Tue Aug 22 17:08:17 2006 GMT: e-mail Address Change
I have been using my @web.de e-mail address for some years now, but having added quite a few services to the cmeerw.org domain (like XMPP and SIP), it's probably time to switch my e-mail address to the cmeerw.org domain as well. The main reason why I haven't done this earlier is that e-mail is quite an important service and should really be implemented in a redundant way. Yet, my Web hosting provider (like most low-cost Web hoster) doesn't provide that redundancy.
So, the solution I have now come up with is to use my (also low-cost) virtual server as a secondary MX (mail exchange) and forward e-mails on the primary and secondary MX to two different mailboxes (in my case I use a mailbox on my Web hoster's server and an aim.com account).
Of course, my web.de e-mail address will continue to work for some time, but you really should start using my new unified cmeerw.org address.
Sat Aug 19 12:10:18 2006 GMT: mcabber 0.8.0
This week mcabber 0.8.0 has been released. The reason why I mention this release is because I have contributed some fixes to significantly reduce CPU usage. In previous versions, there was a pretty tight busy-waiting loop that was responsible for up to around 2000 context switches per second. This has been replaced by a proper select loop.
