Code

Not a lot of work on Blister as of late. I did make the decision to shift from being CGI-based to FLTK-based, as I didn't want to hack together state saving for CGI (even if it isn't hard, it still isn't fun).

Learning about FLTK is great, though -- it's exactly what I want from a GUI library. It made more sense in the first hour than Motif did after a full day with the Motif Programming Manual (O'Reilly and Assoc.).

I've also been playing around with parrot again, now that my laptop is running OpenBSD/macppc. There are a few little issues, but so far it's still fun (as opposed to being annoyed by strange inconsistencies on Mac OS X).

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.

If you're a C programmer with some spare time, take a look at the mod_virgule project page and help us with one of the tasks on the ToDo list!
