djafifa(These post are delayed. I have a wierd relationship with machines. I am writing all the time but in my book first then on the machine. it feels better and it flows more. I date all my entries in my book.)
i will begin my journey here even though it is not where it began. They announced the interns today and i am one of them. An intern with Debian in the Gnome Outreach Programme for Women. It means alot and I am too excited to think. But i am thinking and thoughts are running through my mind. I think what excites me most is the community. I am joining a community of people who care about technology, making things. Debian is apart of the Linux community. I think my first lesson is community.
What is community?
How do you build it? Sustain it?
How is technology doing this?
Why is linux doing this?
At the same time i am thinking about the Debian project i am thinking about the research project on activist cultures i will be starting next year. Both are connected and this is why i say my first lesson is community.
