It was a busy week indeed, with long threads, interesting bugs, clever
fixes, miscellaneous optimizations, some new ideas, a few jokes,
mysterious failures, and, finally, a security hole. Read on.

2.5ft lizard 'abandoned' at resort
Holidaymakers at a seaside resort were stunned to find a 2.5ft lizard
sunning itself at a caravan park close to a beach.
The savannah monitor lizard was captured at Chapel St Leonards, Lincs, on
Sunday by a member of the public before being collected by an RSPCA team.
RSPCA officer Justin Stubbs, who took the lizard to a specialist carer,
said: "Savannah monitors can give a nasty bite and we certainly wouldn't
have wanted one loose in a busy holiday resort for long."
Officials believe the animal may have been abandoned by a private owner
because it has not been reported missing.
Savannah monitor lizards originate in Africa and are carnivorous, eating
rats and small rodents. They can grow to 4ft in length.
Anyone with information about the lizard can contact the RSPCA in confidence
on 08705 555 999.

gang of racist thugs for another, and the result was, on paper, at
least, business as usual. Same stuff, different century, with
apparently decent people like Mr. Salvati et.al accidently ground on
the gears of "justice" like so much hamburger.
However, to be much more macabre about it, that hamburger was
"greasing", if you will, an auto de fe only a homicidal lunatic could
love: a perfectly functioning market, legislated out of existence --
on paper, if nowhere else -- by government fiat and the, back-door,
but still elitist, will to power of H.L. Mencken's famous "bluenoses
and busybodies".
It all starts, like all true evil does, from the most innocent of
beginnings. What she couldn't do to alcohol, teatotaling Mrs. Grundy
then tried to do to anything else she could think of that had a
smaller, "manageable" demand. The bloody result was, like nine more
heads of the hydra, an increasingly ubiquitous universal prohibition,
in more markets, and for more things, as the 20th century wore on.

Acceptance should come easier among friends than among
spouses, Dr. Lerner said, because people have more than one
friend and do not need a full range of emotional support
from each one.
But if the friendship has deteriorated to the point where
one friend truly dislikes the other one or finds that the
friendship is causing undue stress, the healthy response is
to pull away, Dr. Yager said, to stop sharing the personal
or intimate details of life, and start being too busy to
get together, ever.
"It takes two people to start and maintain a friendship,
but only one to end it," Dr. Yager said.
Friendship, because it is voluntary and unregulated, is far
easier to dissolve than marriage. But it is also
comparatively fragile, experts say. Ideally, the loss of a
bad friendship should leave a person with more time and
appreciation for good ones, Dr. Lerner said.

Aha! Some backing down by the whining one?
It would appear the 'dictator release' strategy that Dave's been trying on
his crappy little set of RSS hacks is failing to gain support.
I'm going to push back the caveat-removing on the 2.0 spec by 24 hours.
Still have work to do on the sample file, I want to look into the RFC for
time-date specs, and get started on the Radio implementation of 2.0. I have
to prepare for Seybold tomorrow, and I want to a little memorial for 9-11. A
busy few days for a guy still recovering. Also, it would be great if people
who make content tools could review the 2.0 spec and see if there are any
deal-stoppers.
Hell yeah there are deal stoppers, like nobody wants it nor will they use
it!
The poor Radio customers! The poor Salon blog users! They're going to be
dragged unwillingly into producing XML content that nobody will use! So
with the flip of his mighty upgrade switch Dave is going to turn all their
content into totally unsupported garbage!!!

What, are they illiterate? Mute? What's their problem? If somebody stops
them from posting web pages, or printing newsletters, or talking on the
phone, or organizing their /own/ conference then that would be wrong.
I don't think free speech is a license to speak directly at and be in the
physical presence of any particular individual of your choosing - especially
when that individual is busy doing something else and isn't interested.
share/SpamAssassin/easy_ham/00822.9d70f64546100d8f04b7394760cf512b view on Meta::CPAN
What I meant, was a time-specific occurence. Sure, there are other
means outside of the circumstance of the occurence. BUt until we're
willing to eliminate the ability to speak in public -only- for the
side that doesn't agree with the political force, and make that part
of the 1st amendment, the parties -are- screaming and shouting over
political figures because they cannot be heard (to those figures) in
any other way.

Sure. And that goes back to my second argument -- Cohen. THey can
walk away. NObody compells them to stand there, I'll agree fully.
But we still have a Constitutional right to speak out against
policies, actions and grievances.
Again. If you want it another way, lets change the Constitution.

It's going to look something like this:
proc My_Mark2CurSeen {} {
global exmh pick msg
Exmh_Status "Clearing unseen up to cur..." red
Mh_SetCur $exmh(folder) $msg(id)
set pick(ids) [...get message ids for "pick 1-cur"...]
busy PickMarkSeen
Exmh_Status ok blue
}
(that's based upon the guts of Pick_MarkSeen)
You need to fill in the code for the [...get...] section; I ran out of
time!

on it and add the following lines to your .exmh/exmh-defaults:

No, but using PickMarkSeen (and pick(ids)) as an alternative to
just doing
Seq_Del $exmh(folder) $mhProfile(unseen-sequence) $results
seems unnecessary to me (that's all that PickMarkSeen does after all).
(That can be done via "busy")
Of course, the same is true of the badly named Pick_MarkSeen which has
nothing at all to do with "pick" except that it (ab)uses the pick(ids) var
in the same way. (Its name would be hard to change unfortunately, as it
is known in app-defaults files for the "Catch Up Unseen" menu item, but
its implementation could certainly be fixed).

The "almost" is because it's not updating the highlighting on
the ftoc. I'm too tired to go figure out how to fix that just
now and have to move on to other stuff. If someone wants to
forward me a clue feel free.
Now that I've got all of Chris' sequence stuff I discovered that

Don't worry too much : The day the server gets too busy, I'll cleanup and
publish the addresses of some mirrors, as many ftp mirrors exist (I'm aware
of at least 15), and even an apt one :-)
For now, the limit is far enough : When I unlocked the Psyche ISO images on
Monday, the bandwidth usage on the current (ftp|http|rsync) freshrpms.net
server went up to 90Mbps sustained, which is not bad as the server has a
100Mbps physical NIC! Of course, I'd get in trouble if it was always like
that, but the average used when no new Red Hat release is there is between
2 and 4Mbps, which my company tolerates, as I've convinced them it's a
useful return to the community providing us the great operating system all
our servers are running ;-)

This was not a very busy week, with people packing for YAPC::Europe, and
all that... Nevertheless, the smoke tests were running, the bug reports
were flying, and an appropriate amount of patches were sent. Read about
printf formats, serialized tied thingies, built-in leak testing, syntax
oddities, et alii.

That's on a week like this that you realize that lots of porters are
European (and managed to free themselves for YAPC::Europe.) Or were they,
on the contrary, too busy in the big blue room ? On the other hand, the
number of bug reports stayed at its habitual average level.

I've arrived in D.C.--once again, I'm sitting a block away from my hotel on the
sidewalk borrowing someone's connection. Trip was very smooth, had lunch with
Lisa and went to the Spy Museum (pretty cool, but could have been better). Now
for the meetings and parties.
Sorry for not responding to your email. I'm rather busy. ;-)

i'm trying to figure out how to maintain about 200 domains, with a
hundred or so computers per domain. some internal, some external.
i recently learned lex and yacc and i'm thinking that's the way to go.
i don't really know perl and i know it's useful but i think i can
write c faster then perl.
is this a good idea?
ps we're really busy.
obviously as a stupid developer with no real admin experience to speak
of, i'm not qualified to answer this question. does anyone with real
admin experience have any suggestions here? the problem sounds really
hard, and i doubt anyone has had to deal with this level of complexity
so there probably aren't any existing tools written.
anyone else have any opinions or experience i could pass on?

finding out about object pre-linking optimisations which should give even
better performance for QT and KDE.
Now if I had another PIII for my box, I could take advantage of those SSE
instructions to optimise XFree86 as well!

An, of course, I've loads of time on my hands now and I need something to

So. I have no idea if the Homeland Security
department, or FEMA or DARPA or the NSF, are going to pony
up any money for any of these notions. That's not my
lookout. I'm a science fiction writer. And ladies and
gentlemen, with this material, I have struck platinum.
This stuff is really hot. This is a great, attractive,
contemporary idea that is really new, really different,
and really ominous. The implications are huge and they
spread across the board of society. I am going to be a
very busy guy with this material. If you want to help me,
send some email.
Thanks a lot for your attention.

most tedious and time-consuming part of the conversion, Mr.
Poss said, was making adjustments to databases. "Every
database in every division touches bar code information,
and they all needed to be reworked," he said. "It's like
Y2K, where you had to go in and expand fields and find
every reference to the date."
Though Mr. Poss would not disclose the cost of the project,
he said the gains in efficiency and in suppliers' good will
had been "well worth the expense." His advice to other
retailers is to "get busy because you're facing an extreme
challenge."
But moving to 13 digits may not be enough. The Universal
Code Council and EAN International, which formed an
alliance in 1996, strongly advise manufacturers and
retailers to go a step further and prepare their systems to
accommodate a 14-digit code. That is the length of a newly
patented bar code that takes up less space. Its reduced
size means that it can be affixed to small items like loose
produce, and the extra digits let a retailer keep track of

And I didnt even need to visit, woohoo :)
... Proving that the threat of my presence gets action in only 14 hours. I
think I should be offended, but I'll be too busy basking in the glow of a
spam-free FoRK :)
