The CO had told the head of department that scp was a security risk. Hngk.

Student computing

I gave a talk on student representation in computing a couple of weeks ago. CUDES seems to have resulted. The speed at which this stuff has happened is slightly disturbing. People in Edinburgh seem similarly pissed off, which is nice. We'll have representation on JANET yet.

Debian GNU/NetBSD

Almost working GCC, almost packaged XFree, a FreeBSD based system that's installable using a hacked debootstrap - and none of it done by me. There doesn't seem to be an insurmountable quantity of difficult stuff now. Scary. I've finally got around to getting my gpg key signed by cjwatson, so I'm just waiting for my application manager now.

Sleep

Insufficient.
