Puh, just got home for a small weeks trip to the island
Fanø. This was a very exorsting week, and I know that
tomorrow at DIKU will be
even more
tirering..yikes!!!
I'm starting learning Standard ML now, so today I will see
if I can find a nice rpm, which includes what I need. Apart
from that I just need to clean up...well I said "just".
Actually it isn't "just", since it will take the whole
day...there is really a lot to do.
And I really need
to sleep now..but my wash is not finished yet...that
sucks!
Also it sucks that everytime I try to talk to
eskil on irc, he seems to be
away...then I
cannot overflow him with the errors I found in his eazel
rpms.
Pre-limitary dates for GUADEC are now ready...it's the 6-8
of April, 2001.
Heya folks, now I am back from mijn vacatie in het
Nederlands ;)
Actually it was a very nice vacation.
Actually I may say the best ever. Being with my beloved girl
friend was soo great. And after seeing the different parts
of Holland, I must say that I like the country soo far.
Actually in many ways it resemples Denmark, so I advoided a
culture shock.
With regard to hacking I haven't done
a single thing. My girlfriend has taken up all my time, and
I must say I *really* like that way. I never believed that I
could love one soo much as I love her. I am really soo sad
that I had to return back to Denmark. Now I just got to find
time to visit her soon. If I do not - I have no idea of what
I should do about my self. I am soo deply in love, and it
feels so wonderful. Mijn Hannahtje, I really love you!!!!!!
A new day..This day didn't start out that well since I had
to arrange some importing things over the net, and it was
totally down..At some point I though that my netcard had
seen the end of days, but luckely that was not the
case.
Anyway, today is the birthday of the very active russian
translator, Valek, also knows as frob. CONGRATULATION,
MATE!!!
Hacking/Translating
Right now I have been playing
around with
the
metatheme package. It seems to be missing the po/ directory,
so I made one with the right Makefiles, et al. Added a
Danish translation and sent it to the maintainer.
Now
I was at it, I updated some more i18n files, and took a
little look at the status - yikes, this could look better.
Anyway, Evolution looks to be well translated. I doubt if
this is right. Maybe Mathieu didn't change the POTFILES.in
file after all. In case you read this Mathieu, please run
./update.pl -M in the evolution/po directory. The
output should make it clear for you what to do.
Real life
Not much more will happen in
that
area for today, as I am going to Holland in a couple of
hours...I look sooo much forward to that, and totally cannot
wait. I never thought that I could miss a girlfriend that
much, but I do! It's almost totally unbarable..but now I
am going there!!! ;);
Hehe, irc is funny..today a new dane joined the society, and
of course Xach was quick to greed him ;)
--> ziento (kenneth@ip102.esnxr2.ras.tele.dk) has joined
#gimp
Xach: eek, more danes
Xach: or is that kanikus?
ziento: it's just me Ziento
Xach: hello Ziento
ziento: you don't know me but you probaly know my friend,
kanikus
ole: godav, godav, ziento.
ziento: by the way who are you
Xach: jeg er dansk
ziento: godaw ole
Xach: og jeg er nøgen
Well apart from this the new Red Hat 7beta5 public beta was
released, and I have to say, This is THE BEST x.0 Red Hat
release I have ever seen..Things are really looking
promosing!!!
Way to go Red Hat!!!!
FYI: "og
jeg
er nøgen" is Danish and means, "and I am naked" ...I wonder
who tought Xach Danish ;)
Hacking
Started working on splitting the textstrings in Gnumeric
into two textdomains. First take is almost finished...now
just to the testing and then to the fixing...
Well not much happened until now. Kim (male) and I was up
all night trying to maintain the different Red Hat i18n
files...We did quite a job, but there is still stuff to be
done before we can consider Danish as a well supported
language.
Yesterday I mailed the guy responsible for
the man-pages site, and today he replied "IN DANISH", that
the Danish link now it added...That is pretty cool, as I
think he is Dutch ;)
Right now I am going to take
a shower and then pack the last things before I take off to
the Netherlands tomorrow - I also need to go buy some things
for the trip, otherwise I will be starwing after the 11-12
hour journey...
FYI: I'm going to The Netherlands in
order to visit my girlfriend, which I miss quite a
lot...
Today I just saw the latest PC
Planet magazine, and it had two great articles in it,
written by me of course ;) Anyway, they actually turned out
really good I think.
Hi everybody, this is my first advogato diary ever..well
people kept telling me to get an account here, so now I
thought that the time had come to do so...
Well not
much has happened today. I have been sitting here with my
friend Kim, and hacking a little on the Nautilus Console
Scripts. I have also been installing the latest and greatest
beta of an *unknown* linux distribution ;) Well I tested it
carefully and found some small bugs that I will have to
report soon..lets hope that people won't hate me for this
..yikes..but they tend to do so :/ Anyway, in a few seconds
I will together with Kim go through the Red Hat i18n files,
and make sure that they are well updated with regard to the
Danish language.
I will also have to soon port my
Danish GNOME book into sgml, so it can be integrated in the
book series, Linux - Friheden til at vælge. This is
though a lot of work and might first be done after I go
visit my beloved girlfriend in Groningen, The Netherlands.
Anyway, back to workin'.....
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.
