got out and did some life hack on bmw

Small life hack on bmw. home depot, I saved around 50 bucks with you on water pipes tubing. Original bmw washer pipes are rediculously expensive. So the sum of 4$ for 10ft tubing, lighter, hands and some duck tape and ta da! I drive with clear windshield glass )

patches are out, did I make it before freezing point?


Just posted patches that hopefully will be accepted. I not, I will have even more exciting work to do! :)
check them out:
git@gitorious.org:xenvnuma/linuxvnuma.git:v3
git@gitorious.org:xenvnuma/xenvnuma.git:v3

For sure, I feel so much comfortable with patches formatting.

I have to say that tremendous amount of experience I was able to accumulate since May of this year.
LinuxCon, XenProject Developers Summit, meeting my mentors in Edinburgh (they are really nice),
then meeting other people - Sarah Sharp and Greg K-H.
I know, the next year it will be more exciting, more challenges and more friends.

Ok, now I have to take of my job situation :)

Phew.. first some sleep

Nvidia! I need GeForce driver for 3.12 kernel! Do you need help? :)

Whew... :)

I can't believe that only three months ago I was selected for the program.
I worked on presentation slides for LinuxCon UK today. I have to admit - I like working on code much more that on slides :)

Anyways, I progress towards second patch submission, though rinsing the patchsets might take some time yet. But vNUMA feauture was freezed for Xen 4.4! So no rest after program is over, but actually I dont feel I really need it. I feel good about last changes in my code, I look at it without shruging my shoulders :)

Also, exciting enough is my attendance at GNU 30th celebration hackaton at MIT :) I will get prepared. Looking forwrad to meet Linux Foundation people and other hackers, as well as OPW participants!

repos has been moved to http://gitorious.org/xenvnuma/ by xen-devel community request.

After the program I will commit more time and post detailed program results...
I wish I would do it for another few months! But in any case, there is no way back and I will keep hacking. Makes me content.
