Jacobo is weird. Just look at his diary! Yesterday he entered Debian's New Maintainer system, and I'm his Application Manager. He should be set for DAM processing tomorrow, as his Philosophy and Procedures answers were ok, and his package (some ncurses game) was very well done too.
After a week, I feel confortable on my old bike again. Now I know why I've been using it for so long :) But I miss the other bike. If you're the one who stole it, well, fuck off.
GNU nano's mailing list is fairly active these days. People are discussing about adding some new features, like splitting the buffer screen to edit two files at once, etc. We'll see. I'm worried we might bloat poor little nano too much.
Someday last week I found out WMBiff's author, Gennady Belyakov, died 1.5 years ago. I knew something had happened, he suddenly stopped answering mail. Doing random Google searches I found a post in an OpenBSD list which confirmed the news. *sigh*
Slashdot posted a very badly written story about SGI's layoffs affecting XFS for Linux staff. Blah, in the end, only 1 person was affected. You want to switch to XFS. Really!
I should be heading to bed right now. I have to get up at 11 tomorrow, there are some activities in València against the BAD (African Bank of Development or whatever the translation to English is) meeting that is having place here this week. Ha, the World Bank cancelled the Barcelona meeting, that was good news too.
Night!
