All views expressed on this site are my own. They do not necessarily reflect those of the Parish of Bursledon, the Diocese of Winchester or the Church of England. As such, I do not expect them all to be popular but you, the reader, can certainly expect them to be honest.
So, it's my lunch hour at work, I'd brought sarnies, so I didn't have to waste 30 mins going to Tesco. Figured I'd quickly port p.SuSE to the latest Planet code before spending the rest of the time looking at GST. Forty minutes later, I finally decided I was happy with p.SuSE, and I've not got much time left (even less once I've done this blog entry) to hack on GST. Gah.

So, p.SuSE changes are as follows:

  • Updated to latest code, which makes it easier to produce multiple output formats
  • Added an RSS 2.0 feed of p.SuSE, RSS 1.0 will follow, as will the blogroll in ROAF and OPML all being well.
  • SuSE News and SuSE Security feeds are now provided by scripts hosted by Nick Daniels, this means that they are done automatically, rather than me having to manually update them. Nice one Nick.
  • Had to remove the Novell news feeds, as they're in un-hacked RSS 0.91, which because of the way the new code handles a lack of pubDate (the old code simply ignored such items) gave all the Novell entries an effective pubDate of the time the generation script was run. novell are working on RSS 2.0 feeds, so they'll return when they're ready.
  • I've also made sure the Planetarium list is as up-to-date as possible.
  • Added a SHORTCUT ICON of a dinky little Geeko head
In other news, we took delivery of a male hamster yesterday that we're going to try to mate Tia with. Thing is, she didn't seem remotely interested in him. We eventually just had to seperate them after she started trying to make mincemeat out of him.

Our oven died last Wednesday. It's still under warranty, but we can't have someone come and look at it until Monday of next week apparently, and then, if it's not repairable, or the cost of doing so is more than the purchase price, we'll be getting a new one, and we'll have to wait again for a delivery date to be available. I dunno what Comet expect us to do in the meantime, but last night we got pizza. Can't do that every night though.

Or can we...?
