 Bluepoint celebrated its 8th anniversary today with an alumni reunion at the Kilosbayan House in Mandaluyong. We had fun, food, and goodies for old-timers (Red Hat 6) and new Bluepointers (Fedora Core 6) alike. Everybody enjoyed good food in the company of fellow geeks for 7 hours!

I enrolled in Bluepoint's Total Linux course in June of 2001. Aside from learning Linux through a well-designed course, I also made a lot of new friends - sharing our enthusiasm for Linux, as well as other aspects of life. But what stood out in my mind, were the people behind Bluepoint: Magie Antonio, Engels Antonio, and Eddie Salonga. Their passion and dedication to making world-class Linux training accessible to under-privileged Filipino students is inspiring and infectious. Most of the alumni I have met (including myself), have volunteered to either train, fund, or help organize Bluepoint's free training seminars to advocate the use of Open Source technology all over the Philippines.
