As deeply as I/we care about this stuff... I'd intended the last week and this one to be a vacation before starting work in berlin on make-wifi-fast. Since the deadline is still a ways off, can I encourage y'all to work on the document directly, adding content such as this? I'd booked a studio this week to lay down some tracks and resuscitate my right brain. This track had a few good ideas from the cellist in it, but fell apart, and needs to get completely reworked starting with a drum track, and most of the middle lyrics are going to get deleted in favor of improvisation. http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/rhysling_new.mp3 And - unless I want to fuel the anger - reading email right now isn't helping. > > (*) on the other hand a mandatory GPS receiver in each wlan router should > finally settle the getting the correct time in devices without a RTC ;) > >> >> -- >> Dave Täht >> endo is a terrible disease: http://www.gofundme.com/SummerVsEndo >> _______________________________________________ >> Cerowrt-devel mailing list >> [email protected] >> https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel > -- Dave Täht endo is a terrible disease: http://www.gofundme.com/SummerVsEndo _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
