Heya, did you miss me? I dont think so, or?

I needed a break. A break from the internet and from my hobbies around it. And the hobbies which started to turn into a unpaid job.

I took some time to think about where I want to go with all this and how it fits with where I want to go myself. This is the third or fourth time this happens in my five years of a bit deeper KDE involvement. I start to do so many things, that my reality check fails. Ok, my reality check is more than flaky anyway and I should get a replacement these days, but it kicks back in once a year when my computer and the work around it is involved and gives me a very hard and painfull kick in the butt.

Normally this ends in a painfull argument with somebody and hurt feelings. I hope I pulled out before that this year.

Well, long story short. I am back and slowly coming back to my computers after some weeks of sparse usage of them.

This weekend is cleanup time. All computers get reinstalled and old stuff burned away on CDs and DVDs to make room for new ideas. I say weekend and “is” because I am still in the process of it and declared this Monday a “weekend enlargement day”. My mails asking all the advertisers in my mailbox for something like this went unanswered, despite their other enlargement stuff, so I had to steal a weekday for it.

I am converting my parents to KDE in the process, let’s see how that adventure ends.

I try to get back in touch with the KDE world with over 12000 unread mails and estimated 3000 in maillists I should have read. Will take some time. I guess I missed quite some exciting stuff in the meantime.

See you on IRC somewhen the next days and hopfully in SVN much more over the next year until my “run away from computers” side is coming back.
