Long time no entry. Oh, well. An eventful Christmas/New Year vacation which I spent with my sister in France is over. Full with my sister's and her boyfriend's cars catching fire, burning down of their house, subsequent police interrogations, what fun... )-: At least no-one got hurt so we were all lucky in that respect. And as it turned out, accoring to the police investigators, the fire starter was my sister's car - battery leaked and a discharge caused the fire to start. Apparently this can happen to any car but the probability of it occuring is extremely small. Obviously above zero though. I feel like I was part of an action movie for a week...
Back to normal in good old England, got round to releasing linux-ntfs 1.5.0. Several changes had accumulated in cvs so it was about time especially as I found a mkntfs bug relating to the size of the created journal which I fixed.
