Hello everybody.

Things have been crazy the past six months or so. I have been extremly busy with work, and have not had any time to post. The fact is, I haven't had much time to do anything non work related.

Anyhow, I am in the process of planning a company wide Linux rollout (desktop and server!) I will post here as I make progress.

xlhtml

I just released xlhtml 0.5. I have really modularized the code, into several separate pieces. Now work begins in earnest to turn xlhtml into a library/application. I hope to have version 0.6 out by the end of the month.

xlhtml fixes
I fixed some bugs (memory leaks and the version display) in xlhtml, and put the fixes in CVS. I have been *VERY* busy as of late, and have not gotten as much time as I would like to work on various projects. Such is life :(

learning
I am figuring out how to use IpTables. I am also learning more and more C.

Web Site Update

I just did a major update of the Chicago developer page. I will be overhauling the xlhtml page shortly.

Excel Encryption

Well I have been doing some research, and I have found that Adobe Acrobat encrypts its files almost exactly like M$ Excel/Word do.

Details of Adobes algorithm can be found here (PDF File) in section 5.18(page 62) and section 6.13 (page 124)

I will be contacting Adobe, and asking them if I can post the info on my website.

New Advogato Features

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.

Keep up with the latest Advogato features by reading the Advogato status blog.
