Daily rants and notes about my work at Red Hat

Links

This is the personal (and somewhat messy) work blog of Christophe de Dinechin for Red Hat. Think of it as a kind of public lab book, nothing more, nothing less.

This should not be particularly interesting except to myself. It's really more intended as a set of personal notes, so there is no formatting whatsoever. I type tings as I go along during the day. All you'll find here are things like stack traces, Linux commands I want to remember or bugzilla links I want to be able to return to.

If you want to read stuff about my work at Red Hat that I believe is more interesting to the general public, you will find it on A Spice Odyssey. If you want to read my rants about everything else, go to Grenouille Bouillie. This is about as much advertisement as you will find on this site.
