Anyone who regularly does an APT upgrade will have noticed that gtkhtml2 had a rebuild yesterday for no apparent reason. This was to allow it to play nice with the Mono packages from the ximian APT component. Having done that, I've been playing around with a couple of Mono apps, specifically Blam and Tomboy. For those who don't know, Blam is an RSS aggregator, and I've been using it to read, amongst other things, Planet SuSE, Planet GNOME and BBC News. Tomboy is nifty little note taking app, it's basically a serverless Wiki. Expect packages of both very soon, as soon as I have time to do them. Here's a screenshot of them sitting in my notifcation area:

My BS102 is just shy of 1000 words, which was my target for today, so I'm quite pleased with my progress, will probably walk up to college tomorrow to grab an extra book that I want to refer to, hopefully get it finished (save for some tweaking of course) tomorrow. Then we're off to Chris & Bernie's for a New Year's Eve bash.
