About La Salle Debain

This is a weblog I'm keeping about my work on Debian and any other useful Debian related info I come across. It is not meant to compete with other news sources like Debian Weekly News or Debian Planet. Mostly it is just a way for me to classify and remember all the random bits of information that I have floating around me. I thought maybe by using a blog it could be of some use to others too. Btw. "I" refers to Jaldhar H. Vyas, Debian developer for over 8 years. If you want to know more about me, my home page is here.

The name? Debain is a very common misspelling of Debian and la salle de bains means bathroom in French.

If you have a comment to make on something you read here, feel free to write to me at jaldhar@debian.org.

You can get an rss 0.91 feed of the blog here.

7DRL Challenge - day 1

I've decided to take part in the 2010 Seven Day Roguelike Challenge

My entry will be written in JavaScript as a KDE4 plasmoid (thus simultaneously allowing me to take part in this competition)

Unfortunately today had to be spent in RL family activities so I'm already behind. however I've done lots of research into Roguelike development and I have accomplished the first step—finding a name. Candidates are:

...and the winner is:

It will be a simple combat heavy coffeebreak game inspired by things such as Solo Dungeon Bash and Pocket Dungeon though as time permits I will add as many more roguelike features as I can.
