It's been a good day for hacking, over-eager kittens aside. I got the fast gtk-doc xsl working for everything in glib, gdk and gtk. It it complete and fast, but shabby. I sent it off to the gtk-doc list anyway for "peer review". Don't expect to be able to remove --disable-gtk-doc from your .jhbuildrc in the immediate future.

There is another release of gnome-games out there. The major user-visible change is that the shuffling algorithm in mahjongg is now guaranteed to produce a sane result. I was quite pleased to find that my pile-generation code made more sense now than three months ago when I wrote it. This fixes two pre-100000 series bugs.

To top the hacking off I also worked a bit on aisleriot. Seahaven, my favourite solitaire variant, now allows you to move entire sequences onto the foundation rather than having to double click every single last card. This was of course purely for myself since I don't think anyone else ever plays seahaven.

Oh yeah, we went and saw Bright Young Things yesterday. Quite an enjoyable movie: the story of young, 1930s, serial party-goers slowly self-destructing.
