Hi. We were notified that German DWN, and the Original DWN weren’t sent out. Investigation showed that Diplomats (in German translation Diplomaten) matched the bad word ‘Diploma’, so it is dropped in our spambox. I resent German DWN yesterday and the Original DWN some minutes ago. sorry for the inconvinience.
We get regular requests from Gmail-Users that don’t receive their own mails back, when they post something on a mailinglist to which they are subscribed. So if this happens to you, first check if your mail shows up in our mailarchive. If it appears there (wait some time that the archive can catch up) your mail has been successfully posted to the list, and your copy has also been send and is most likely accepted by Gmail. But Gmail seems to drop that mail internally (or sort it in a spamdropbox?) maybe because From and Receipient-address are the same. (We get two or three requests of that kind per week, and everytime we investigated, we found this is the case) ...
I sometimes find myself in a state that needs to write out what i feel or mean to a topic. So i decided to establish an own blog. And here it is. I read for some time the Blogs of my friends and cow-orkers corona and wusel and both decided to use this nice Blogsoftware called Simple PHP Blog. It is very featureful, but the deciding thing is, that it doesn’t need a Database running in the Background. ...
work the 4th day at the new company Mediaways… all in all it is the same as my previous employer ABACOM, the main difference by now is that it had 20 times more employees and a better internet connection ;-)
ok… i tried to write before, but my Netscape shit itself and i don’t wanted to start over again… ok, now i try lynx and here we go: home i’m happy that i found a new home yesterday. Now the stress starts… moving… buying furniture, install infrastructure … Debian after a long time thinking about it, i’ve now applied to become a Debian Maintainer… stay tuned.
hmmm… long time not here. ok. what’s on: Calamaris Calamaris is now stable on V2.40. I’ve asked on the announcement-Mailinglist if i should move development to Sourceforge, but no response :-/ Sun-Monitor The Master of Monitors found a bug, fixed it and it worked… for a few hours… then something else broke… not heared about it… going to bug him next week again. work still trying to find a new domicile, but it’s not easy to find something that’s big enough for my girl-friend and me. (she’s piano teacher). still trying.
Calamaris so i decided to call the last beta-version ‘stable’, and promptly someone finds a bug… ok, easy to fix… and yet another release… i think (again) that the next step for Calamaris is adding graphics… CoCaLoRes after releasing a first beta a few weeks ago, i now decided to announce it at Freshmeat. Now let’s see how big the ‘Freshmeat-Effect’ is… Those Sourceforge tools are nice. Sparc-Monitor Now a had to bring a Sparc-computer to the repair-shop, to check if the replacement tube out of an IBM-Monitor (it’s all Sony) is working… it does… for 2 minutes, then it went dark… hope that they find the bug and they are able to fix it.
Calamaris It looks like the current beta-Version is stable, so i’m going to promote it in the next days. Cocalores I’ve started a new project over at Sourceforge: Cocalores is the Configurable caching logfile resolver, a small tool which runs fine for me, and should parse every kind of logfile with fixed fields as in Common Log oder Squid Native Log. Without arguments it should work like Apaches logresolve, with arguments you can specify which field in the log should be lookuped, where it should cache and how long it should cache once lookuped data. ...
Calamaris Build another beta of Calamaris and fixed parsing of Extended LogFileFormat for use with the Novell Internet Caching Service and its relatives. SPARCstation 5 So, that Solaris could hold its position for ca. 2 more hours and than i installed Debian GNU/Linux. While transporting that monster to my car the monitor fell off my waggon… now it’s broken :-( Pissed for that weekend. Now it’s getting slowly better… sigh
Telco I can’t believe it… they fixed it within 26 hours. As far as i can see, the cable was broken somewhere where they build a cycleway or something… SPARCstation 5 I got it… i’m going to call it kurn as my other computers are named worf, alexander, mogh and jadzia… it has 64MB RAM and a 1Gig harddisk and now there is Solaris 2.7 on it… let’s see how long it takes that i wipe that out ;-) ...
