Project
Coldstore is moving along nicely. I've finished the initial hooks from libiberty's demangler to our interning library.

opiate has added a partial language binding for persisting Python, and has also begun the process of preparing the interface for callouts to Java code. Nothing in it yet to reverse things. I'll have to take a look at it.

I feel my C++ skills have majorly atrophied. I really haven't used it seriously as a programming language in over 2 years, and so things are coming a little rustily to me.

I think I'm going to add a prefix notation interpreter to start testing our vm nodes this weekend. While it's not strictly required, it would be semi-orthognal to our postfix notation interpreter (chaos).

I also have to finish up work on my Object class, second pass. One of the other developers has an efficient implementation of namespaces that I'm going to derive our objects from. For now. He and I fleshed out some ideas for using mixins on one of the classes closer to our base class.

Work
My passport should be arriving tomorrow. My itnerary is set. I should be in London in a little over a week, for approximately a week. Should be exciting, even if I do have to work through most of it.

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.
