortable hacklab, beautiful surroundings and a laaarge pool. It's really warm here and I am truly enjoying myself. The internet uplink caused some trouble during the first days, which is why I haven't posted earlier, but everything is fixed now and everybody is in good spirits. There are still the usual minor annoyances, but overall we're fine.
Tomorrow the official conference will kick off with the DebianDay. A special day with more general talks aimed at beginners and interested locals. The day after that the actual developer conference will start, featuring talks, workshops, round tables and lots of BoFs.
I am particularly looking forward to tomorrow since it's also the day when maxx arrives, bringing along his old laptop for me to use. I've been without one since I arrived here, since my own one is still broken, and it hasn't exactly been fun being without a laptop. (Not to say it truly sucked!!)

Finally!
After announcing it
for ages I've finally managed to move almost everything I have online to my
own (v)server. It's being hosted by Ganneff (Thanks! :)) and already hosts
my webpage and my blog which has also gotten a full
redesign. The horrible table mess has been replaced with css and clean
html, Sartre and Nirvana gave way to Johnny Cash. There might still be some
changes on the blog, since I am still fiddling with it, but the rough
layout stands.
Big thanks to youam and aba who hosted the sites
in the meantime. If you have any bookmarks or feeds pointing to the old
blog url at youam.de please change them to point to blog.alphascorpii.net instead,
since the old blog will probably be taken down soon.
