		<description><![CDATA[I was just renewing a domain at Easily.co.uk (a large UK registrar) and after the process followed a link to the &#8220;Top 10 sites at Easily&#8221;. Number 3 was a site cattleprods.co.uk, which seemed a little bit odd unless the British have got a taste for animal (or crowd) control. You can discover the site [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First session today was called &#8220;Is FP for me&#8221; and covered the areas in which functional programming might be useful. The session was given by Hubert Matthews and gave an excellent overview of when and where to use a functional programming language.

		<title>ACCU Conference 2008, Day 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting session this morning, from Schalke Cronje, on RPM package management. One of those sessions that cover a subject I know something about but have never had time to look at in depth.  Schalke covered the basic command line usage of RPM and then showed us how to create spec files and build packages [...]]]></description>

		<title>ACCU Conference 2008, Day 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the tracks at this conference has been on functional programming and today&#8217;s sessions covered FP in general and more specifically, Erlang and Haskell. Every conference has a special track, in the past there has been template programming in C++, C# and .Net programming, or open source software. The special tracks often are on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Blogspam revisited.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometime back I wrote about comment spam in the blogs and using fake comment pages in order to catch automated spambots and record their IPs. Over the months I clocked up a few thousand spambots and I thought it might be fun to do something with them. Like block them for a while.

		<title>A &#8211;LongSig module for Mailman</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After recently transferring a bunch of mailing lists from Majordomo to Mailman, one of the features that was missed by the users was the &#8216;&#8211;LongSig&#8217; feature of Majordomo. Very useful, but not available in Mailman. Using the &#8216;&#8211;LongSig&#8217; tag in an email meant that anything after that was removed by Mailman and this especially useful [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dovecot V1.0 released.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t usually cover software releases on the blog, but some software is so good and well made that when it reaches a final release stage I can&#8217;t help shouting YaHoo and cracking a bottle of champers!
Timo Sirainen has been working on Dovecot for nearly five years and has taken a perfectionist attitude towards the [...]]]></description>

		<title>SuSE 10.2 on a Shuttle SN25P</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the last few months my old workhorse desktop computer started to play up and it was clear that it would soon be time to replace it. Or parts of it rather&#8230; mainly the graphics card and possibly the mobo. I started looking around for a new barebones setup and decided that I&#8217;d go for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Blog spam (blam?)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Anyone who runs a blog knows about blog spam (or comment spam). Here on this site I run SpamKarma 2 which keeps out 99% of the spam and puts the other 1% in moderation for me to check. But when the number of spam comments reaches into the hundreds per day, then it starts to [...]]]></description>
