2008 report

2008 was an interesting yet as Fedora contributor despite a busy session for Graphic Design course. I almost felt exhausted like never before with a combination of exercises such as Capoeira.
As one of Echo icon theme developers, it was almost hard despite a good effort from Martin. Because of the use of axonometric projection, the theme did not make to Fedora 10 release. Echo perspective was started and will require more intensive reworks derived from its axonometric counterpart. I am taking a break in order to recover from mind stress and exhaustion.
On the other part, I took leadership from Display team from FedoraOnXO while tracking project from One Laptop Per Child.

That is how 2008 was from my perspective.

Sun's promise to open source Java vs GCJ

Currently, only binaries are licensed as the source code is not available for the public although SUN promise to open source Java . I wonder if that announcement will affect the whole GCJ on which Fedora Project is focusing. Pour les francophones: Selon cette note de presse via OS News, Sun Microsystems permet la redistribution des binaires Java pour les distribution de Linux sous la nouvelle license nomm&ecaute;e License des distros pour Java .
