ringbark: I see pmcgovern as having been
certified by several more people than himself as master, but
I don't immediately see how he's certified as master. I
don't worry about it too much, because there are simply some
things about advogato that are 'magic'.
wiki is clearly one of these weird "free software
hacker" terms. It seems very bizzare to me, any time I see
it. Eventually, it may even bother me enough to figure out
where that reference comes from.
Alive without breath
As cold as death;
Never thirsty, ever drinking,
All in mail, ever clinking.
I finished the bonsai section of my Webtools
Howto today. It's in need of some more editing, both
for content, and general gramar/markup issues. I'm very
pleased to have gotten it done, and I think it's a lot
better than the old docs.
I also fired off my mail to the gnome-sysadmin team that I'm
ready to proced with the LXR and bonsai upgrades on
cvs.gnome.org. I think I've got it planned out pretty well,
although I'm going to see if I can't talk
jdub or pzb into being "on
hand" for assistance, in case I've forgotten something, or
get stuck.
Advogato
I certified pzb just a minute ago, as I didn't know he had
an account before this. I also changed the level at which
I've certified Telsa and jdub, as they are clearly
contributing enough to be journeyers. Telsa may not believe
that, but it IS true. drake just signed up
today, and he's writing the GDP XSL stylesheets, so
journeyer for now.
Biking
I didn't get out for a bike ride today, but I'll get there
tomorrow. I need to make some long pants so that I can go
biking, as it's simply too cold to go without them. My
parents got some great A.M.C. (Applachian Mountain Club)
poly-pro long sleeve shirts when they went backpacking for
their Anniversery. They're GREAT shirts, they do a nice job
wicking moisture away, keep you relatively warm, and let you
breathe. Much MUCH MUCH more comfortable than any other
brand that I've ever found. Amazing. I think I'll stop at
the store and price leg warmers while I'm out tomorrow.
I've got a rear fender hooked up nicely, but my bike doesn't
have the clearance for a front fender (darn), so I'll just
have to make due. I don't think it will matter that much,
although I'd like to get some fenders on my fixed gear bike
too.
I found this GREAT site tonight, from one of the bike
mailing lists. http://www.ultracycling.com/
This is just the sort of biking that I want to get into
doing, and it's got some good information on keeping
healthy. I'm only doing about 60 miles on my long rides
right now, but I think I can move that up fairly quickly,
with a little bit of work. WAY past my bedtime now, so I'll
hit the hay.
