| th1a | hi dadeng. | 17:12 |
| dadeng | hey, th1a | 17:13 |
| th1a | aelkner is finishing your changes. | 17:13 |
| th1a | I was hoping it would be done yesterday... | 17:13 |
| dadeng | good, i also have some good news from here | 17:13 |
| dadeng | Ondo state will start their hardware procurement b4 end of this month for roll out | 17:14 |
| th1a | Oh, excellent! | 17:14 |
| dadeng | and i'll be in Port Harcourt between 3 and 4th for presentation to national EMIS steering committee | 17:15 |
| dadeng | it has been painfully slow but we're making progress at last | 17:15 |
| th1a | Great news. | 17:15 |
| dadeng | infact that's i decided to hang out here now | 17:16 |
| th1a | We should have a test server up for you today or tomorrow. | 17:16 |
| dadeng | i guess we would just focus on key important features | 17:16 |
| dadeng | good | 17:16 |
| th1a | I'll bug aelkner later. ;-) | 17:17 |
| dadeng | i'll like to be highly involve in the testing if the server is up | 17:17 |
| dadeng | good | 17:17 |
| th1a | The good news is that there is very little Nigeria-specific code left as many of the improvements we made with you are now integrated into the main distribution. | 17:17 |
| th1a | So we won't have a lot of complicated maintenance problems down the road. | 17:18 |
| dadeng | because once Nigeria catch the fire, it glows | 17:18 |
| dadeng | rapidly and that's why i haven't given up | 17:18 |
| dadeng | good | 17:18 |
| dadeng | and well done to all of you! | 17:18 |
| th1a | I'm glad you've bounced back from your catastrophe. | 17:18 |
| th1a | Our developer Douglas had a rough time last week. 1300mm of rain in El Salvador! | 17:19 |
| dadeng | yeah, several hurdles here and there | 17:19 |
| th1a | He and his family are ok but his roof not so much. | 17:19 |
| dadeng | but we're on now | 17:21 |
| th1a | Glad to hear it. | 17:21 |
| dadeng | hey, our earth is becoming something else | 17:22 |
| dadeng | but how is he now? | 17:22 |
| dadeng | oh, mankind is loosing alot of control now, and we need urgent | 17:23 |
| dadeng | interventions | 17:23 |
| th1a | Almost back to work. | 17:23 |
| th1a | Well, we're finally getting some people in the streets in the US, so that's a good sign. | 17:24 |
| dadeng | what is his alias on irc? | 17:24 |
| th1a | replaceafill | 17:24 |
| dadeng | so i could wish him well? | 17:24 |
| th1a | (what that refers to, I don't know) | 17:24 |
| th1a | He's not here now though. | 17:24 |
| dadeng | ok | 17:24 |
| dadeng | yeah, i no him | 17:25 |
| dadeng | i'll get in touch later | 17:25 |
| dadeng | you know strange things happens in US | 17:25 |
| dadeng | like those wild forest fire we hardly see those things here | 17:26 |
| th1a | Yes... if I lived in the southwest I'd be worried that it is turning into a desert. | 17:26 |
| dadeng | uhh, it is quite strange to us | 17:27 |
| dadeng | anyhow we pray that all our people over there are always preserved | 17:27 |
| th1a | Have you heard much news about the "Occupy Wall Street" movement? | 17:29 |
| dadeng | yes, but i haven't paid much attention to what the objectives are? | 17:31 |
| th1a | Well... what the objectives are is kind of an open question. | 17:31 |
| th1a | I have a lot of respect for this reporter and his analysis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=o-1TdemR7_Q | 17:31 |
| th1a | If you've got the bandwidth for the video... | 17:32 |
| th1a | Actually, that's probably not a good explanation for someone outside the US. :D | 17:34 |
| th1a | So actually, not having a specific political agenda right now is kind of the point. | 17:37 |
| th1a | Getting people active and building a community and returning protest to the civic culture is what is happening. | 17:37 |
| th1a | We've been very compliant, thinking Obama would solve our problems, etc. | 17:37 |
| dadeng | my bandwidth is better at night | 17:39 |
| dadeng | very very good during off peak period | 17:39 |
| th1a | I think that video would make no sense to you anyhow, having watched it again. | 17:39 |
| dadeng | yeah, politicians are some wild beast | 17:39 |
| dadeng | yeah, i'll watch that over and over | 17:40 |
| dadeng | i think i keep tab of US affairs more than here | 17:41 |
| th1a | I think that's pretty common but I don't like to assume it. | 17:41 |
| dadeng | because atleast you have some structures | 17:41 |
| dadeng | that makes it easy to follow events | 17:41 |
| th1a | Seems pretty self-centered for me to assume people follow our news. | 17:41 |
| th1a | Anyway, these protests could really go somewhere because there is a lot of pent up frustration that has had no release other than hoping Obama would fix it or the far right. | 17:42 |
| dadeng | yeah, this is the first time we're seeing a non compromising stand | 17:43 |
| th1a | This is the first time anyone has made on in a while here. | 17:44 |
| dadeng | from GOP in US politics, it is no longer Americans interest first | 17:44 |
| th1a | The concentration of wealth in the past 30 years has been staggering (and mostly ignored). | 17:45 |
| dadeng | but party interest, i may be wrong but that's how it seems to me from outside | 17:45 |
| dadeng | yeah | 17:45 |
| th1a | The GOP is broken. | 17:45 |
| dadeng | yeah, they're broken bcos Americans are smarter | 17:47 |
| th1a | Well... it is more complicated than that. | 17:47 |
| th1a | You can't run a government when your agenda is "we hate the government." | 17:47 |
| th1a | (I guess that's not very complicated) | 17:48 |
| dadeng | i guess Obama was wrong to want to be non partisan | 17:48 |
| th1a | He doesn't seem to understand the GOP, and everyone on the left is completely fed up with it. | 17:48 |
| dadeng | may he should have just focused on his programs and leave off too controversial issues alone | 17:49 |
| dadeng | I love America, and pray that America remain the dominant force | 17:50 |
| dadeng | while just allowing the Europea allies some leverage | 17:50 |
| th1a | It is still better than some of the alternatives... | 17:50 |
| dadeng | Europe is one complicated and selfish empire | 17:51 |
| th1a | A China-dominated Africa sounds pretty scary to me. | 17:51 |
| dadeng | yeah, because touching America is like touching the whole world by design | 17:52 |
| dadeng | It is unthinkable, we know what people like that are capable of | 17:52 |
| dadeng | I think we care fight that off | 17:52 |
| dadeng | it only the standard of living here can improve | 17:53 |
| dadeng | you know designed some special desktop for use on the project | 17:53 |
| dadeng | we got almost all our spares from chine, but i tell u | 17:53 |
| th1a | My understanding is that Africa is experiencing sort of quiet steady growth now in standard of living. | 17:53 |
| th1a | (overall) | 17:54 |
| dadeng | i prefer dealing with American companies | 17:54 |
| dadeng | it is not for now but future implications | 17:54 |
| dadeng | yes, it is just that Africans especially are highly exposed to western ways | 17:55 |
| dadeng | but do not have the structures to meet the requirements | 17:55 |
| dadeng | this is noticeable in Nigeria | 17:56 |
| dadeng | and u know 1 out of every 6 african is Nigerians | 17:56 |
| th1a | Yes, I looked up the size when we started working together. | 17:57 |
| th1a | Whoa! Big market! ;-) | 17:57 |
| dadeng | yeah, very big indeed especially in West Africa | 17:58 |
| dadeng | West Africa population is 254million and Nigeria is 150million | 17:58 |
