Good morning, Hrw. I believe I've been excessively optimistic since the start of this project.
I missed all deadlines until now. I don't have anything useful to show, neither any bug-infested code. All I can offer is that I learnt a lot until now, from you, Erik, Florian, Koen, Neal and all people involved in OE, Familiar and HH.org. I had never needed using IRC rooms until now, and I've been using it a lot, both to understand how open source development works in practice and how it is made into reality, and of course to understand how linux in ipaq really works, how software is bundled, how packages are built and managed. It took me a lot more time than I expected. I don't know where I took the idea it would be so easy, or so fast, nor that it would be simply a matter of transfering and adapting knowledge I have in desktop/windows development. I understand next week is mid-term evaluation time, and I have no hopes of being positively evaluated then. There is little time to show anything good to be considered "results" so what I want to ask is if I can keep working on SoC even though I failed the mid-term evaluation. I mean, is it possible to go until the end of SoC and receive the certificate (and let's not forget the tshirt), even though I failed in the middle but recovered in the end? I do want a chance to get it done and tell everybody I did it until the end, even though I slipped in the middle. Finally, I want to deeply apologize for sending such message now, but I believe it would be best to tell it now, than having you upset about my progress. (As if you aren't already). Best Regards Marcos. _______________________________________________ Oe mailing list [email protected] https://www.handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/oe
