[dgplug-users] [summertraining] Important email for the summer training students

[Tosin Animashaun]

Hi Mr. Kushal,

I have an important question to ask. I've waited eagerly for the start
date of this training and I'm still looking forward to it.

My issue is that my computer arrives about a week into the training,
and frankly, I've tried to make it earlier than that but I'm not
certain anymore.

Can I still cope if I start late?

Let me add that I currently use Ubuntu as my major OS at school, which
I have installed on my external HDD amd can boot it up on any system.
I am pretty comfortable with the OS: basic command stuff (move, copy,
mount, fsck, fdisk...); use gedit (no knowledge of VI/Emacs)

I'm also quite comfortable with Java (occasionally solve Project Euler
problems with it) and a bit of Python.
