上周经历了许多事情，突然觉得有大彻大悟的感觉。

坦率地说，并不能说是彻悟，只是「大悟」吧。

关注什么，不关注什么，做什么，不做什么……这些看起来很简单的事情，其实没那么简单，而很多看起来很不简单的事情，其实又没有那么复杂。

Scott Long have committed this which will:

Jean-Sébastien Pédron [jspedron club-internet.fr] has announced that he has ported ReiserFS 3.6 (from kernel 2.6.7) to FreeBSD (with only Read-Only support this time).

Scott Long suggests to import these to base because 6-CURRENT will have a focus on the file system. I suggested that we have a directory under somewhere in the src/ tree to keep these Linux bits so we can backport their fixes more easily and it should be better for us to rip these things out when we have re-written something from scratch.

It seems that my blog get spammed by various parties. I hereby declare a war against spamming, also for e-mails.

You’re being watched and identified from this point on. Once you spam my blog, I guarantee that your activations are being tracked and analyzed with my knowledge base system and finally I will be able to keep everything from you off my site.

RFC也许有时让人觉得过分冗长，但是如果你没有耐心去完全实现它，它就会在不经意间突然咬你一口。

可怜的端木就被咬了……

今天这家伙发了一封邮件给我。

嗯？3.5分？

ZHAO Xin (a colleague of mine) has pointed out that GNOME Simplified Chinese does not did a good work when displaying time. He then filed ports/72722 and ports/72723.

Adam Weinberger (adamw@, one of the major FreeBSD GNOME maintainers) has then pointed out that it might be better to contact the Simplified Chinese Translation team. In a private mail, I have explained that the root cause of the issue, however, is that our libc implementation does not implemented the GNU Extensions, say, the -_^0 extensions of strftime(3). Adam have then kindly approved that the patches should be committed, and we should have a long-run solution then finally remove them.

Before reporting this to the list, I would first gather enough information.

Alu’s server boxes is suffering in continued reboot when server is loaded. Because he is supporting FreeBSD by utilizing 5.3-RC1 in his production environment (and it’s moderately loaded as it is connected to the ChinaNet Backbone), and donated many devices for dedicated services of the FreeBSD China Community, I think we must help him to solve these out.

I have plugged a new kernel configuration on his box in order to obtain a (potential) crashdump and figure out what is happening. Maybe we will get it tomorrow.

Currently I have two blog items that is never set to “Publish” state. Maybe I will have to delete them permentlly.

It turns out that I still have something that is not suitable for public consume, in the blog site.

Suddenly I think I got confused about the value of life.
It’s a strong emotion.

Someone passed away, and I have said nothing to comfort the person who suffer from this.

What happend to me?

Scott Long has branched RELENG_5_3 (also RELENG_5_3_BP tag) and 5.3-RC1 is coming REALLY SOON.
