Subject: happy new year, and a happy birthday to us


Hello all.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy, healthy,
and prosperous 2004.

Also, happy first birthday to our community. Yes, it was a year ago
today that the notelinux list came online. Although we unfortunately
can't claim any big milestones in the software development sense, I do
believe that our group here is a mile stone in and of itself, since if
we all hadn't gathered here, I very much doubt that freesoft would even
be an idea today. 

I also think that our second major mile stone is the fact that we
managed to get the linux kernel running on the braillenote as a proof of
concept. Unfortunately, I personally am still unable to get the linux-vr
tools to work, in order to build a custom kernel, and we seem to have
run into a deadlock in our communication with PDI. Even so, it should
still be possible for us to proceed.

I hope that by the time our second birthday comes around, we will have
had made more progress in terms of software development, and that our
membership will increase, and turn into a more vibrant community.
Currently, there are 15 email addresses subscribed to the notelinux list
including myself, and we have 4 members also including myself in our
developers team, and subscribed to the notelinux-devel list.

Again, a happy new year to all.

Regards,
Greg
