Sun Oct 23 14:36:31 2005 GMT: Updating to Breezy Badger
Following the release of Breezy Badger about a week ago, I have now updated my home PC which went quite well, except that xdm is completely broken. Admittedly, this package is not part of the official distribution, but is part of universe. Fortunately, a bug has already been filed and is easy to fix.
Another (minor) annoyance is that the lsh-utils package is still not available for AMD64 (although it's fairly easy to compile it yourself for AMD64).
Sun Oct 16 20:24:26 2005 GMT: Ubuntu Breezy Badger Release Party
Returning from the Linux Kongress, I made a short break in Munich to attend a Ubuntu Breezy Badger Release Party at the Irish Folk Pub. Although we were a rather small group, we had a great time there (a picture of our party might eventually show up at The Fridge).
Thanks a lot to Henrik and Yadira for organising the party and their hospitality.
Sun Oct 16 20:01:07 2005 GMT: Linux Kongress 2005
As I had decided not to visit Linux-Tag this year, I have instead travelled to Linux Kongress (in Hamburg) last week. On Wednesday I attended the "Capturing and analyzing kernel crash dumps using Kdump tutorial which was quite interesting because I was able to learn some new stuff (as I usually stay on the application side and don't touch the kernel).
The conference itself took place on Thursday and Friday with lots of kernel-related presentations. In my opinion the highlights were Harald Welte's overview of current netfilter development, Clustered Samba (Volker Lendecke) and DRBD (Philipp Reisner).
BTW, I am still wondering why the conference organisers weren't able to set up two or three wireless access points (which ideally would be running Linux) to get some reasonable wireless coverage at the conference. It took them half a day to set up some Internet access via the lousy (coverage-wise) university W-LAN.

A few days ago The OrbZone, a CORBA community portal (sponsored by IONA Technologies) has been launched.
Tue Sep 27 21:08:33 2005 GMT: Simple SIP Forwarder
I have just written a simple SIP forwarder, because having a SIP address with your own domain is much cooler than just using one of the well-known SIP registrars.
Technically, this is a stateless SIP proxy using a SQLite database for storing the forwarding rules.
Currently, I have set it up to forward sip:cmeerw@cmeerw.org to my sipgate.at account.
