Goals Part 2

2 Years ago I wrote about some of my goals.

In summary I wanted to learn a musical instrument, learn a foreign language, contribute to the Debian project,  create a nice home in wollongong and finally finish some of my projects.

Well I have made some progress.

My Home is now nice. Elana married me We have done a lot of work. Major renovations are starting soon.

I have taught myself to play the guitar. I am not really good but I can play around the campfire. Thats what I want

I studied Chinese at tafe for 12 months. I got sick of it. The class was annoying me and I don’t have time for the cultural assignments so I dropped out. I still plan to continue studying I just need to find a less formal setting.

I stopped using Debian. After so many years I switched to Ubuntu. I still think Debian is the best project out there with great goals. I just don’t have time for it anymore. I need more of the “it just works” experience with a shorter release cycle.

The goal to contribute to Debian was really a goal to contribute to Open Source software.  I am quite passionate about it. I have made some progress towards this goal with a few patches accepted. I am now looking towards contribute to KDE. My work should trickle downstream to Debian anyway

I still haven’t finished any of my projects though
