I am a Debian Project Manager

Apparently, anyway.

It's the second time in less than two months that I appear in the list of speakers for a congress or party... without being informed at all. Sergio Talens pointed me this morning at the Campus Party's webpage (flash crap, sorry), where they announce the presence of Jordi Mallach, "Debian Project Manager", who will give courses and conferences, "warranting a very high level". Great. Please, can anyone mail me and tell me what am I supossed to talk about? Thanks. :)

Santa Pola

Today's triathlon was the first I was really happy about my result. Santa Pola is a 2:30h away from València, and we had to get up scarily early to be in time for the boxes check. We left at 6AM, which meant getting up at 4:45... insane.

Santa Pola's is a nice triathlon. Today was the second edition and for the first time I could repeal the blows in the water more or less ok, managed to get in the group before me in the cycling segment, and ran at around 4mins/km in the final segment, ending with a quite ok (for me) 1:06:00 mark in a sprint distance. The following triathlons are all olympic distance, let's see if I keep it up.

Nano and UTF-8

It's been a few weeks since I last posted, but I saw Martin-Éric laments about the lack of UTF-8 support in GNU nano. Yes, it's unfortunate that the current stable version is lacking this feature, but don't despair, the development branch (1.3.x) will soonish have it, as David is completing the internal work that was needed to make this possible. As soon as Sarge freezes, I'll consider switching unstable's nano to 1.3.x, as it's quite stable and carries some good fixes in a number of areas.

Martin, I was sorry to read about your wife's miscarriage. I hope both of you are well.
