Normally this would be a cause for celebration, but my lecture was at 0900. :( Fortunately, the lecturer also agreed that this was an unsatisfactory time, and the lecture has now been moved to Friday 1350. This means I have 6 lectures on Friday. Eep!

This is notable due to it's support for the X Direct Save protocol, which is a neat little specification to support saving by dragging a file from an app to a file manager.
