It's a relief to be healthy again. Being sick also highlighted that I need to quickly finish and reduce additional work, which are now overdue. My personal goals are to continue supporting FOSS accessibility work and continue laying the foundations for Inigo. So I'll have to cut down a lot of additional consultancy work.
Inigo
Kagesenshi's been holding down the fort for past few weeks and he has been doing good work on a UN site we've been contracted to work on. Inigo is a lot of fun as he can attest to, as we pervasively do things the FOSS way. New memory is in gambit, so slowness for past month should be gone. From July onwards, I hope that Inigo is ready to grow quickly if needed. If you're a student keen on FOSS and Python, do contact us for internship/practical opportunities. Part of the vision I have for Inigo is that we follow in the paths of many successful technical startups elsehwere. Which is that early employees have a share in the ownership and shares of the company in addition to working on stuff that's not mainstream. This is part of the excitement that you feel when you read about how companies like Apple, HP, Google, RedHat etc. started. I strongly believe, that this can be done in Malaysia also through Inigo. I think me and Kagesenshi should start posting pictures of our current environment, and then compare every few months, as our workspaces improve.
Accessibility
The main community work I'll focus on other than development would be accessibility. We plan on running volunteer LPI classes for the visually disabled and I'll try to continue support in different ways on accessibility like presenting at the Web Accessibility Conference http://accessibility.ncbm.org.my/ on how to use FOSS CMS (Plone) to make your sites more accessible and standards compliant.
