\"Hamburg's<\/a>
\n\t\tMe and a couple of friends visited a friend Hamburg last weekend, and we – of course – had a
\nlot of fun. Arrived late friday evening we took the whole saturday to visit the
\n“Landungsbrücken”<\/em> and a little later “Strand Pauli”<\/em>, a beach bar in St.
\nPauli, it was all lots of fun and relaxation. On sunday we went to a lake to go swimming but had to
\nreturn in the afternoon already due to tight working schedules.<\/p>\n

\t\tOn a more technical note, I read with much excitement an e-mail by Andrew
\nMorton<\/a>, one of the top linux kernel hackers. He asks for some discussion about which features to
\nmerge into Linus’ tree (the official “vanilla”<\/em> linux kernel) during the 2.6.13 development
\ncycle. My personal favorites are:\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tinotify<\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t\tInotify is a kernel feature that can notify userspace programs of changes to the
\nfilesystem. It’s especially useful for search engines that can reindex information incrementally,
\ni.e. only the bits that have changed, but has lots of other users aswell. Only imagining my locate
\nprogram would always use an up-to-date index every time I use it sounds really cool, but there’s a
\nlot more to it.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\tFUSE<\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t\tFilesystem in userspace. It makes things such as SSHfs, EncFS, GmailFS and lots of others<\/a> It might at some point even become a drop-in replacement for KIO. (In
\nfact, there’s already a KIO-FUSE<\/a> gateway.)<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\treiser4<\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t\tA new filesystem with lots of features which is also supposed to be very fast. I
\ndid some benchmarking<\/a> some time ago, it looks
\npromising. <\/p>\n

\t\t\t\tXen<\/b>
\n\t\t\t\t\tA virtualization layer allowing you to run different systems on the hardware of
\none, sharing resources.\n\t\t\t<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n\t\tThings like Inotify, FUSE and Reiser4 could mean a lot to desktop-linux<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\t\tOw, and google extended the Summer of
\nCode<\/a>, they are now issuing 400 instead of 200 stipends, so statistically my chances have
\ndoubled. :-)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
