Debian Theme for LaTeX-Beamer

Just stumbled over Debian beamer themes by Richard Darst. Very cool and exactly what I needed! Thanks!

Getting to DebConf11 via night train from Germany

By the way: For DebConf attendees from Germany (or passing through Germany) might be interesting, that you can currently book the night train from Munich to Zagreb with a special price (called Spar Night or something like that); quite cheap: It's cheaper for Meike and me in a double cabin of that train, than to fly for one of us. As far as I know it is a limited offer, to book fast while you can!

Apparently you can't book that train via the web interface, but you can buy it in their offices and via phone.

Oh, an it seems that the train on the 22nd of July there and on the 31st back might become a Debian train. Seems there are already five of us taking that one ;)

Update: Fixed a typo: DebConf is taking place in July, not in June.

The Canterbury Distribution

I'm sure you already heard the news about the new joined Canterbury Distribution, and are eager about details.

While our teams are struggling to integrate all the existing infrastructure, it's my pleasure to announce that the first pieces of the collaboration are already available for our users.

As a first measurement, a common Canterbury Package Manager, called cant will be made available in all distributions. It is already available for the distribution formerly known as Archlinux, and with the next mirror push will also be available for those used to run Debian.

You'll be pleased to know, that the command line syntax isn't much of a change, you can still run cant search, cant install or cant remove, but future version will also introduce all the features known from the other distributions.

Stay tuned for further updates of Canterbury Linux!

DebCamp for DebConf 11

If you are wondering, how we will manage to have the DebCamp preceding DebConf 11 in 2009, it's quite easy: Each attendee will find a time machine in his conference back.

By the way: To make that happen, the DebConf orga team is looking for help in fund raising. Please consider helping us, or we will have to cancel the time machines and fall back to the boring DebCamp directly preceding DebConf solution.
