I apologize that I didn't get any discussions going with this community previously. I'm a 60 year old single father who has been raising my daughter ( born May 1999 ) by myself for 5 1/2 years now. I have appointer her as my CSO -- Chief Scampering Officer. She loves Tux Paint we got as a part of Edubuntu and makes backgrounds that I put on her flash drive. This marvelous program is also present on at least one other of my boxes, under Fedora. My project, if approved, will let her do the whole thing herself. Out of the 160 or so sponsoring organizations, I applied through one other (RTEMS) and this one. After 26 years not in school, I went back ( to The University of Tennessee Chattanooga ) in Computer Science, where I hope to finish in Spring 2009. I have long favored Open Source and have a ( sadly neglected ) chess program in C ( ch0 ) on Sourceforge. I lurk on gcc's gcc and fortran mailing lists, but I also do a little with Python, Java, and Mono. I am subscribed to this list, and will welcome discussion either here or in private email. |
