Advogato post for 2000-02-09 01:46:16

I took a couple of days off programming, and today I got back into it. I am doing some nifty stuff with mrtg. It's amazing how many different things you can graph with some thought.

On the free software side of things, KRN is right now in a shape that would make it a credible 0.6.10, but I think I will add some extra things. ...
