- <description><p>After many years break from the package and a vain hope that
-development would be continued by someone else, I finally pulled my
-acts together this morning and wrapped up a new release of chrpath,
-the command line tool to modify the rpath and runpath of already
-compiled ELF programs. The update was triggered by the persistence of
-Isha Vishnoi at IBM, which needed a new config.guess file to get
-support for the ppc64le architecture (powerpc 64-bit Little Endian) he
-is working on. I checked the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/chrpath">Debian</a>,
-<a href="https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chrpath">Ubuntu</a> and
-<a href="https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/chrpath">Fedora</a>
-packages for interesting patches (failed to find the source from
-OpenSUSE and Mandriva packages), and found quite a few nice fixes.
-These are the release notes:</p>
-
-<p>New in 0.15 released 2013-11-24:</p>
-
-<ul>
-
- <li>Updated config.sub and config.guess from the GNU project to work
- with newer architectures. Thanks to isha vishnoi for the heads
- up.</li>
-
- <li>Updated README with current URLs.</li>
-
- <li>Added byteswap fix found in Ubuntu, credited Jeremy Kerr and
- Matthias Klose.</li>
-
- <li>Added missing help for -k|--keepgoing option, using patch by
- Petr Machata found in Fedora.</li>
-
- <li>Rewrite removal of RPATH/RUNPATH to make sure the entry in
- .dynamic is a NULL terminated string. Based on patch found in
- Fedora credited Axel Thimm and Christian Krause.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p>You can
-<a href="https://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=31052">download the
-new version 0.15 from alioth</a>. Please let us know via the Alioth
-project if something is wrong with the new release. The test suite
-did not discover any old errors, so if you find a new one, please also
-include a testsuite check.</p>

+ <description><p>Microsoft have announced that Windows XP reaches its end of life
+2014-04-08, in 7 days. But there are heaps of machines still running
+Windows XP, and depending on Windows XP to run their applications, and
+upgrading will be expensive, both when it comes to money and when it
+comes to the amount of effort needed to migrate from Windows XP to a
+new operating system. Some obvious options (buy new a Windows
+machine, buy a MacOSX machine, install Linux on the existing machine)
+are already well known and covered elsewhere. Most of them involve
+leaving the user applications installed on Windows XP behind and
+trying out replacements or updated versions. In this blog post I want
+to mention one strange bird that allow people to keep the hardware and
+the existing Windows XP applications and run them on a free software
+operating system that is Windows XP compatible.</p>
+
+<p><a href="http://www.reactos.org/">ReactOS</a> is a free software
+operating system (GNU GPL licensed) working on providing a operating
+system that is binary compatible with Windows, able to run windows
+programs directly and to use Windows drivers for hardware directly.
+The project goal is for Windows user to keep their existing machines,
+drivers and software, and gain the advantages from user a operating
+system without usage limitations caused by non-free licensing. It is
+a Windows clone running directly on the hardware, so quite different
+from the approach taken by <a href="http://www.winehq.org/">the Wine
+project</a>, which make it possible to run Windows binaries on
+Linux.</p>
+
+<p>The ReactOS project share code with the Wine project, so most
+shared libraries available on Windows are already implemented already.
+There is also a software manager like the one we are used to on Linux,
+allowing the user to install free software applications with a simple
+click directly from the Internet. Check out the
+<a href="http://www.reactos.org/screenshots">screen shots on the
+project web site</a> for an idea what it look like (it looks just like
+Windows before metro).</p>
+
+<p>I do not use ReactOS myself, preferring Linux and Unix like
+operating systems. I've tested it, and it work fine in a virt-manager
+virtual machine. The browser, minesweeper, notepad etc is working
+fine as far as I can tell. Unfortunately, my main test application
+is the software included on a CD with the Lego Mindstorms NXT, which
+seem to install just fine from CD but fail to leave any binaries on
+the disk after the installation. So no luck with that test software.
+No idea why, but hope someone else figure out and fix the problem.
+I've tried the ReactOS Live ISO on a physical machine, and it seemed
+to work just fine. If you like Windows and want to keep running your
+old Windows binaries, check it out by
+<a href="http://www.reactos.org/download">downloading</a> the
+installation CD, the live CD or the preinstalled virtual machine
+image.</p>

+ <title>Debian Edu interview: Roger Marsal</title>

+ <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__Roger_Marsal.html</guid>
+ <pubDate>Sun, 30 Mar 2014 11:40:00 +0200</pubDate>
+ <description><p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a>
+keep gaining new users. Some weeks ago, a person showed up on IRC,
+<a href="irc://irc.debian.org/#debian-edu">#debian-edu</a>, with a
+wish to contribute, and I managed to get a interview with this great
+contributor Roger Marsal to learn more about his background.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
+
+<p>My name is Roger Marsal, I'm 27 years old (1986 generation) and I
+live in Barcelona, Spain. I've got a strong business background and I
+work as a patrimony manager and as a real estate agent. Additionally,
+I've co-founded a British based tech company that is nowadays on the
+last development phase of a new social networking concept.</p>
+
+<p>I'm a Linux enthusiast that started its journey with Ubuntu four years
+ago and have recently switched to Debian seeking rock solid stability
+and as a necessary step to gain expertise.</p>
+
+<p>In a nutshell, I spend my days working and learning as much as I
+can to face both my job, entrepreneur project and feed my Linux
+hunger.</p>
+
+<p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
+project?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I discovered the <a href="http://www.ltsp.org/">LTSP</a> advantages
+with "Ubuntu 12.04 alternate install" and after a year of use I
+started looking for an alternative. Even though I highly value and
+respect the Ubuntu project, I thought it was necessary for me to
+change to a more robust and stable alternative. As far as I was using
+Debian on my personal laptop I thought it would be fine to install
+Debian and configure an LTSP server myself. Surprised, I discovered
+that the Debian project also supported a kind of Edubuntu equivalent,
+and after having some pain I obtained a Debian Edu network up and
+running. I just loved it.</p>
+
+<p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
+Edu?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I found a main advantage in that, once you know "the tips and
+tricks", a new installation just works out of the box. It's the most
+complete alternative I've found to create an LTSP network. All the
+other distributions seems to be made of plastic, Debian Edu seems to
+be made of steel.</p>
+
+<p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
+Edu?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I found two main disadvantages.</p>
+
+<p>I'm not an expert but I've got notions and I had to spent a considerable
+amount of time trying to bring up a standard network topology. I'm quite
+stubborn and I just worked until I did but I'm sure many people with few
+resources (not big schools, but academies for example) would have switched
+or dropped.</p>
+
+<p>It's amazing how such a complex system like Debian Edu has achieved
+this out-of-the-box state. Even though tweaking without breaking gets
+more difficult, as more factors have to be considered. This can
+discourage many people too.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I use Debian, Firefox, Okular, Inkscape, LibreOffice and
+Virtualbox.</p>
+
+
+<p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
+get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I don't think there is a need for a particular strategy. The free
+attribute in both "freedom" and "no price" meanings is what will
+really bring free software to schools. In my experience I can think of
+the <a href="http://www.r-project.org/">"R" statistical language</a>; a
+few years a ago was an extremely nerd tool for university people.
+Today it's being increasingly used to teach statistics at many
+different level of studies. I believe free and open software will
+increasingly gain popularity, but I'm sure schools will be one of the
+first scenarios where this will happen.</p>

+ <description><p><a href="http://www.nuug.no/">Foreningen NUUG</a> melder i natt at
+NRK nå har bestemt seg for
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/news/NRK_viser_filmen_om_Datalagringsdirektivet_f_rste_gang_2014_03_31.shtml">når
+den norske dokumentarfilmen om datalagringsdirektivet skal
+sendes</a> (se <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2832844/">IMDB</a>
+for detaljer om filmen) . Første visning blir på NRK2 mandag
+2014-03-31 kl. 19:50, og deretter visninger onsdag 2014-04-02
+kl. 12:30, fredag 2014-04-04 kl. 19:40 og søndag 2014-04-06 kl. 15:10.
+Jeg har sett dokumentaren, og jeg anbefaler enhver å se den selv. Som
+oppvarming mens vi venter anbefaler jeg Bjørn Stærks kronikk i
+Aftenposten fra i går,
+<a href="http://www.aftenposten.no/meninger/kronikker/Autoritar-gjokunge-7514915.html">Autoritær
+gjøkunge</a>, der han gir en grei skisse av hvor ille det står til med
+retten til privatliv og beskyttelsen av demokrati i Norge og resten
+verden, og helt riktig slår fast at det er vi i databransjen som
+sitter med nøkkelen til å gjøre noe med dette. Jeg har involvert meg
+i prosjektene <a href="http://www.dugnadsnett.no/">dugnadsnett.no</a>
+og <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">FreedomBox</a> for å
+forsøke å gjøre litt selv for å bedre situasjonen, men det er mye
+hardt arbeid fra mange flere enn meg som gjenstår før vi kan sies å ha
+gjenopprettet balansen.</p>
+
+<p>Jeg regner med at nettutgaven dukker opp på
+<a href="http://tv.nrk.no/program/koid75005313/tema-dine-digitale-spor-datalagringsdirektivet">NRKs
+side om filmen om datalagringsdirektivet</a> om fem dager. Hold et
+øye med siden, og tips venner og slekt om at de også bør se den.</p>

- <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/RSS_kilde_for_friteksts_k_i_offentlige_anbud_hos_Doffin.html</link>
- <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/RSS_kilde_for_friteksts_k_i_offentlige_anbud_hos_Doffin.html</guid>
- <pubDate>Fri, 22 Nov 2013 13:40:00 +0100</pubDate>
- <description><p>I fjor sommer lagde jeg en
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/SQL_database_med_anbud_publisert_p__Doffin.html">offentlig
-tilgjengelig SQL-database over offentlig anbud</a> basert på skraping
-av HTML-data fra Doffin. Den har stått og gått siden da, og har nå
-ca. 28000 oppføringer. Jeg oppdaget da jeg tittet innom at noen
-oppføringer var ikke blitt med, antagelig på grunn av at de fikk
-tildelt sekvensnummer i Doffin en godt stund før de ble publisert,
-slik at min nettsideskraper som fortsatte skrapingen der den slapp
-sist ikke fikk dem med seg. Jeg har fikset litt slik at skraperen nå
-ser litt tilbake i tid for å se om den har gått glipp av noen
-oppføringer, og har skrapet på nytt fra midten av september 2013 og
-fremover. Det bør dermed bli en mer komplett database for kommende
-måneder. Hvis jeg får tid skal jeg forsøke å skrape "glemte" data fra
-før midten av september 2013, men tør ikke garantere at det blir
-prioritert med det første. </p>
-
-<p>Men målet med denne bloggposten er å vise hvordan denne
-Doffin-databasen kan brukes og integreres med en RSS-leser, slik at en
-kan la datamaskinen holde et øye med Doffin-annonseringer etter
-nøkkelord. En kan lage sitt eget søk ved å besøke
-<ahref="https://classic.scraperwiki.com/docs/api?name=norwegian-doffin#sqlite">API-et
-hos Scraperwiki</a>, velge format rss2 og så legge inn noe ala dette i
-"query in SQL":</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-select title, scrapedurl as link, abstract as description,
- publishdate as pubDate from 'swdata'
- where abstract like '%linux%' or title like '%linux%'
- order by seq desc limit 20
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>Dette vil søke opp alle anbud med ordet linux i oppsummering eller
-tittel. En kan lage mer avanserte søk hvis en ønsker det. URL-en som
-dukker opp nederst på siden kan en så gi til sin RSS-leser (jeg bruker
-akregator selv), og så automatisk få beskjed hvis det dukker opp anbud
-med det aktuelle nøkkelordet i teksten. Merk at kapasiteten og
-ytelsen hos Scraperwiki er begrenset, så ikke be RSS-leseren hente ned
-oftere enn en gang hver dag.</p>
-
-<p>Du lurer kanskje på hva slags informasjon en kan få ut fra denne
-databasen. Her er to RSS-kilder, med søkeordet
-"<a href="https://api.scraperwiki.com/api/1.0/datastore/sqlite?format=rss2&name=norwegian-doffin&query=select%20title%2C%20scrapedurl%20as%20link%2C%20abstract%20as%20description%2C%0A%20%20%20%20%20%20%20publishdate%20as%20pubDate%20from%20'swdata'%0A%20%20%20where%20abstract%20like%20'%25linux%25'%20or%20title%20like%20'%25linux%25'%0A%20%20%20order%20by%20seq%20desc%20limit%2020">linux</a>",

+ <description><p>Did you ever need to store logs or other files in a way that would
+allow it to be used as evidence in court, and needed a way to
+demonstrate without reasonable doubt that the file had not been
+changed since it was created? Or, did you ever need to document that
+a given document was received at some point in time, like some
+archived document or the answer to an exam, and not changed after it
+was received? The problem in these settings is to remove the need to
+trust yourself and your computers, while still being able to prove
+that a file is the same as it was at some given time in the past.</p>
+
+<p>A solution to these problems is to have a trusted third party
+"stamp" the document and verify that at some given time the document
+looked a given way. Such
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notarius">notarius</a> service
+have been around for thousands of years, and its digital equivalent is
+called a
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_timestamping">trusted
+timestamping service</a>. <a href="http://www.ietf.org/">The Internet
+Engineering Task Force</a> standardised how such service could work a
+few years ago as <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3161">RFC
+3161</a>. The mechanism is simple. Create a hash of the file in
+question, send it to a trusted third party which add a time stamp to
+the hash and sign the result with its private key, and send back the
+signed hash + timestamp. Both email, FTP and HTTP can be used to
+request such signature, depending on what is provided by the service
+used. Anyone with the document and the signature can then verify that
+the document matches the signature by creating their own hash and
+checking the signature using the trusted third party public key.
+There are several commercial services around providing such
+timestamping. A quick search for
+"<a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=rfc+3161+service">rfc 3161
+service</a>" pointed me to at least
+<a href="https://www.digistamp.com/technical/how-a-digital-time-stamp-works/">DigiStamp</a>,
+<a href="http://www.quovadisglobal.co.uk/CertificateServices/SigningServices/TimeStamp.aspx">Quo
+Vadis</a>,
+<a href="https://www.globalsign.com/timestamp-service/">Global Sign</a>
+and <a href="http://www.globaltrustfinder.com/TSADefault.aspx">Global
+Trust Finder</a>. The system work as long as the private key of the
+trusted third party is not compromised.</p>
+
+<p>But as far as I can tell, there are very few public trusted
+timestamp services available for everyone. I've been looking for one
+for a while now. But yesterday I found one over at
+<a href="https://www.pki.dfn.de/zeitstempeldienst/">Deutches
+Forschungsnetz</a> mentioned in
+<a href="http://www.d-mueller.de/blog/dealing-with-trusted-timestamps-in-php-rfc-3161/">a
+blog by David Müller</a>. I then found
+<a href="http://www.rz.uni-greifswald.de/support/dfn-pki-zertifikate/zeitstempeldienst.html">a
+good recipe on how to use the service</a> over at the University of
+Greifswald.</p>
+
+<p><a href="http://www.openssl.org/">The OpenSSL library</a> contain
+both server and tools to use and set up your own signing service. See
+the ts(1SSL), tsget(1SSL) manual pages for more details. The
+following shell script demonstrate how to extract a signed timestamp
+for any file on the disk in a Debian environment:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+#!/bin/sh
+set -e
+url="http://zeitstempel.dfn.de"
+caurl="https://pki.pca.dfn.de/global-services-ca/pub/cacert/chain.txt"
+reqfile=$(mktemp -t tmp.XXXXXXXXXX.tsq)
+resfile=$(mktemp -t tmp.XXXXXXXXXX.tsr)
+cafile=chain.txt
+if [ ! -f $cafile ] ; then
+ wget -O $cafile "$caurl"
+fi
+openssl ts -query -data "$1" -cert | tee "$reqfile" \
+ | /usr/lib/ssl/misc/tsget -h "$url" -o "$resfile"
+openssl ts -reply -in "$resfile" -text 1>&2
+openssl ts -verify -data "$1" -in "$resfile" -CAfile "$cafile" 1>&2
+base64 < "$resfile"
+rm "$reqfile" "$resfile"
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>The argument to the script is the file to timestamp, and the output
+is a base64 encoded version of the signature to STDOUT and details
+about the signature to STDERR. Note that due to
+<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=742553">a bug
+in the tsget script</a>, you might need to modify the included script
+and remove the last line. Or just write your own HTTP uploader using
+curl. :) Now you too can prove and verify that files have not been
+changed.</p>
+
+<p>But the Internet need more public trusted timestamp services.
+Perhaps something for <a href="http://www.uninett.no/">Uninett</a> or
+my work place the <a href="http://www.uio.no/">University of Oslo</a>
+to set up?</p>

- <description><p>Drones, flying robots, are getting more and more popular. The most
-know ones are the killer drones used by some government to murder
-people they do not like without giving them the chance of a fair
-trial, but the technology have many good uses too, from mapping and
-forest maintenance to photography and search and rescue. I am sure it
-is just a question of time before "bad drones" are in the hands of
-private enterprises and not only state criminals but petty criminals
-too. The drone technology is very useful and very dangerous. To have
-some control over the use of drones, I agree with Daniel Suarez in his
-TED talk
-"<a href="https://archive.org/details/DanielSuarez_2013G">The kill
-decision shouldn't belong to a robot</a>", where he suggested this
-little gem to keep the good while limiting the bad use of drones:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
-
-<p>Each robot and drone should have a cryptographically signed
-I.D. burned in at the factory that can be used to track its movement
-through public spaces. We have license plates on cars, tail numbers on
-aircraft. This is no different. And every citizen should be able to
-download an app that shows the population of drones and autonomous
-vehicles moving through public spaces around them, both right now and
-historically. And civic leaders should deploy sensors and civic drones
-to detect rogue drones, and instead of sending killer drones of their
-own up to shoot them down, they should notify humans to their
-presence. And in certain very high-security areas, perhaps civic
-drones would snare them and drag them off to a bomb disposal facility.</p>
-
-<p>But notice, this is more an immune system than a weapons system. It
-would allow us to avail ourselves of the use of autonomous vehicles
-and drones while still preserving our open, civil society.</p>
-
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>The key is that <em>every citizen</em> should be able to read the
-radio beacons sent from the drones in the area, to be able to check
-both the government and others use of drones. For such control to be
-effective, everyone must be able to do it. What should such beacon
-contain? At least formal owner, purpose, contact information and GPS
-location. Probably also the origin and target position of the current
-flight. And perhaps some registration number to be able to look up
-the drone in a central database tracking their movement. Robots
-should not have privacy. It is people who need privacy.</p>

+children fingers while still having it available when you want to see a
+movie is not straight forward. My preferred method at the moment is
+to store a full copy of the ISO on a hard drive, and use VLC, Popcorn
+Hour or other useful players to view the resulting file. This way the
+subtitles and bonus material are still available and using the ISO is
+just like inserting the original DVD record in the DVD player.</p>
+
+<p>Earlier I used dd for taking security copies, but it do not handle
+DVDs giving read errors (which are quite a few of them). I've also
+tried using
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Ripping_problematic_DVDs_using_dvdbackup_and_genisoimage.html">dvdbackup
+and genisoimage</a>, but these days I use the marvellous python library
+and program
+<a href="http://bblank.thinkmo.de/blog/new-software-python-dvdvideo">python-dvdvideo</a>
+written by Bastian Blank. It is
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python-dvdvideo.html">in Debian
+already</a> and the binary package name is python3-dvdvideo. Instead
+of trying to read every block from the DVD, it parses the file
+structure and figure out which block on the DVD is actually in used,
+and only read those blocks from the DVD. This work surprisingly well,
+and I have been able to almost backup my entire DVD collection using
+this method.</p>
+
+<p>So far, python-dvdvideo have failed on between 10 and
+20 DVDs, which is a small fraction of my collection. The most common
+problem is
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720831">DVDs
+using UTF-16 instead of UTF-8 characters</a>, which according to
+Bastian is against the DVD specification (and seem to cause some
+players to fail too). A rarer problem is what seem to be inconsistent
+DVD structures, as the python library
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=723079">claim
+there is a overlap between objects</a>. An equally rare problem claim
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=741878">some
+value is out of range</a>. No idea what is going on there. I wish I
+knew enough about the DVD format to fix these, to ensure my movie
+collection will stay with me in the future.</p>
+
+<p>So, if you need to keep your DVDs safe, back them up using
+python-dvdvideo. :)</p>

+ <description><p>Det offentlige Norge har mye kunnskap og informasjon. Men hvordan
+kan en få tilgang til den på en enkel måte? Takket være et lite
+knippe lover og tilhørende forskrifter, blant annet
+<a href="http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2006-05-19-16">offentlighetsloven</a>,
+<a href="http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2003-05-09-31">miljøinformasjonsloven</a>
+og
+<a href="http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/1967-02-10/">forvaltningsloven</a>
+har en rett til å spørre det offentlige og få svar. Men det finnes
+intet offentlig arkiv over hva andre har spurt om, og dermed risikerer en
+å måtte forstyrre myndighetene gang på gang for å få tak i samme
+informasjonen på nytt. <a href="http://www.mysociety.org/">Britiske
+mySociety</a> har laget tjenesten
+<a href="http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/">WhatDoTheyKnow</a> som gjør
+noe med dette. I Storbritannia blir WhatdoTheyKnow brukt i
+<a href="http://www.mysociety.org/2011/07/01/whatdotheyknows-share-of-central-government-foi-requests-q2-2011/">ca
+15% av alle innsynsforespørsler mot sentraladministrasjonen</a>.
+Prosjektet heter <a href="http://www.alaveteli.org/">Alaveteli</A>, og
+er takk i bruk en rekke steder etter at løsningen ble generalisert og
+gjort mulig å oversette. Den hjelper borgerne med å be om innsyn,
+rådgir ved purringer og klager og lar alle se hvilke henvendelser som
+er sendt til det offentlige og hvilke svar som er kommet inn, i et
+søkpart arkiv. Her i Norge holder vi i foreningen NUUG på å få opp en
+norsk utgave av Alaveteli, og her trenger vi din hjelp med
+oversettelsen.</p>
+
+<p>Så langt er 76 % av Alaveteli oversatt til norsk bokmål, men vi
+skulle gjerne vært oppe i 100 % før lansering. Oversettelsen gjøres
+på <a href="https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/alaveteli/">Transifex,
+der enhver som registrerer seg</a> og ber om tilgang til
+bokmålsoversettelsen får bidra. Vi har satt opp en test av tjenesten
+(som ikke sender epost til det offentlige, kun til oss som holder på å
+sette opp tjenesten) på maskinen
+<a href="http://alaveteli-dev.nuug.no/">alaveteli-dev.nuug.no</a>, der
+en kan se hvordan de oversatte meldingen blir seende ut på nettsiden.
+Når tjenesten lanseres vil den hete
+<a href="https://www.mimesbrønn.no/">Mimes brønn</a>, etter
+visdomskilden som Odin måtte gi øyet sitt for å få drikke i. Den
+nettsiden er er ennå ikke klar til bruk.</p>
+
+<p>Hvis noen vil oversette til nynorsk også, så skal vi finne ut
+hvordan vi lager en flerspråklig tjeneste. Men i første omgang er
+fokus på bokmålsoversettelsen, der vi selv har nok peiling til å ha
+fått oversatt 76%, men trenger hjelp for å komme helt i mål. :)</p>

- <title>Running TP-Link MR3040 as a batman-adv mesh node using openwrt</title>

- <pubDate>Sun, 10 Nov 2013 23:00:00 +0100</pubDate>
- <description><p>Continuing my research into mesh networking, I was recommended to
-use TP-Link 3040 and 3600 access points as mesh nodes, and the pair I
-bought arrived on Friday. Here are my notes on how to set up the
-MR3040 as a mesh node using
-<a href="http://www.openwrt.org/">OpenWrt</a>.</p>
-
-<p>I started by following the instructions on the OpenWRT wiki for
-<a href="http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3040">TL-MR3040</a>,
-and downloaded
-<a href="http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3040-v2-squashfs-factory.bin">the
-recommended firmware image</a>
-(openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3040-v2-squashfs-factory.bin) and
-uploaded it into the original web interface. The flashing went fine,
-and the machine was available via telnet on the ethernet port. After
-logging in and setting the root password, ssh was available and I
-could start to set it up as a batman-adv mesh node.</p>
-
-<p>I started off by reading the instructions from
-<a href="http://wirelessafrica.meraka.org.za/wiki/index.php?title=Antoine's_Research">Wireless
-Africa</a>, which had quite a lot of useful information, but
-eventually I followed the recipe from the Open Mesh wiki for
-<a href="http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Batman-adv-openwrt-config">using
-batman-adv on OpenWrt</a>. A small snag was the fact that the
-<tt>opkg install kmod-batman-adv</tt> command did not work as it
-should. The batman-adv kernel module would fail to load because its
-dependency crc16 was not already loaded. I
-<a href="https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/14452">reported the bug</a> to
-the openwrt project and hope it will be fixed soon. But the problem
-only seem to affect initial testing of batman-adv, as configuration
-seem to work when booting from scratch.</p>
-
-<p>The setup is done using files in /etc/config/. I did not bridge
-the Ethernet and mesh interfaces this time, to be able to hook up the
-box on my local network and log into it for configuration updates.
-The following files were changed and look like this after modifying
-them:</p>

+ <description><p>The <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">Freedombox
+project</a> is working on providing the software and hardware for
+making it easy for non-technical people to host their data and
+communication at home, and being able to communicate with their
+friends and family encrypted and away from prying eyes. It has been
+going on for a while, and is slowly progressing towards a new test
+release (0.2).</p>
+
+<p>And what day could be better than the Pi day to announce that the
+new version will provide "hard drive" / SD card / USB stick images for
+Dreamplug, Raspberry Pi and VirtualBox (or any other virtualization
+system), and can also be installed using a Debian installer preseed
+file. The Debian based Freedombox is now based on Debian Jessie,
+where most of the needed packages used are already present. Only one,
+the freedombox-setup package, is missing. To try to build your own
+boot image to test the current status, fetch the freedom-maker scripts
+and build using
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/vmdebootstrap">vmdebootstrap</a>
+with a user with sudo access to become root:

- <description><p>If one of the points of switching to a new init system in Debian is
-<a href="http://thomas.goirand.fr/blog/?p=147">to get rid of huge
-init.d scripts</a>, I doubt we need to switch away from sysvinit and
-init.d scripts at all. Here is an example init.d script, ie a rewrite
-of /etc/init.d/rsyslog:</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-#!/lib/init/init-d-script
-### BEGIN INIT INFO
-# Provides: rsyslog
-# Required-Start: $remote_fs $time
-# Required-Stop: umountnfs $time
-# X-Stop-After: sendsigs
-# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
-# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
-# Short-Description: enhanced syslogd
-# Description: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd.
-# It is quite compatible to stock sysklogd and can be
-# used as a drop-in replacement.
-### END INIT INFO
-DESC="enhanced syslogd"
-DAEMON=/usr/sbin/rsyslogd
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>Pretty minimalistic to me... For the record, the original sysv-rc
-script was 137 lines, and the above is just 15 lines, most of it meta
-info/comments.</p>
-
-<p>How to do this, you ask? Well, one create a new script
-/lib/init/init-d-script looking something like this:
-
-<p><pre>
-#!/bin/sh
-
-# Define LSB log_* functions.
-# Depend on lsb-base (>= 3.2-14) to ensure that this file is present
-# and status_of_proc is working.

-<p>It is based on /etc/init.d/skeleton, and could be improved quite a
-lot. I did not really polish the approach, so it might not always
-work out of the box, but you get the idea. I did not try very hard to
-optimize it nor make it more robust either.</p>
-
-<p>A better argument for switching init system in Debian than reducing
-the size of init scripts (which is a good thing to do anyway), is to
-get boot system that is able to handle the kernel events sensibly and
-robustly, and do not depend on the boot to run sequentially. The boot
-and the kernel have not behaved sequentially in years.</p>
+<p>But note that due to <a href="https://bugs.debian.org/740673">a
+recently introduced bug in apt in Jessie</a>, the installer will
+currently hang while setting up APT sources. Killing the
+'<tt>apt-cdrom ident</tt>' process when it hang a few times during the
+installation will get the installation going. This affect all
+installations in Jessie, and I expect it will be fixed soon.</p>
+
+<p>Give it a go and let us know how it goes on the mailing list, and help
+us get the new release published. :) Please join us on
+<a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">IRC (#freedombox on
+irc.debian.org)</a> and
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss">the

+ <description><p>On larger sites, it is useful to use a dedicated storage server for
+storing user home directories and data. The design for handling this
+in <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a>, is
+to update the automount rules in LDAP and let the automount daemon on
+the clients take care of the rest. I was reminded about the need to
+document this better when one of the customers of
+<a href="http://www.slxdrift.no/">Skolelinux Drift AS</a>, where I am
+on the board of directors, asked about how to do this. The steps to
+get this working are the following:</p>
+
+<p><ol>
+
+<li>Add new storage server in DNS. I use nas-server.intern as the
+example host here.</li>
+
+<li>Add automoun LDAP information about this server in LDAP, to allow
+all clients to automatically mount it on reqeust.</li>
+
+<li>Add the relevant entries in tjener.intern:/etc/fstab, because
+tjener.intern do not use automount to avoid mounting loops.</li>
+
+</ol></p>
+
+<p>DNS entries are added in GOsa², and not described here. Follow the
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Wheezy/GettingStarted">instructions
+in the manual</a> (Machine Management with GOsa² in section Getting
+started).</p>
+
+<p>Ensure that the NFS export points on the server are exported to the
+relevant subnets or machines:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+root@tjener:~# showmount -e nas-server
+Export list for nas-server:
+/storage 10.0.0.0/8
+root@tjener:~#
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Here everything on the backbone network is granted access to the
+/storage export. With NFSv3 it is slightly better to limit it to
+netgroup membership or single IP addresses to have some limits on the
+NFS access.</p>
+
+<p>The next step is to update LDAP. This can not be done using GOsa²,
+because it lack a module for automount. Instead, use ldapvi and add
+the required LDAP objects using an editor.</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+ldapvi --ldap-conf -ZD '(cn=admin)' -b ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>When the editor show up, add the following LDAP objects at the
+bottom of the document. The "/&" part in the last LDAP object is a
+wild card matching everything the nas-server exports, removing the
+need to list individual mount points in LDAP.</p>
+
+<p><blockquote><pre>
+add cn=nas-server,ou=auto.skole,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
+objectClass: automount
+cn: nas-server
+automountInformation: -fstype=autofs --timeout=60 ldap:ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
+
+add ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
+objectClass: top
+objectClass: automountMap
+ou: auto.nas-server
+
+add cn=/,ou=auto.nas-server,ou=automount,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
+objectClass: automount
+cn: /
+automountInformation: -fstype=nfs,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,rw,intr,hard,nodev,nosuid,noatime nas-server.intern:/&
+</pre></blockquote></p>
+
+<p>The last step to remember is to mount the relevant mount points in
+tjener.intern by adding them to /etc/fstab, creating the mount
+directories using mkdir and running "mount -a" to mount them.</p>
+
+<p>When this is done, your users should be able to access the files on
+the storage server directly by just visiting the
+/tjener/nas-server/storage/ directory using any application on any
+workstation, LTSP client or LTSP server.</p>

- <description><p>The
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/v/vmdebootstrap.html">vmdebootstrap</a>
-program is a a very nice system to create virtual machine images. It
-create a image file, add a partition table, mount it and run
-debootstrap in the mounted directory to create a Debian system on a
-stick. Yesterday, I decided to try to teach it how to make images for
-<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi">Raspberry Pi</a>, as part
-of a plan to simplify the build system for
-<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the FreedomBox
-project</a>. The FreedomBox project already uses vmdebootstrap for
-the virtualbox images, but its current build system made multistrap
-based system for Dreamplug images, and it is lacking support for
-Raspberry Pi.</p>
-
-<p>Armed with the knowledge on how to build "foreign" (aka non-native
-architecture) chroots for Raspberry Pi, I dived into the vmdebootstrap
-code and adjusted it to be able to build armel images on my amd64
-Debian laptop. I ended up giving vmdebootstrap five new options,
-allowing me to replicate the image creation process I use to make
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/A_Raspberry_Pi_based_batman_adv_Mesh_network_node.html">Debian
-Jessie based mesh node images for the Raspberry Pi</a>. First, the
-<tt>--foreign /path/to/binfm_handler</tt> option tell vmdebootstrap to
-call debootstrap with --foreign and to copy the handler into the
-generated chroot before running the second stage. This allow
-vmdebootstrap to create armel images on an amd64 host. Next I added
-two new options <tt>--bootsize size</tt> and <tt>--boottype
-fstype</tt> to teach it to create a separate /boot/ partition with the
-given file system type, allowing me to create an image with a vfat
-partition for the /boot/ stuff. I also added a <tt>--variant
-variant</tt> option to allow me to create smaller images without the
-Debian base system packages installed. Finally, I added an option
-<tt>--no-extlinux</tt> to tell vmdebootstrap to not install extlinux
-as a boot loader. It is not needed on the Raspberry Pi and probably
-most other non-x86 architectures. The changes were accepted by the
-upstream author of vmdebootstrap yesterday and today, and is now
-available from
-<a href="http://git.liw.fi/cgi-bin/cgit/cgit.cgi/vmdebootstrap/">the
-upstream project page</a>.</p>
-
-<p>To use it to build a Raspberry Pi image using Debian Jessie, first
-create a small script (the customize script) to add the non-free
-binary blob needed to boot the Raspberry Pi and the APT source
-list:</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-#!/bin/sh
-set -e # Exit on first error
-rootdir="$1"
-cd "$rootdir"
-cat &lt;&lt;EOF > etc/apt/sources.list
-deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
-EOF
-# Install non-free binary blob needed to boot Raspberry Pi. This
-# install a kernel somewhere too.
-wget https://raw.github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update/master/rpi-update \
- -O $rootdir/usr/bin/rpi-update
-chmod a+x $rootdir/usr/bin/rpi-update
-mkdir -p $rootdir/lib/modules
-touch $rootdir/boot/start.elf
-chroot $rootdir rpi-update
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>Next, fetch the latest vmdebootstrap script and call it like this
-to build the image:</p>

+ <description><p>For noen uker siden ble NXCs fri programvarelisenserte
+NOARK5-løsning
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/aktiviteter/20140211-noark/">presentert hos
+NUUG</a> (video
+<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCb_dNS3MHQ">på youtube
+foreløbig</a>), og det fikk meg til å titte litt mer på NOARK5,
+standarden for arkivhåndtering i det offentlige Norge. Jeg lurer på
+om denne kjernen kan være nyttig i et par av mine prosjekter, og for ett
+av dem er det mest aktuelt å lagre epost. Jeg klarte ikke finne noen
+anbefaling om hvordan RFC 822-formattert epost (aka Internett-epost)
+burde lagres i NOARK5, selv om jeg vet at noen arkiver tar
+PDF-utskrift av eposten med sitt epostprogram og så arkiverer PDF-en
+(eller enda værre, tar papirutskrift og lagrer bildet av eposten som
+PDF i arkivet).</p>
+
+<p>Det er ikke så mange formater som er akseptert av riksarkivet til
+langtidsoppbevaring av offentlige arkiver, og PDF og XML er de mest
+aktuelle i så måte. Det slo meg at det måtte da finnes en eller annen
+egnet XML-representasjon og at det kanskje var enighet om hvilken som
+burde brukes, så jeg tok mot til meg og spurte
+<a href="http://samdok.com/">SAMDOK</a>, en gruppe tilknyttet
+arkivverket som ser ut til å jobbe med NOARK-samhandling, om de hadde
+noen anbefalinger:
+
+<p><blockquote>
+<p>Hei.</p>
+
+<p>Usikker på om dette er riktig forum å ta opp mitt spørsmål, men jeg
+lurer på om det er definert en anbefaling om hvordan RFC
+822-formatterte epost (aka vanlig Internet-epost) bør lages håndteres
+i NOARK5, slik at en bevarer all informasjon i eposten
+(f.eks. Received-linjer). Finnes det en anbefalt XML-mapping ala den
+som beskrives på
+&lt;URL: <a href="https://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=32074">https://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=32074</a> &gt;? Mitt
+mål er at det skal være mulig å lagre eposten i en NOARK5-kjerne og
+kunne få ut en identisk formattert kopi av opprinnelig epost ved
+behov.</p>
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Postmottaker hos SAMDOK mente spørsmålet heller burde stilles
+direkte til riksarkivet, og jeg fikk i dag svar derfra formulert av
+seniorrådgiver Geir Ivar Tungesvik:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>
+<p>Riksarkivet har ingen anbefalinger når det gjelder konvertering fra
+e-post til XML. Det står arkivskaper fritt å eventuelt definere/bruke
+eget format. Inklusive da - som det spørres om - et format der det er
+mulig å re-etablere e-post format ut fra XML-en. XML (e-post)
+dokumenter må være referert i arkivstrukturen, og det må vedlegges et
+gyldig XML skjema (.xsd) for XML-filene. Arkivskaper står altså fritt
+til å gjøre hva de vil, bare det dokumenteres og det kan dannes et
+utrekk ved avlevering til depot.</p>
+
+<p>De obligatoriske kravene i Noark 5 standarden må altså oppfylles -
+etter dialog med Riksarkivet i forbindelse med godkjenning. For
+offentlige arkiv er det særlig viktig med filene loependeJournal.xml
+og offentligJournal.xml. Private arkiv som vil forholde seg til Noark
+5 standarden er selvsagt frie til å bruke det som er relevant for dem
+av obligatoriske krav.</p>
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Det ser dermed ut for meg som om det er et lite behov for å
+standardisere XML-lagring av RFC-822-formatterte meldinger. Noen som
+vet om god spesifikasjon i så måte? I tillegg til den omtalt over,
+har jeg kommet over flere aktuelle beskrivelser (søk på "rfc 822
+xml", så finner du aktuelle alternativer).</p>
-<pre>
-sudo ./vmdebootstrap \
- --variant minbase \
- --arch armel \
- --distribution jessie \
- --mirror http://http.debian.net/debian \
- --image test.img \
- --size 600M \
- --bootsize 64M \
- --boottype vfat \
- --log-level debug \
- --verbose \
- --no-kernel \
- --no-extlinux \
- --root-password raspberry \
- --hostname raspberrypi \
- --foreign /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static \
- --customize `pwd`/customize \
- --package netbase \
- --package git-core \
- --package binutils \
- --package ca-certificates \
- --package wget \
- --package kmod
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>The list of packages being installed are the ones needed by
-rpi-update to make the image bootable on the Raspberry Pi, with the
-exception of netbase, which is needed by debootstrap to find
-/etc/hosts with the minbase variant. I really wish there was a way to
-set up an Raspberry Pi using only packages in the Debian archive, but
-that is not possible as far as I know, because it boots from the GPU
-using a non-free binary blob.</p>
-
-<p>The build host need debootstrap, kpartx and qemu-user-static and
-probably a few others installed. I have not checked the complete
-build dependency list.</p>
-
-<p>The resulting image will not use the hardware floating point unit
-on the Raspberry PI, because the armel architecture in Debian is not
-optimized for that use. So the images created will be a bit slower
-than <a href="http://www.raspbian.org/">Raspbian</a> based images.</p>

-for dette, myndighetspersoner på alle nivåer, neppe har innsett at de
-selv er de mest interessante personene å lage profiler på, for å kunne
-påvirke dem.</p>
-
-<p>For å ta et lite eksempel: Stortingets nettsted,
-<a href="http://www.stortinget.no/">www.stortinget.no</a> (og
-forsåvidt også
-<a href="http://data.stortinget.no/">data.stortinget.no</a>),
-inneholder informasjon om det som foregår på Stortinget, og jeg antar
-de største brukerne av informasjonen der er representanter og
-rådgivere på Stortinget. Intet overraskende med det. Det som derimot
-er mer skjult er at Stortingets nettsted bruker
-<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics">Google
-Analytics</a>, hvilket gjør at enhver som besøker nettsidene der også
-rapporterer om besøket via Internett-linjer som passerer Sverige,
-England og videre til USA. Det betyr at informasjon om ethvert besøk
-på stortingets nettsider kan snappes opp av svensk, britisk og USAs
-etterretningsvesen. De kan dermed holde et øye med hvilke
-Stortingssaker stortingsrepresentantene synes er interessante å sjekke
-ut, og hvilke sider rådgivere og andre på stortinget synes er
-interessant å besøke, når de gjør det og hvilke andre representanter
-som sjekker de samme sidene omtrent samtidig. Stortingets bruk av
-Google Analytics gjør det dermed enkelt for utenlands etteretning å
-spore representantenes aktivitet og interesse. Hvis noen av
-representantene bruker Google Mail eller noen andre tjenestene som
-krever innlogging, så vil det være enda enklere å finne ut nøyaktig
-hvilke personer som bruker hvilke nettlesere og dermed knytte
-informasjonen opp til enkeltpersoner på Stortinget.</p>
-
-<p>Og jo flere nettsteder som bruker Google Analytics, jo bedre
-oversikt over stortingsrepresentantenes lesevaner og interesse blir
-tilgjengelig for svensk, britisk og USAs etterretning. Hva de kan
-bruke den informasjonen til overlater jeg til leseren å undres
-over.</p>

- <title>A Raspberry Pi based batman-adv Mesh network node</title>
- <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/A_Raspberry_Pi_based_batman_adv_Mesh_network_node.html</link>
- <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/A_Raspberry_Pi_based_batman_adv_Mesh_network_node.html</guid>
- <pubDate>Mon, 21 Oct 2013 11:40:00 +0200</pubDate>
- <description><p>The last few days I have been experimenting with
-<a href="http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki">the
-batman-adv mesh technology</a>. I want to gain some experience to see
-if it will fit <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the
-Freedombox project</a>, and together with my neighbors try to build a
-mesh network around the park where I live. Batman-adv is a layer 2
-mesh system ("ethernet" in other words), where the mesh network appear
-as if all the mesh clients are connected to the same switch.</p>
-
-<p>My hardware of choice was the Linksys WRT54GL routers I had lying
-around, but I've been unable to get them working with batman-adv. So
-instead, I started playing with a
-<a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/">Raspberry Pi</a>, and tried to
-get it working as a mesh node. My idea is to use it to create a mesh
-node which function as a switch port, where everything connected to
-the Raspberry Pi ethernet plug is connected (bridged) to the mesh
-network. This allow me to hook a wifi base station like the Linksys
-WRT54GL to the mesh by plugging it into a Raspberry Pi, and allow
-non-mesh clients to hook up to the mesh. This in turn is useful for
-Android phones using <a href="http://servalproject.org/">the Serval
-Project</a> voip client, allowing every one around the playground to
-phone and message each other for free. The reason is that Android
-phones do not see ad-hoc wifi networks (they are filtered away from
-the GUI view), and can not join the mesh without being rooted. But if
-they are connected using a normal wifi base station, they can talk to
-every client on the local network.</p>
-
-<p>To get this working, I've created a debian package
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node">meshfx-node</a>
-and a script
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node/blob/master/build-rpi-mesh-node">build-rpi-mesh-node</a>
-to create the Raspberry Pi boot image. I'm using Debian Jessie (and
-not Raspbian), to get more control over the packages available.
-Unfortunately a huge binary blob need to be inserted into the boot
-image to get it booting, but I'll ignore that for now. Also, as
-Debian lack support for the CPU features available in the Raspberry
-Pi, the system do not use the hardware floating point unit. I hope
-the routing performance isn't affected by the lack of hardware FPU
-support.</p>
-
-<p>To create an image, run the following with a sudo enabled user
-after inserting the target SD card into the build machine:</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-% wget -O build-rpi-mesh-node \
- https://raw.github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node/master/build-rpi-mesh-node
-% sudo bash -x ./build-rpi-mesh-node > build.log 2>&1
-% dd if=/root/rpi/rpi_basic_jessie_$(date +%Y%m%d).img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M
-%
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>Booting with the resulting SD card on a Raspberry PI with a USB
-wifi card inserted should give you a mesh node. At least it does for
-me with a the wifi card I am using. The default mesh settings are the
-ones used by the Oslo mesh project at Hackeriet, as I mentioned in
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Oslo_community_mesh_network___with_NUUG_and_Hackeriet_at_Hausmania.html">an
-earlier blog post about this mesh testing</a>.</p>
-
-<p>The mesh node was not horribly expensive either. I bought
-everything over the counter in shops nearby. If I had ordered online
-from the lowest bidder, the price should be significantly lower:</p>
-
-<p><table>
-
-<tr><th>Supplier</th><th>Model</th><th>NOK</th></tr>
-<tr><td>Teknikkmagasinet</td><td>Raspberry Pi model B</td><td>349.90</td></tr>
-<tr><td>Teknikkmagasinet</td><td>Raspberry Pi type B case</td><td>99.90</td></tr>
-<tr><td>Lefdal</td><td>Jensen Air:Link 25150</td><td>295.-</td></tr>
-<tr><td>Clas Ohlson</td><td>Kingston 16 GB SD card</td><td>199.-</td></tr>
-<tr><td>Total cost</td><td></td><td>943.80</td></tr>
-
-</table></p>
-
-<p>Now my mesh network at home consist of one laptop in the basement
-connected to my production network, one Raspberry Pi node on the 1th
-floor that can be seen by my neighbor across the park, and one
-play-node I use to develop the image building script. And some times
-I hook up my work horse laptop to the mesh to test it. I look forward
-to figuring out what kind of latency the batman-adv setup will give,
-and how much packet loss we will experience around the park. :)</p>
