I gave myself a few days off to spend my time with my gf and family at Tanjong Malim as well as Malacca. Compare to most MMU Student, this will be my semester break. I will then have to start working partime as a research ass (is assistant, not tha ass) in the university.

After spending endless night inside the lonely incubator..... i am able to rush and crack out the system. (ya..forget about the 1 month delay... hehee). Food that accompany me during this period is still the same old sucky CyberJaya food, the all time favorite Maggie Instant Mee and Wholemeal Cracker.... I really miss Cha Siu Fan and Wan Tan Mee!

The only things I wish now is people on the Internet will started to recognize Davatar and love to use it. I would like to see people from all around the world join in as members and give feedback.

a.. I also hope people that really like Davatar will sponsored to make this service continue and run smootly, as the nature of Davatar used alot of bandwidth and processing power.

Of course, for people that cannot afford to donate, they can always send me a post card (i prefer traditinal things, email has too many spam) as I really love to read their feedback.

Davatar.net project havent reach the footstop yet. Many things and interesting features still pending there and waiting me to code. Like others projects, I learnt alot of thigns.. I am happy as I can "finally finished" Davatar as planned. I am really sick of all unfinished projects that i get involved, those personal or miniMAX one.

To work on Davatar.net, I have gave up quite alot of things and what I have gain now is still relatively little. It measn there are still a long path to walk. I committed myself to work on it as I belive in what I am working on. The problem: how can i convience others to believe in it as well?

Back to the past

If I am given a chance to back to the past, the era i will choosed is definately 60s-70s.

To me, it seem like a very interesting era, where everybody dance, everybody sing, everybody have fun like nobody.

It is also the era where human being successfully landed on the moon, the era where computer is invented, the era where Star War on screen....

I also like to see how my mum meet my dad, see how they get together and fallen in love. I think it must be very romantic.

I missed most of my childhood food (especially the way people sale them) that extinct now. I would like to go back and eat them all again. I like to sit under the yellowish street light and enjoy the stylish night in the old street.

My dream is always about setup a game design studio in one of those old chinese shop houses, somewhere around Bunga Raya and Jonkeer Street, Malacca. Old outfit but with inner new technology and modern way of running business.. cool!

Richard Stallman in Malaysia

I never know there is a war in between GNU and Linux.. until I attends the FSF talk given by Richar Stalman in University Malaya.



About the event, thanks to Mr Wong and Whale that trying hard to publisize it in MMU

The event require us to register through the organizer website, but i manage to go enter the hall easily without any validation. Yeap, I never thought of attending at first, until the last minute.

Well, someone called "Shaolin Tiger" who attended the event have wrote a very nice blog for it. No points I repeating.

I agree with him in every point he wrote. I arrived there a little bit earlier than him and I suffer more than him when listen to the MAMPU lady speech....
MAMPU spoke about Malaysian Open Source Initiatives, she was a terrible speaker, stumbling, mumbling and repeating herself, plus what she was saying had already been published in the papers and online and was public knowledge.
It just shown how bad our government understand about Open Source. But luckily, they are still good enough for helping the event work. I also meet the organizer, AXIS, one of the leading Open Source movement company in Malaysia, which founded by my senior from MMU (I never meet him before).

Well, I like to see more of similar events to happends in Malaysia. Hopefully, one of them will be the launching of HoverEX
