Reached in the morning. Some problem came due the bus. I don’t like that journey. Now in Air Force academy in my brother’s house. Feeling home after a long time.
Kphotobymail is a flickr up loader written in python using pyqt. Was looking for some tool to send the photos through mail to flickr, opening a new mail every time is a irritating job. This is my first pyqt app. You can download it from here. Still no documentation for it. Will do that in next week. One thing, you can delete any row by double clicking on it.
No current at home :( So came back to office at 12 in night, will go back tomorrow with Nuri (he will finish up his duty around 7.30 in morning). Another reason was that my phone was out of charge.. Need to talk with Ria. So, office is the best choice. And learning how to use python.. :)
Please comment about the design of our college’s website. And rate it between 0 (good) and 10 (Very Bad) Mine is 10..
My current work is to setup a KOHA server for HCL CMS. Test setup is done properly, now the data migration. For the users it is going to be easy. I need to insert in borrowers table from our SAP database. Though no sample data is available for me, but it seems to be easy.
The records for the books are in opposite condition. Koha has the power to import MARC records. The current app is in Lotus Notes. I thought, I will at least get a CSV format data, from which MARC records will be created and at last will use Koha to import. Pymarc module is good to work with MARC in python. But our people didn’t create a database for the books good enough to create MARC records. They don’t have ISBN !!!!
Today, I heard HTTP is unreliable for SOAP. Why ?? Can any body explain this??
Saw this previously also. Used for voice chat. Today, early morning, I decided to check the PC-PHONE call feature and it rocks!! No delay, no noise, woo……………. Thanx to Yahoo!! for this .. Called my relatives in US & the cost is lesser than the local call from my mobile.
Came back from Durgapur. The event went good: I reached Durgapur on 3rd April. That was a holiday in BCREC college, but my dgplug colleagues were there to do the final work. We checked the banners, seminar room etc. We also burned a few copies of FC5 DVD in night.
The next day started properly. There were four speakers, Me , Indranil Dasgupta, Sayamindu Dasgupta & Soumyadip Modak. There were around 120 students.
First we played “Truth Happens”, it took lot of attention. The first speech was from Indranil named “All about Fdora”.
The slides were made by Sankarshan & IDG.
It lasts around 2 hours. He first talked about FOSS, then stared how Fedora project fits in. A few M$ lover asked why Linux?? and got perfect punch back to them & the first half ended that way. We distributed FC4 DVDs & tee as the reward of asking questions.
The second session started with my talk. I was talking about different apps in FC5 & I opened them one by one as the slides goes on. But suddenly current was gone, hopefully it came back with 10 minutes. During that time we had lots of question about the applications in Fedora.
Third talk was from Sayam, he showed a bengali KDE in FC5. His talk was mainly about how to translate. Then Soumyadip showed some live translation example, he mainly came to talk about translation for Ubuntu. The last talk was again from Sayam, “Programming in Linux”. That started with basic C programming to GTK programming.
The day ended with Soumya’s vote of thanx. In the next day we had a Install fest in the college lab. In the first half a complete loadshading was there, so we started from the second half. First I showed the installation process in a box. Then the students started installing in the boxes one after another. Forget to tell you, that was my first text based installation, the boxes have only 128MB ram.
At the end I had a very bad error.It came only for one box. The same CD/DVD works fine in other boxes. All pictures:
