What did you do that you are most proud of?
Finished hard drive tests on Mac Client Backups 2 external drive. Ran the commands iostat, smartctl, and badblocks. Badblocks took a few days to finsh running the check after the drive seems to be fine. Screenshoted the badblocks test and dumped the iostat and smartctl data to text files, ziped them and placed in my /home/mikev dir. Updated my weeklyevents on my website. Cleaned out webmaster queue. Placed Power Pc laptops and ran the Power/Ethernet out in the Apprentice Lab in the spots where Tyler and I grabed 10.6 Macbooks for the Classroom. Made a hello world C script in Xcode to test with networked users. I was able to make, save, and open projects if I tried to run my script it would ask for developer tools group permissions so that could cause issues with networked users.

Who (among Shodor staff and your peers) helped you the most? How did they help you?
Tyler helped me with setting up the classroom since the most of the room would catch the sun on the board from that side of the room we moved the desks, laptops, and routers to face the other side of the classroom. Joel helped me by showing me how to view the current verison of Python running by simply typing python --version

Who did you help? How did you help them?
Aaron had some problems with the GWT plugin installing on the browser. It was the same issue Gavin and I had worked on earlier. I used the command scp on the GWT plugin to shodoradmin to test on Firefox it installed properly it was having issues from web. Checked on the hard drive Trey was having me test. The drive had issues mounting on OSX still the tests from the nix box pointed to that the drive should be working properly. Emailed Trey about it and how it could be a issue with the format of the drive. I was giving the go ahead to grab the backup data from the drive and reformat it. I reformated the drive after which it was able to mount properly so we can keep using it for backups.
