More lately, I’ve been working to focusing my advising practice on helping people implement open source software (mostly server-side) in their organizations, providing advice and training. But here’s Ubuntu week 1, not edited or smoothed out. My first step was to make sure the laptop booted. It booted fine.

I had a brief conversation by email with Cory Doctorow , a science fiction author who is also a copyleft activist, who releases everything he writes with a CC license. He suggested, basically, find the publisher first, then talk about the license second. There’s been some interesting activity in the realm of women in open source.

At some point, when I’ve saved up enough pennies, I’m going to buy a Mac laptop again. On the Windows side the hardware manufacturers make proprietary drivers for Windows, and very few make drivers for Linux, or open source their drivers so that Linux developers can use them. And, guess what? I’m giving up.
