Faltan pocas horas para mi cumpleaños y algunas cachorritas han venido aquí, a la Escuela de Entrenamiento Canino de la Gloriosa Policía Nacional del Perú, para saludarme y tomarse fotos conmigo.
Así como leen, está próximo el cumple de Lay. Por esto uno de los mejores regalos que puede recibir es el poder verse rodeado de una hotchix ...

DíaDebian or DebianDay (in English) is the DebianPeru's, now officially becoming, annual event. This was our 2nd year and also served to celebrate our group's anniversary and of course Debian's 13!.
So after a couple of months working on the details we made it, and for what I've heard it was sucessful on words of the people we wanted to target. A good sympthom of success was also that I didn't ended that tired and burn out ;) Personally, I'm really happy and glad of how it went and the way we managed the event this time. From a neutral perspective I have to say that we don't use to see such organization and respect to time on "linux" conferences here. Of course there's always room for improvement, I wonder what next year's will be like.
This time we wanted to be a bit more organized, commit to time strictness and target more to non-technical people. We also didn't want to bore people with long talks and a non-stop program. So we decided to have 3 talks of 45mins and a lightining talks session, which also had participation of people from another city (which is quite new in free software events held here in Lima), and as one of the blogger's community leaders says (spanish) he had fun and a good time.
Together with the trivia games we put in between talks, which also served as trigger to give out gifts such as DVDs, swirl stickers, sarge CD sets and t-shirts, that were kindly sponsored by people from our group and some local free software businesses; were the two things most people liked, especially those who came by first time to this kind of "linux" conference and saw some geeks behaving well and had fun with them.
I've published some pictures. I managed to not adjust my camera settings properly so some pictures are not in good quality, but we did videotaped the conference and the videos will be published after they are processed. I want to thank again to all the people involved on making this happen.
