Daily rants and notes about my work on Spice at Red Hat

Links

This is the work blog of Christophe de Dinechin for Red Hat. Think of it as a public lab book.

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.
