Where’s the ruby version of jlsync? Well it’s already written and has been for a long time now but I’ve not had time to fully test it.

I’ve been distracted with Ruby on Rails for most of the past 12 months. OutageNotice is one of my first projects.

More jlsync and OutageNotice updates soon.

An interesting thing about all e-ticket flight details listed online and in emails from Singapore Airlines is that they only list the date (day of month, month, year) and not the day of week. Anyway, I missed my flight thinking I was flying on Saturday when in fact my ticket was for Friday. Thankfully Singapore got me on some flights soon after I thought I was leaving. Even better, they’ve loaded up March’s Krisworld entertainment program even tough it’s only February 26th. Also I’m blogging at 10400m over central India thanks to Connexion by Boeing! (Everyone else is doing it and so this is just my turn.) (ground speed 842Km/h, time to destination 9hr 10minutes)

Ob-jlsync: Rather than re-learn Perl for the next release(re-write), I’ve decided to re-learn ruby, which is already proving to be much more enjoyable, for version 2.0.

yet another rewrite

jlsync version 1.101 is now available. Fixed is a command line bug where a =MASK:/path argument could cause other command line /paths to be ignored.

Also changed in this release is a rewrite of much of the code. This is an ongoing effort (ie. a long way to go) to confirm with the guildlines given in Damien Conway’s Perl Best Practices. I’m also using some of the tips I picked up at saturday’s London Perl Workshop.

Going Public

I’ve just posted jlsync v1.89 to www.jlsync.com . This is it’s first public release. (It’s also my first public release ever!)

jlsync is still requires a lot of work (bugs, obvious features missing, etc.). However it does currently get used everyday on production systems. It will be interesting to see if others find it at useful as I do.
