I'm thinking of creating a nightly build of the webshop I'm working
on. But what is a nightly build or what should it do?
- get newest files from CVS
- prepare/compile files
- install files to some directory that's visible through the webserver
- run all tests
- create all kinds of reports
Possibly it should do more, but this is at least some of it.

After some bugfixing, I now have the permalinks working right. I also
added an RSS2.0 feed. I'm not yet sure if it's the way I like it, or
that's correct. But it's a test so.

Saturday evening I went to Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards with some
friends. It was in the Melkweg in Amsterdam. That night there played three bands.
- The Heartaches
- The Selecter
- Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards.
I was really fun to these bands live. Especially since I didn't know,
the Selecter also came to play some songs. I haven't seen any of these
bands before, but they were all really great.
After these bands, we went to some pubs. And then when those closed, we
went to the trainstation and waited for our train.
We got at the trainstation at about 02:25 and we were home at 9:30. So
I took almost six hours to get home. But we had to wait multiple
times, sometimes in a train, because of wheelchairlift on the rails,
and sometimes on the trainstation, because there were no trains. All
in all we've had much fun and little sleep.

The website generation software I use has a few little flaws.
It uses the filename for the date. (e.g. 20040927174819.tp)
This actually goes two ways. On the one hand it's a unique name for
the file. On the other hand, it has metadata on the outside of the file.
There's no easy way to add more data to an entry. (e.g. I can't add
category's)
Actually I can but then I've to change the entry format.
By the generation of the permalinked pages, the pages get
a wrong link to themselves.
There is no RSS file. This one is really important.

Yesterday I installed a new Debian setup. I used Redhat before, but I
began to show signs of old age.
Now I have Gnome 2.6 and some more nice stuff. There are some many
packages, that I'm not yet sure what to install.

I got my first GMail account. First I'm just
going to look at how it works. If it's as nice as the other people on
the web told.
It's all really crazy around these accounts. I just found a website
that helps people to get a GMail account. GMail
Swap, and in other places people are trying
to sell them.
There are also people concerned about privacy issues.

I created some new weblog software for myself. It's written in
ruby, uses
BlueCloth, and is very simple.
Actually it's a part of a system that's a little bigger. That system
generates my webpages. To create a website you only have to write the
content, all the stuff is automatically created.

Gaim 1.0.0 is ready! It's very nice. It has
really improved in the last year. All the features like
fileupload/download and the little picture of other people (and
yourself) are implemented. Furthermore it can connect to multiple
protocols at the same time.
