Since I switched my laptop to Ubuntu for a few months, it is necessary to build some packages myself to get the most up-to-date features or to install custom program properly. My background is all RedHat-based distribution and its RPM. I'm learning DEB.

According to the latest BTD 2.0, I would like to try Erlang because it is very promising for real-time application. Anyway, its concept is totally different from what I have in my mind. That is the great barrier at least for me. Well, I found a book for Scheme from here which is a Lisp dialect. Lisp is another functional programming language like Erlang. It is a good start. Anyway, I'm not a good student to read long text like this. I prefer a kind of learning by example and I found bencode in Erlang.

It has been a while since Gaim 2.0.0 beta 5 came out. It works so great! Only one thing I really hate is the blank filename on file transfer. It is very annoying me everytime I got files from my friends. Fortunately, it was closed last week. It's the good news. The bad one is that this patch seems to be appeared in beta 6 and there is no tentative timeframe yet. However, the power of opensource is I don't have to wait. Everything I want, I might do it myself. Anyway, I don't have enough time to figure out where the problem is so I have to wait for the patch. Now, the patch is available. I may wait for beta 6 or compile it myself to make it work early. I have enough time to compile for sure!

However, the default user name for obtaining email is in form web1_user where as 1 is the web identifier and user is the user name in that domain. Actually, we don't know its domain. The preferable user for reading email should be , however, ISPConfig created the user web1_user which is not meaningful for end-users.
