bzflag cvs stats
StatCVS is a nice package to
generate statistical HTML reports for a given project.
Here is a look at the
Bzflag project where you can see a huge jump in activity around
July of 2003. I think in July 2003 there was work on a new branch
1.8 that got reverted eventually and caused the activity spike,
also some new devs, Brlcad and Tupone and Trepan all got commit
access around that time. In the authors page you can even see my
paltry 320 lines of code, although I do hope sometime soon I can
increase that number.
Several people have written me concerning some recent topics I have
blogged about, on the topic of Ubuntu Sean Hammond writes:
The release number 6.06 refers to 2006, the 06th month (the previous
release was 5.10 in October 2005). It's actually the fourth release of
Ubuntu.
Aside from the 'desktop CD' which boots into a live session and lets you
install from there, you can actually download text-mode install CDs
separately (it's called the 'Server install CD' version, or just the
'server' version).
Amaya wrote to tell
me about the recent easter egg in the aptitude program, it turns
out it is from a book called
The Little
Prince(pop-up warning!) by
Antoine de
Saint-Exupery.
Also Bamf and
Krhis helped
me with some iPod tips and as a result I have solved most of my
iPod problems. I even managed to get Debian to recognize the device
but so far neither
Banshee or
Amarok work out of the box, Debian's
Banshee package for one thing isn't built with iPod support and
after rebuilding it, the program seems to see only an empty iPod. I
didn't really have any time to look into it so hopefully I can fix
it. There also seems to be quite a few iPod programs listed in an
apt-cache search and I am confident sooner or later I will not have
to boot my backup desktop into Windows XP just to use iTunes.
