Well, another trip done and I'm home again!

Met up with Rene in Dallas and we went to the JFK museum which was cool and more interesting that I thought it would be. Quite amazing to see just how much the site looks like it does on all the pictures of the time. Expected it to have been altered, but they've kept it the same.

Openbeos's net team seem to be changing their direction for the worse. http://www.freelists.org/archives/openbeosnetteam/08-2002/fullthread41.html While I was team led I integrated a lot of the "lower" level code into the kernel to get the best performance from it and keep it as simple as possible. With the plan they're outlining and planning to use things will be worse and the performance issues that beos networking have always had are likely to continue. Every time I read this sort of thing it makes me glad I left the project when I did.

I'm trying not to be too negative (in the bitter and twisted way that so many people get when leaving project) but the progress being made is all superficial and "edge" stuff that really doesn't move the project on, in my opinion. Ah well. It could have been a good project, but it doesn't look like it'll ever get anywhere now.

My driver continues to progress with ISO transfers now being run. I'm still fighting with trying to figure out how to size/create/use the ISO buffers correctly under the beos model as the buffers I pass in are always returned as NULL's. Oh and I have kernel crash on exit that I think is due to my driver :) Still, a lot of progress in a short time.

Time for some well deserved sleep now!
