Today I've released a new version of The Fish, my little contribution to the FreeBSD community. It was almost one year ago that we talked about it in the freebsd-hackers mailing list. It's come a long way, with far more people using it than I had expected for such a niche program. After all, its use is for FreeBSD admins, it's very tied to the platform. I'm quite happy today, I'd even say it's the best thing that has happened in this otherwise crappy xmas holidays.

Today has come to me that nostalgic feeling, when my trusty A1200 was my main computer and I still had the will and energy to code line after line of mc68k assembly. *Sigh* I miss those times, specially from 1994 until '96. Those years were wonderful in the demo scene. Many good productions were released, I had a lot of fun going to parties and hanging around with my mates. I think I'll just watch some Divx recording of those demos that I wget'ed from amidemos some time ago.

I love my current boxes, and I love FreeBSD, but I still feel that I miss something from my old Amiga times (could it be CygnusED?)

I've just submitted a pair of new ports:

audio/p5-FreeDB
audio/disc-cover

I love they way the BSD ports system creates a true community.
