Released Libmms 0.1 earlier today, finally. This is also my first release ever, quite a bit of knowledge to swallow. Following the release, gst-mms also got commited to GStreamer CVS repo. Still has some issues, I have my suspicions, we will see.

This is very good timing, btw, as today is my birthday. The feeling that you’re able to contribute something useful back to community is the greatest gift I could get. Also, got boxed copy of Fallout to replace for lost CD of one I bought long ago (too bad it’s PL version, not EN, but oh well), and new mouse to replace my beloved A4Tech SWW-5 NetEasy 3D Mouse, which recently started showing signs of age. New mouse if from Media-tech this time, and is called “Web Master 4d Mouse", although my bro (who has his birthday tomorrow :) immediately renamed it to “Darkness Master” as it’s black and pretty bad-ass looking :). What I like about it is symmetry, making is suitable for both left- and right-handed part of population. Of course it has 3rd button under thumb (that’s very basic requirement for any mouse I’m supposed to even touch), mirrored on the other side, totalling to 5 buttons (left, right, left thumb, right thumb, and under the wheel). Gotta see if I can program this wealth of buttons to do something useful under X. Oh, and it’s old-fashioned, non-cordless, non-optical mouse, just as God intended. Yay!
