Time for a diary entry... I'm sick as a dog and so is the rest of my family. The kind of cold that I would expect in Moscow, but not in DC doesn't help either.

Is it just me or has slashdot become a complete bore?

Released mod_python 2.7. I'm quite proud of this one... Other than that, just another crazy day.

I am now at a point when I think mod_python documentation actually looks pretty good. When compiled as PDF it turns out to be a 55 page document... I'm quite proud of it, tough it deserves some more work. This is all in CVS only for now. I think 2.7 will be the last Apashe 1.3 release, after that, I'm going to start focusing on Apache 2.0.

On other fronts - not much going on (well... considering that we have a three month old Michael and a full schedule at work...)

As a Christmas present I'm considering getting myself a nice synthesizer... Any suggestions are welcome.

P.S. Saw a cool sig today:

Just got my new Apple airport working with a Lucent WaveLAN card. This is really nice. I can now sit by the fireplace with my trusty Vaio running FreeBSD and type advogato diary entries. If you live in a house and have a laptop you must get one of these things, they rule and the price is right.

If only I could figure out a way to supply power wirelessly....

I now have the Python documentation in LaTeX all figured out. Mod_python documentation now looks really great with an index, pdf ability and everything. It's not in CVS quite yet because I still have some LaTeX typing to do, but by mid next week I should have it.

Tomorrow I'm driving to Connecticut to bring my wife and and kids back home on Sunday. My "vacation" is over....

OK, this is my first entry here.... For the past three days I've been learning LaTeX. So far so good.

New Advogato Features

New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

Keep up with the latest Advogato features by reading the Advogato status blog.
