FreeBSD talks and the rest ...

Hi folks,

Last week, we did a Dtrace session as Dublin BSD meetup. Was again quite interesting, lot of exchanges and side discussions. Since we mentioned dtrace, it is hard to forget the other well known feature, so ZFS. Knowing Anton and his taste of going through real time demos and real use cases, it will be not less interesting for sure. For the autumn, I have some ideas to vary a bit we will see in due time :-) Before that, I have to show up in few places to meet other BSD folks during the summer :-)

As usual, few contributions of mine, some projects starting with open :-) like openage, openrct2 (here it is just an update), opentoonz which I plan to port to *BSD in general (nearly complete just fix some linkage issue with *blas libraries). Also, fixed one of the doom client engine, doomretro, especially the Mac OS part, tested at least dozen of times the first level of Doom II :-)
Couple of small build fixes here, there or this one  ... brought a bit of arc4random's spirit into libbson recently as well, which is used by mongodb based projects. There are other few submissions still on review and so on we will see :-)

Meanwhile, have a great beginning of summer especially outside of the continuously rainy Ireland ;-)

End of year ...

Hi folks,

Not a lot of news for this end of year, I hope you all enjoy your moments ;-)

As, least, there is the promised release of OpenSpades (to remind, there was no release since 2014), the 0.1.0 version here which among all the numerous changes, contains the little work I had done to make it workable under OpenBSD. I may try to make a package, we will see ;-)

Also another small change I try to push for the game OpenRCT2, for making it compilable and workable under FreeBSD (unfortunately not possible to do the same for OpenBSD, for the moment).

That s pretty much all, Haproxy since the 1.7 had a "rough" start but things are getting better and probably will have a really good version for early 2017.

At last, there is possibly a little surprise from me for 2017 ;-) ... we ll see.

Happy new year in advance !
