  • Randal Schwartz interviews Michael Foord about IronPython

I also bcc’d a certain troll on said…

I’ve added the wrapper scripts (irake, igem, etc.). Maybe this is showing that I’m not a heavy user… After building meebey’s packages and installing them: $ cat /etc/debian_version…

  • Awww, thanks guys!

    I got props for hosting the IronRuby/IronPython continuous integration. Yesterday was SysAdmin Appreciation Day. I feel appreciated.

  • mono-2.4.2.3 debs will include array comparison patch

I’ve delivered the patch to meebey, and he has included it in his debian/patches list. Without this patch, I was going to have to package up the…
