About how school can be enjoyed again
Finally I have some time to write another post to you, my dear readers!
After starting up the HULK for about a fortnight, we started to bring up ideas for projects (so if anyone has an idea…). Actually, while I’m writing this I realize that I haven’t told you anything yet about the HULK (hmm.. weird).
Well, HULK stands for Hogeschool Utrecht Linux Kennisgroep, and consists of a few classmates and yours truly, who try to give Linux a shot in our university, the Hogeschool of Utrecht. The website is in Dutch, so if you want to follow up on it, you have to be able to read it.
We thought about some really cool projects like building our own Ubuntu distribution, HUbuntu , setting up Linux on mobile devices, teaching Unix, and also some smaller projects like building a logbook to keep track of what we’re doing and to provide student services (SSH access, web servers, database servers, etc.). Apart from that, I’ve started learning c(++), and for practice I’m building an IRC client, called skaar.
Next week, together with Mattijs, I’m starting on the logbook which will be built in PHP, so that we can start logging quickly.
Keeping you posted!

We don’t have to try to get Linux working, it works like a charm already!
Can’t keep your pace with the C++

That’s true, but I actually meant that we try to promote the use of Linux at school, not to try out Linux if it’s worthy of use
I think you will keep up with the C++ if we think of some cool C++ projects to do during our HULK time

[...] there is some news (and that’s why I am writing this post. Surprise, huh?). The logbook I wrote about is finally ready for it’s first use, and will get some really cool features in the near [...]
