As part of NavalPlan project, Igalia is going to teach NavalPlan development courses. These courses are interesting for companies that would like to study how NavalPlan works, how to develop it and how to integrate with it.
NavalPlan is an application to schedule and manage projects (not only for Naval :)) that allows any user to work with several projects at a time having a good view of company projects status. NavalPlan is free software. More info at [1] and [2]. Take a look…

I been talking about Navalplan at III Asolif companies summit where free software companies from Spain meet to create new business opportunities, to collaborate in projects or to do some networking. There, we have found some companies that saw this project as an interesting project and they are going to try it out. You could do the same :)!!!
NavalPlan is an application boosted by “Fundación para o Fomento da Calidade Industrial e o Desenvolvemento Tecnolóxico de Galicia” to improve the production management of the companies from galician naval auxiliary sector. However, it is very useful for other companies that plan their companies based on projects, being able to plan, follow their projects and control employee hours assigned to projects.
Yes!, we have name “Navalplan” and we have new website “http://www.navalplan.org/”.
This is going to be the site where we will publish main project resources. At this moment, we explain what is the project about, publish a link to online demo and information about where the source code can be downloaded.
We are still in development phase so during next weeks we will publish more information and resources (like deb packages, user documents, etc).
Today I was talking in “Free Software World Conference” in Caceres about a project Igalia is developing for Xunta de Galicia and naval companies. We don’t have name for it, I think we will have one at the end of December. However, we have some public resources:
This project is licensed as AGPL. You can test it and if you have any comments they will be welcome.
Tomorrow is the last day to register in Master on Free Software, organized by Igalia and URJC. I would like to encourage everyone in doubt to join this master because you will learn and work a lot :), if you need more information you could access to our website.
During last days, Chema and me have been talking to some radios explaining how this master is and I hope some of you could listen to us :).
Go for it!.
During the first week of July I enjoyed a week in Gran Canaria with my colleagues in Guadec 2009, where I attended very interesting conferences about the future of Gnome. Some weeks had gone by since then 🙂 but I would like to talk about it because it was my first Guadec.
I am founder of Igalia but because of professional or personal reasons I had never been to a Guadec. However, my personal assessment for my first time in the Guadec is very positive, because this kind of conferences are good places to learn what other people is working on, to meet them and to do some interesting networking. But it is also important because it is a very good place to enjoy a good time with all the community.
About lectures, I enjoyed the lectures with new proposals for Gnome 3.0 but I would like to stress the one made by Xan López and Fernando Herrera about the history of Gnome. It was very funny!.
About organization, I would like to thank all the volunteers who were part of the organization for the effort done helping us and trying to make us feeling the best we could. I know there were problems (connection, first days with restaurants) but it is very difficult to avoid them in an event like this.
It was a great time so I’m looking forward to enjoy this experience again.
