[censored grumpy meme rant!]

But then I'm grumpy today. I don't have anything better to say either.

PStreams is being used by s11n to serialise C++ objects over email! (and other, more widely useful media too.) A friend is also about to publish a genetic algorithms project that uses pstreams+ssh for communication between nodes of a cluster.

Earlier this year I announced I'd be winding up the mysqlcppapi project I took over from murrayc, since the only activity was me rejecting all the spam that gets sent to the mailing list. Some users came out of the woodwork to ask that the project stay alive and as the quantity of spam fell for a while, I gave it a reprieve. The quantity of spam has climbed back up and I'm thinking of dropping the project again (of course anyone's welcome to continue development if they want, it's open source after all.)

The FSF should have received my updated copyright assignment for GCC by now, although given the UK's recent postal strikes it might still be in London somewhere.
