Some notes about what I did the past two weeks.
At work, there were three projects I was involved in. First I prepared the Debian-Edu rollout which is now scheduled for end of January. I patched the installer (see also the followup) a bit and tested the configurations. The big change will be, that the users finally get central user accounts and a home directory on the server. So the’ll be able to log in at different computers and have the same configuration and data.
Second we set up a course for the non-computing students here. This will start in January as far as I know.
And third I’m busy preparing the courses for the computing profs here. They will get some courses in Linux, OpenOffice, Python, PHP, MySQL, etc. Stuff they will need to properly teach the curriculum in use here. Details about this will follow when I have them.
While not much I also had some time outside of my work. Almost two weeks ago now I moved into a new apartment. It’s the Casa Colibri in Miraflores. Quite nice, though I have to say that my current room stinks. I hope the room where I’m planned to move into once it’s free is better in that aspect.
Sunday the 11th I went to a football match between San Martín and La U with Oliver, a friend from work. Unfortunately we (“La U” that is) lost 1:0 because of a penalty. Was quite a boring match. Maybe because there were only very few matches to go before the end of the season and the positions in the league table were pretty much fixed already. The season should start again in Match and I hope I can go to another match then.
Last weekend some of us young people at church had a meal together. Including gift-exchange. I was so stupid not to take my camera (may actually have been a good think). But it was a great evening. Six of us ended up going to a friend’s home and talking the whole night. So without going to sleep we made us some breakfast the next morning and went to church directly. To the early 8:30 service instead of the usual 11 o’clock service.
Oh and I also saw King Kong on the day it came out last Thursday. Quite liked it but still am waiting for Narnia. With a bit of luck I can finally see it today. It was at least announced as “upcoming” last week. But when I now look at the cine.terra.com.pe Web site it still lists it under “Próximos estrenos”.
