   5 <p>Many years ago, while studying Computer Science at the
   6 <ahref="http://www.uit.no/">University of Tromsø</a>, I started
   7 collecting computer related songs for use at parties.  The original
   8 version was written in LaTeX, but a few years ago I got help from
   9 Håkon, one of the inventors of W3C CSS, to convert it to HTML while
  10 keeping the ability to create a nice book in PDF format.  I have not
  11 had time to maintain the book for a while now, and guess I should put
  12 it up on some public version control repository where others can help
  13 me extend and update the book.  If anyone is volunteering to help me
  14 with this, send me an email.  Also let me know if there are songs
  15 missing in my book.</p>

  17 <p>I have not mentioned the book on my blog so far, and it occured to
  18 me today that I really should let all my readers share the joys of
  19 singing out load about programming, computers and computer networks.
  20 Especially now that <ahref="http://debconf12.debconf.org/">Debconf
  21 12</a> is about to start (and I am not going).  Want to sing?  Check
