I never imagined that google translate could be useful for any situation when English is not the source language (I use it when English is the target language when I find some Chinese or Japanese blog posts), but now I see where it can be useful.
Yesterday I just wanted to link a timeline to someone who does not speak English at all, and google translate did its jobs - at least when the user knew what does she search for, she was able to find the date in the timeline. :)

It has been proposed on the list that we switch from medawiki to dokuwiki.
Pros: an active developer would maintain it, dokuwiki is maybe a bit less bloated
Cons: obscure syntax, for example the title '=' syntax (= is big, == is smaller) is the opposite of what we use in asciidoc.
So far dokuwiki is packaged in current, so we'll see...

That's interesting. My feeling was that recently the popularity of Frugalware was not increasing but staging, but then I had a look at the apache logs and checked the number of hits one days after the release of 0.9 and 1.0:
$ grep -c '10/Sep/2008' www.frugalware.org-access_log 88223 $ grep -c '23/Mar/2009' www.frugalware.org-access_log 216817
So it seems we recently get way much more hits than previously. Interesting.

Finally my parseopt patch in git-ls-files got merged. It becomes clear how I have less and less time for git, it took about a month. ;-)
An other interesting project (sadly in Perl) to try out (twitter via irc) is here.

It's actually qemu that calls these port redirects, but I don't know the proper generic name. So what I was needed is that a service runs inside virtualbox and I want to have it on the host machine as well. For now I just wanted the same port, but for ssh obviously I want an other one, since ssh is probably already running on the host machine. ;-)
A good howto is available here. And here is an other one, in case later one of them would be 404. :-P

There was a howto about how to host website with git - the basic problem is that the working dir is not updated automatically on push. This howto gives a step-by-step solution for this problem. Of course I know the solution (and it's problems) for a long time, but it's always nice when someone with a good writing taste puts it out as a documentation.
To make the long story short, I noticed a correctness with the howto and mailed the author, then completely forgot about it. Now someone linked it on #git, and I was wondering if this is the same webpage howto I read or something different. This ended up with noticing my name on the page, giving me a thank for noticing. ;-)
