I tracked down several bugs last night in b2. It took an age, and one of them was so obscure it was lucky that I found it sooner rather than later!
I’ve also decided to rename this project b2++ as the addition of Smarty templates is only one of the enhancements I’ve brought to b2.
I’m away for a few days but you can expect a final 0.4 release next week.
Read the announcement for yourself!

Norah Jones – downloadable live music
You can download mp3s of live performances off the Norah Jones website. Should make for good listening in the car this weekend!
I was thinking of buying her CD, but this clinches it. I’m buying next weekend! (via Keith)
hatch.org : Smarty enabled b2 mod
If you need any help getting my b2-smarty mod working Steven, just drop me a mail. Unfortunately, after today, I’ll be AFK until Monday though as it’s a bank holiday weekend here in Ireland. woo!
Install Sendmail
Looks like I’ll have to update my Install-Sendmail script again. I was sent a Polish translation last week, but the script fails in Red Hat 9 because the hash command requires different parameters now.
Grandma beats up Airport Security Guards
Hehe. According to this story, an 83 year old woman beat up airport security guards when they tried to search her!
Witnesses said she was cackling, “Put your hands on an old lady, will you?” as she bashed both guards. The tape also showed a fourth guard attempting to grab Gordon’s wheelchair. Gordon removed a knitting needle from her purse and stabbed him in his left buttock. “What a wimp,” she told reporters. “He started screaming and grabbing his butt and running like a puppy that someone kicked.”
b2-Smarty installation
If you’re having trouble installing b2-smarty then take a look at this post. There’s 2 problems that might cause you trouble:
- Enable register_globals in your php.ini
- Make sure you copy the files in properly.
I’m dumbfounded to read that people prefer to edit code and HTML mixed in together. There’s just so many advantages to seperating the code and content out! I’m not going to go on about it, as others have explained all this better than I can.

www.waitallday.com – very impressive site! They’ve packed so much in, but be prepared to wait a bit while it loads! (Thanks Diamond for that one!)
The dullest blog in the world
Yes, despite the name The dullest blog in the world is interesting, if only to admire the mundane world we all live in.
I noticed that there were a few things lying around here and there. I decided to leave them where they were.

Welcome To Windows!
Ouch! This cartoon made me cringe!
Red Hat 9 and software modems
Bah! I installed RH 9 at home and now I can’t get my software modem working! The hcfpci driver refuses to compile giving some obscure GCC error about parameters! So, I’m typing this in an internet cafe, otherwise I’d provide links and debug messages for you to digest. Hopefully updated drivers will be forthcoming. In the meantime I’ll have to pry the rpm open and hack the source to get it to compile..
So, if I promised to look at b2 bugs for you this weekend, it probably won’t happen, sorry! I’ll be back on Monday!
