Once More on the IE Bug
Just a small example of what exactly happens. Let's take the following HTML code:
blubb
And the following stylesheet: h2 a { font-style : bold ; } h2 > a { font-style : italic ; } IE 6 would then set the link text blubb in bold in the above examples. Mozilla would use italic, since "h2 > a" is more specific than "h2 a". Ok, I admit it, I just wanted to point out the capabilities of the Python Desktop Server to highlight source code by syntax.ASPN : Python Cookbook : Syntax-highlighted code blocks for docutils - Source Highlighter für viele Sprachen als Python Modul

Path Module
If you like to use Python frequently for shell scripts, this module will interest you. A module for very simple processing of directory names and filenames, which is much more elegant than os.path. Additionally, it combines the functions of the glob module and the shutil module.
What normally looks like this with os.path:
# with os.path DIR = '/usr/home/guido/bin' for f in os.listdir(DIR):
if f.endswith('.py'): path = os.path.join(DIR, f) os.chmod(path, 0755) # Assume it's a file
Looks like this with the path module:
# with path dir = path('/usr/home/guido/bin') for f in dir.files('*.py'): f.chmod(0755)

News: New Year's Eve Again for Unix Users
Very funny at the timing: There is a place in the PowerDNS daemon that stumbles over exactly this. At one point the C expression 1< <31-1 is calculated instead of (1< <31) -1. Result: since Saturday noon all PowerDNS installations have been running at maximum load, because the wait time between database queries is no longer being maintained and the database server is being bombarded with a massive number of database queries.
The problematic expression is in pdns/communicator.hh in the earliest method, which finds the domain that most urgently needs to be forwarded to the slaves, or most urgently requires an update from the master, depending on whether the server functions as master or slave or both. Details can be found in the archive of the pdns-dev mailing list. Here is the original article.
The E3 Project
Awesome: a project that writes an emulator for the TI Explorer II. So an emulator for a Lisp machine. No idea how good it already is, but maybe I'll give it a try when I have some time. Today's computers should have enough performance to bring this emulation to the same level as the original machine.

Movitz: A Common Lisp OS development platform
A very interesting project: a minimal system with a cross-compiler and Common Lisp as the programming language. Not quite a Lisp machine, more like a platform for embedded Common Lisp - so a minimal runtime for the target system, while development takes place on the PC. The target code runs directly on standard PCs, for example via a boot disk.
