Deberían actualizar la gaceta, ya la dejaron abandonada, he dado propuestas con el profesor omar, espero me avisen si lo tomaron en cuenta, esta gaceta necesita algo nuevo, llamativo, porque estos colores lo vuelven un poco tristón, ponganlo de color verde, o no se, algo llamativo, para que mas chavos veamos este blog, que ya casi todo uvm ha olvidado, yo ayudo en lo que necesiten
