  • Importing darcs into a git branch

    Maybe this will make it more google-able… Looks like you can export your darcs repo with darcs-fast-export and then import it with git-fast-import 18:15 < wakko666> I have kind of an odd question that google doesn’t seem to know.

    Hey all! I’m sorry I haven’t been very active with my packages recently. I all-of-a-sudden started grad school and have been swamped with studying. I also started a contract and have been busy trying to learn a new codebase while contributing something other than snark. I promise I’ll get back to packaging IronRuby and IronPython…

  • Well, that was an eventful day!

  • Looking to get Iron* and the DLR into RedHat

    I sent an email to the Fedora Legal list asking whether they will accept software released under the MS-PL license. My friend and former colleague, Brett Lentz mentioned that he was concerned that the Fedora folks might not accept software released under the MS-PL. So I asked. I also bcc’d a certain troll on said…

  • Hey, look! debian/control and friends are on Alioth!
