The project grows, it’s now about 1100 lines.

I added search and status commands, that means it now only lacks list, remove and replace.

Since I was quite bored doing shell optimizations, I decided to begin writing documentation (port.8 and port.conf.5) and default configuration file.

After that, I’ll spend some time on polishing the whole thing and commenting [...]

Nanoblogger was a nice blog, but Typo is even better.

Yes it runs ruby (and God knows I hate ruby), yes I had difficulties with the version in the FreeBSD Ports Tree and even latest version in the trunk, but revision 434 went just fine.

I tried dashblog to publish a new post but it didn’t [...]

I just seen my final grades, and it seems my internship report and presentation were quite good (resp. 15.7 and 16). That means school is definitely over, which is good news :-).

For a long time, I’ve been ranting at portupgrade because:

it’s slow (yeah)
it’s ruby (no one except knu knows how this works)
it’s buggy (see the number of open PRs in Gnats)
it’s ruby (there’s no ruby in base)

So three days ago, I said it sucks that FreeBSD doesn’t have some tool in base to upgrade/install stuff properly [...]

Talking with grog on IRC about Google Maps, he gave this very nice url with special locations (Cities, FreeBSD Committers, FTP Servers, ...). I tried to find (again) where I was, and finally found it ! I’m here. While I was at it, I updated my coordinates in ports/xearth/files/freebsd.committers.markers.

I should be finishing my presentation for tomorrow (i have to present the work I’ve done last 6 months) but I keep on doing useless (not that useless, but that could be done later) things.

See this and you’ll know what I’m talking about. I just modified the CSS to look like more actual FreeBSD.org website [...]

I’m now 23. Yeah, nothing to get excited about but I’m not writing a lot these days, so that’s a good opportunity.

Four days left before my final exam. I still need to finish my presentation and repeat what I’m supposed to present. Well, I’m quite happy seeing the end coming.
