Debathena Training

Jonathan Reed

Jan/23 Wed 07:00PM-09:30PM 4-237

Enrollment: Unlimited: No advance sign-up
Prereq: athena/linux poweruser and have some programming experience

Interested in learning more about Debathena, or possibly becoming a Debathena developer? Attend this workshop to learn how to build Debian packages, work with the Debathena source repository, and get a behind-the-scenes look at how the Athena environment actually works. Attendees should have some familiarity with Linux and be comfortable with the command line. Knowledge of shell scripting is a plus, but not a requirement. No previous software development experience required. Please bring a laptop with an installation of Debathena, Ubuntu, or Debian. (Virtual machines are fine).

An athena hackathon will be held at SIPB the following Saturday.
