"Hey there John,

Wanted to ask if exploring the sale of Debian is something you've ever considered"

Get your bids in now...

Somewhat comical that after all these years and with several other more "modern" options available to do the job, XSane is the only scanning program that works for me. Looks sure aren't everything.

"Did it occur to anyone then /
that among the other swords extended /
was one that no one was holding? /
That sword belonged to freedom. /
That was the only one behind which /
two resolute eyes were not flashing. /
How often knives and forks have been crossed /
in commemoration of that moment /
at banquets where everyone's sitting there in too-tight pants /
and suddenly someone says 'Whose freedom?' /
And a sword that no one's holding
cuts right through the conversation. "

I'm still reading Seven Moons of Maali Almeida, but struggling a bit with it, so started Get in Trouble by Kelly Link (stories) for when I need a break. And from the first story learned today the word "counterpane" (bedspread).

As promised:

I'm a staff-ish level software engineer, fairly deeply involved in the Python community (see @NorthBayPython which I organise, and @ThePSF where I'm a board Director). Things I like: understanding/taking apart/reassembling systems; open source; technology in service of humans. Otherwise not terribly picky :)

Things I'm good at: programming in #Python (other languages acceptable, of course), communicating complicated stuff in conference talks, probably a few things related to that. Ask?
