I've been really busy lately, so here is a big update for everybody.

Saw the fireworks with Marissa and my parents on Saturday, after eating dinner at a Mexican place on Davie. Marissa and I went to wait outside the Milestones at Davie & Denman right after the fireworks for my little brother. We get there, and he isn't there. We wait a long time, and it turns out, although the main entrance was specified before, he was waiting at a side enterance for 15 minutes! Numbskull!

Anyway, went home, slept with Marissa 8->. Sunday morning afternoon we woke up, and took a shower. I worked on phpMyAdmin some getting it ready for the release. Marissa left around 7.30pm when I walked her to the bus stop. After releasing phpMyAdmin, I worked on Cherenkov, my new server, since Apache-2.0.40 has been released.

Spent Monday working on my Cherenkov after waking up reasonably late. While my parents and brother went to pick up my aunt from the Airport at 10pm, I put my new server into place. By some bad twist of fate, Shaw failed for a while right after that. Once it came back, I found that Cherenkov was bouncing email :-( instead of accepting it. Took me till 4am to get that fixed. Slept till 7am, when I got up for work.

Work was really slow today, mostly because I was tired. At lunchtime I went to the picture framing place and picked up my now framed poster. It was the poster I bought from miharu, framed with a brushed metal frame. I'll take a picture of it soon, once it is up on my wall. Hugh Fisher (of ANU) worked on the MVS code with me for a while in the afternoon, before leaving to catch his plane back to Australia.

On my way home, I went to Fly Computers and bought a new 16 port 10/100 switch (D-Link DSS-16+), because my 8 port switch had run out of space. I'm selling off the old 8 port to somebody, to cut my costs.

I've been working on Cherenkov more this evening, and I have most things sorted out now, just a few things to go before it is all fine and dandy. Amongst interesting projects to be done next, I'll be writing a little status application in PHP and shell scripts to access my Windows machines via SNMP and grab some data from them that I can store in a MySQL database before displaying it on a webpage.

I'm working from home tommorrow, after sleeping in a bit, so that will be nice and relaxing for a while. w00t!
