Wed Aug 12 19:47:14 2009 GMT: 3 Mobile Internet

Sun Jul 12 19:24:51 2009 GMT: Banksy vs Bristol Museum

Sat Jul 11 13:28:00 2009 GMT: IPv6 NNTP Traffic

There was an interesting post on the nanog mailing list suggesting that most of the IPv6 traffic seen on the Internet is actually NNTP traffic to freely accessible (via IPv6 only) Usenet servers (XSnews and XS4all).

Mon Jun 29 17:08:39 2009 GMT: DKIM signed e-mails

I have now implemented DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) signing for outgoing mails on edge.cmeerw.net. So watch out for the DKIM-Signature header in my e-mails.

This was possible thanks to the great work of Tom Kistner for implementing proper DKIM support in Exim (my experimental Exim packages for Ubuntu 8.04 are available from my .deb packages page).

Sun Jun 07 11:27:00 2009 GMT: HTTP/1.1 10 years on

HTTP/1.1 has been specified 10 years ago in RFC 2616 and you would think that such a fundamental protocol for the web would now be fully supported.

But it appears that some parts of the protocol (i.e. chunked transfer encoding) are still not widely supported: lighttpd, nginx and Squid are still not supporting chunked transfer encoding in POST request data.

It's really annoying that after 10 years you still can't use some of the great features of HTTP/1.1 if you want your application to work with widely used web and/or proxy servers.

Sat May 23 15:03:13 2009 GMT: Updated NewsCache package

Following my previous post, I have now properly packaged my SSL-enabled version of NewsCache. I have now also created a NewsCache project on my DevCorner.

Sat Apr 25 12:00:09 2009 GMT: NewsCache SSL Support

I have just added some basic SSL support (using gnutls) to my version of NewsCache. It doesn't do any certificate checking and I still need to update the configure/packaging scripts, but it appears to work quite nicely with at least news.solani.org and news.motzarella.org.
