La Salle Debain
Open Source @ Consolidated Braincells Inc.
This is a weblog I'm keeping about my work on Debian and any other useful Debian related info I come across. It is not meant to compete with other news sources like Debian Weekly News or Debian Planet. Mostly it is just a way for me to classify and remember all the random bits of information that I have floating around me. I thought maybe by using a blog it could be of some use to others too. Btw. "I" refers to Jaldhar H. Vyas, Debian developer for over 8 years. If you want to know more about me, my home page is here.
The name? Debain is a very common misspelling of Debian and la salle de bains means bathroom in French.
If you have a comment to make on something you read here, feel free to write to me at jaldhar@debian.org.

The Debian Project has decided not to carry an umbrella today despite the forecast of thunderstorms in the New York area.
Not carrying an umbrella will allow Debian the freedom of movement caused by having one less item to carry. Debian will also not have to worry about leaving it on the train or if its appearence of professionalism is damaged by green plastic with smiley faces on it.
Debian has had much success in the past in avoiding getting wet via some form of cap, sombrero or other hat. This alternative is being considered by Debian's elite headgear committee who hope to have a decision by December 2009.
The no umbrella policy was proposed and agreed during the Debian Project's yearly conference, DebConf, which is currently taking place in Caceres, Spain. The idea was well received among the attending project members.
