Announcing my support

Post by MightyTwin »

I hereby announe that the FreeEMS project has my full support. I really don't have much knowledge in coding or electrical engineering, so I figured that the only thing I could do is to cheer the project up a bit.

Looking very much forward to the day I can install a kit of FreeEMS in my car. ;)

Keep up the good work, and may the force be with you. :P

Thanks!! A valiant effort it is too. I could do with a bit of cheering up and motivation anyway, so the timing is good.

Regards,

Welcome along. I see you're just like me and don't put much in your profile. I'm curious what skills you have, such that perhaps I can egg you on relative to tasks that are with in your grasp. I might push for a connector card in KICAD ;)

well if it's any use.. i'm still floating around here :lol2:

Had a few minor crisis to sort out at chez Biscuit recently, but.. Back moving on. Fixed this ****box i call my pc, kissed off Ubuntu, installed Debian (lenny), getting my head around it, and most recently i.e. five mins ago, Kicad.

Orientation might take a few, but maybe i'll be able to do something useful, maybe..

The rest of you keep on keeping on, fantastic work..

The Second, Lenny is great, for a server, but for desktop use it will get out of date quickly. Stuff like pidgin, k3b, firefox all stays old as progress is made up stream. Very very few people use Lenny for a desktop system. Usually sid is the way to go for that, that is what I am typing from right now. Trouble is that sid *can* give you trouble because as in the movie, sid is unstable. Still, it is an excellent choice if you are up for a few challenges along the way in order to get a better overall system. Lot's of support for it, just tell them its ubuntu and they won't know the diff ;-)
