Oona 6 Years Old!

Wow, this friday (June 12th) my daughter turned six! I can hardly believe it is six years since she came into our lives, time has gone by so quick ... when she was born we still lived in Västerås, now she has a younger brother and we live in a great house in Skultuna.

Happy birthday, Oona! I wish you all the best now that you're starting first year of school after the summer vacation. I know you're thrilled about it, as are we, your proud parents. :-)

Editline First Post

For a while now I've been maintaining a port of Minix editline library libedit. Mainly for my own purposes, or rather on behalf of Westermo WeOS, where it is used in the CLI. This library is the same as the Debian editline package, even though the origin of that package is somewhat unclear to me.

Today I decided to adjust the package name and bump the version number to indicate that my port is the same, and now slightly more advanced, than the Debian version. To that end I've now changed the repository name and prepared for merging with Debian. Getting this work accepted back into Debian is a completely different issue.

Get the code as a Bazaar branch, or view its change log through the Loggerhead web interface:

I now intend to do some further integration work, adapting the debian/ directory from editline-1.12-5 and smoothing out any remaining issues before I release 1.13.0.
