Was at the wedding of my cousin and afterwards at my parents over the weekend. Not much hacking related ensued, except I reviewed "MultiByteToWideChar", the windows function to convert from codeset to UNICODE 16 bit wide characters. Turns out the buffer size it gets is in characters not bytes, which a dozen of places had wrong. (Actually I wanted to use __builtin_object_size() to find some programming errors, but ended up using grep / vi for the above case.)

SUSE Linux 10.0 is finishing up nicely. Well, finishing for most people except the people doing 2 years of security updates. Having gripes regarding binary only software, new only slightly reviewed technologies and similar things.

LWN article was posted on security comparison (public soon). Had to mail in some corrections.
