Plugged TMDA in the exim server that handles mail for my domains. Now I need to list where I registered with my previous email and put some tagged address instead, in order to do some SPAM source tracking :-)

Ahh, the pleasure of overengineering solutions to non existent problems... I really like that when I get bored :-) Made a distributed Bluetooth scanner with BlueZ, Python, XML-RPC, lots of unnecessary threads,... just to be able to check when people are about to enter or leave the office.
trs80 Thanks for the info about iTunes DRM. Regarding deekayen's remark about burning the AAC on a CD, I think this is where Apple has it right: block what would be a sharing highway (ie, download from iTMS and make your iTunes directory directly shareable from some p2p tool), but do not be completely in the way people would like to use their legitimate files.
I installed WordPress yesterday. I'm now in the process of customizing it for a friend of mine who will travel two years, from Lake Baikal to Bangkok. She's interested in the relationship between water and people's culture and way of living. Her trip will lead her to several places where this relationship is especially important. She would like to have some way of sharing her experiences as they happen, and I proposed to use a blog for that. Let's hope I won't have too much support requests, or the travel expenses will be high :-)
Pybliographer: things were a bit slowed down by a lack of free time, or rather a decision to spend it differently. However, I still think of releasing the development code soon. I find it already useful in its current shape, maybe I won't be the only one :-)
Spent a few hours trying to configure GSSAPI for my OpenLDAP server, only to discover that GSSAPI does not work through NAT... Grmbl
Pybliographer: Released a new stable version. Now, I've moved the arch repositories on my own server, with a repository browser. This was also the opportunity to apply the pgp-signature feature of the tla-1.2pre development series.
check before you code... I wanted to start a small project to implement a shell for ldap browsing, and imaginatively called it ldapsh... just to discover the sourceforge project called by that name, which happens to be what I wanted to do (be it in Perl instead of Python :-))
I'm giving a try to Bytemark's Debian virtual servers: so far, it works well, even if it's strange to feel that the CPU is sometimes used for something else than looks like your own box. I'll use the machine to host my Arch repositories, but this is also the opportunity to put common data (bookmarks, vcards,...) while my grand replication framework is still vaporware...
Oops, I misread Alioth's terms of use and thought it was as general purpose as savannah or sourceforge. So, as I'm not a debian developer, I will have to find another arch-aware hosting service for my gift list manager...
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
