LTSP Upstream

// February 21st, 2012 // 1 Comment » // Free Software

I’m now an LTSP developer!

I came across LTSP for the first time in 2003. Little did I know that I’d still be using it 9 years later, would attend two LTSP  hackfesst in South West Harbor (Maine, US) and today…  become an official upstream LTSP developer.

It’s a small but really nice community to be part of and I’m really happy to officially be part of it. I’m just about to commit some default LDM theme improvements and a bug fix, I hope to do many more of those in the future :)

Turning 30

// February 8th, 2012 // 4 Comments » // Free Software, Jonathan

I’ve always heard people complaining about turning 30 before and wondered what it would be like for me.

I’m thrilled to turn 30. I feel like I’m 20. I think I’m some kind of late bloomer, my 20′s were probably more like what teens are like for most and while I still feel young and restless, I’m slowly but surely growing more confident, more relaxed, more content, more independent and I’m becoming more and more ME.

I’ve overcome quite a lot of personal problems in the past, and I’m glad to be at a point where all my current problems are solvable without much help from anyone else (even though that means I had to mark some things as ‘wontfix’). Having said that, I’m really happy having the people in my life that I do. The people that are always there for me, whether I’m in SA or in Canada (my support network!) THANK YOU! I’m grateful for every moment we get to spend together!

I have a good feeling for this year and the future, there’s some great things on the way!
