Some of you might have noticed. Lately I don’t have the time this community deserves. I have a new job, and the company has offices in Delft (NL), Essen, Lübeck and Ulm (DE) which means a lot of traveling.
Moreover, after working in the field of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning for the past 20 years I got back to my (educational) roots and work in the field of developing electronics. One of the reasons I got this job is finding out not all talent was completely lost by doing some stuff for this community.
Nevertheless there is a lot of caching up to do, so studying stuff like this:
On the long run the community should benefit from this as the great part involves embedded systems with tiny arm processors with their specific challenges to cope with. i.e. write a reasonable looking touch-UI which fits in to 256kB of flash…
(the latter inspired me to think (on linux/nethserver) it is possible to have a qt5 graphical (login) UI with some basic functionality such as viewing IP’s, DHCP leases and logs without X11).
First of all: a HUGE congrats with your new job. I sincerely hope it will give you the satisfaction you need (and seek) in a job.
And for us, a great advantage to have a hardware guy around. I hope, as soon you get a bit settled in your job there will be time again for the community.
And don’t forget, even a small effort is very much appreciated here. Do what you can, we don’t ask for more…
As said before, in the long run the community will benefit. They ask me to “maintain” the moodle installation, current running on Ubuntu. I’ll gues i have to port this to nethserver in the future
Yes, your absence didn’t go unnoticed! Anyway, congrats and good luck with new job.
At the end of the day, it is a new place where you can spread the NethServer word, isn’t it?
Definitely! @robb will be more than happy to support you in doing this!
