- [[!tag /news]]
- It's been a while - a week or maybe a bit more - since I got the new hard disk
- and started moving everything to it. It wasn't easy because I had so many things
- to move carefully. Not a technical challenge, but a large amount of work. I'm
- still not done - the Jabber server, the BitTorrent peer, some cron jobs, the git
- repo mirroring and several other things aren't back yet.
- I'm working on them, and soon everything will be back - hopefully with some
- bonuses :-)
- The important thing is that ikiwiki, git and FTP are all back, so the work can
- continue.
- Just in case I forgot to mention - I'm now on [Trisquel 7], a fully free
- GNU/Linux distribution. It doesn't have nonfree repos or packages at all. Since
- I have lots of server related info here and Trisquel's wiki isn't as thorough
- as Debian's, I'll try to move some material there. Especially cookbook-style
- texts, since those are often missing from general-purpose wikis but are very
- useful for small servers and people with less technical knowledge like me.
- Partager software development status update: Since Sif and SGP have releases and
- Sif is ready for (experimental?) use, I'm going to focus on documenting and
- releasing Tosaf, while finalizing and stable API of Sif. Then there are 2 areas
- to work on (assuming Dilosi can wait):
- 1. Models, structures and algorithms for Naya, the query model
- 2. An efficient database implementation (Saugus), probably based on 4store
- I haven't decided yet whether I'll use C++ or a compiled functional language for
- Saugus. I'll take some time to read about the options and see if I can try the
- functional approach. Perhaps there are some databases written like that, whose
- code I can study and reuse.
