Free Software:

I finally released WMBiff 0.3.2 on Monday, after gnutls 0.2.4 (which carried a bugfix wmbiff needed) was released too. The Debian package was done as soon as the new gnutls was in Debian, but it hasn't been installed yet, so patience... hm, <reminder>I need to do a silly, simple webpage for wmbiff</reminder>
Yesterday, omnic helped me setting up a IPv6 tunnel for my lan, and it's more or less working now. IPv6's cool! Reading addresses is a bit weird at the beginning, but once you get the idea, it's neat.
Looks like there will be another GNU nano release RSN, as Chris squished a nasty bug. 1.0.6 should be the last 1.0.x version, I hope.
Wanted to play more with GNU/Hurd, now that I have a plug for the hurdbox... had the nice idea of installing locales to get rid of perl warnings, and boom, the thing exploded into pieces. I would have tried compiling libgcrypt and gnutls on it, but the box is unusable right now.

Things:

Damned storms... I have a broken CD-ROM drive and hard disk, thanks to the last storm that came by and dropped a lightning very near our house... luckily it was an old CD drive and the HD was a small one, used for /scratch and temporary things.
I have an appointment with a "naturist" doctor the 5th of November. Let's see if he knows what the hell is wrong with my ankle, he can fix it and I can run again...
