contrary to what campd says, snorp is at least semi-metallic in nature

Mac OS X-style Wireless Applet:

snorp rocks.

udev:

More udev hacking. Sent Greg a patch to automatically setup udev's initscript on RPM installation. So, now RPM-based users can have a nearly-complete /udev directory by just installing the RPM package.

kernel hacking:

Continued work on a usable events system for the kernel. It is going to rock, if everyone can buy in to it. The preferred conduit will be D-BUS, of course. But I suspect it will need to be agnostic to any specific user-space IPC mechanism in order for it to be acceptable.

Boston:

Boston continues to be cold, but today was quite pretty. Had good Indian for dinner with Joe and other monkeys last night. Think I will take the T over to Cambridge and see MIT and a certain office building, tonight.

Speaking of seeing buildings, I bought a new lens last week: EF 16-35mm f/2.8L. Yah, baby.
