Hi all |

I haven't been much active lately due to my finals (they're finished now, |
4 |
probably with good results but the final feedback hasn't been delivered |
5 |
yet). In the last few days I've tried getting the number of documentation |
6 |
bugs reduced but now I'm reaching another stronghold of free-time shortage. |

I'm going on vacation from the 8th of July until the 24th. During that |
9 |
period I will not be reachable by any means (not even cellphone [1]). This |
10 |
also means that I cannot continue (read: start) writing the Gentoo |
11 |
Foundation Charter. The e-mail you received a few weeks ago still is the |
12 |
latest update on this item. |
13 |
|
14 |
It hasn't grown yet because of all the literature research (reading the |
15 |
charters and by-laws of other OS/FS-related NFPs isn't as fun as I thought |
16 |
it was) I needed to do (it's the first time I would write such a document). |
17 |
|
18 |
When I return from my vacation I should have "plenty" of time to get back on |
19 |
my Gentoo-related duties and promises. |

[1] Well, that's a lie, I will check my cellphone a few minutes each day to |
25 |
see if there are any SMS messages in case something terrible happened |
26 |
and my folks want me to return. |

Bent Hindrup Andersen, Danish MEP, about the Software Patent Directive: |
30 |
The approach of the Commission and Council in this directive is shocking. |
31 |
They are making full use of all the possibilities of evading democracy that |
32 |
the current Community Law provides. <http://lwn.net/Articles/84009/> |
