Well, I've given in to peer pressure and created an account and even created a freshmeat entry for one of my oldest projects, playmidi.

I'm still pretty upset that someone decided that /dev/sequencer was useless in newer sound drivers, but I was recently happy to learn that ALSA drivers have all the support needed for Playmidi and should be a standard part of Linux 2.6 kernels...

Also, made some really tasty double chocolate cookies from a recipe in Cook's Illustrated (Page 25 of Sept/Oct 1999) in the wee hours of this morning. It says that it makes 3.5 dozen, but I came out with about 19 cookies, so you can imagine how big these cookies are. Also, I melted a big brick of belgian chocolate and not chips, so there's a lot more cocoa butter, and the taste is quite decadent.
