- <description><p>A few hours ago, a new and improved version (2.4) of
-<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/vlc-plugin-bittorrent">the VLC
-bittorrent plugin</a> was uploaded to Debian. This new version
-include a complete rewrite of the bittorrent related code, which seem
-to make the plugin non-blocking. This mean you can actually exit VLC
-even when the plugin seem to be unable to get the bittorrent streaming
-started. The new version also include support for filtering playlist
-by file extension using command line options, if you want to avoid
-processing audio, video or images. The package is currently in Debian
-unstable, but should be available in Debian testing in two days. To
-test it, simply install it like this:</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-apt install vlc-plugin-bittorrent
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>After it is installed, you can try to use it to play a file
-downloaded live via bittorrent like this:
-
-<p><pre>
-vlc https://archive.org/download/Glass_201703/Glass_201703_archive.torrent
-</pre></p>

+ <description><p>Half a year ago,
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Jami_Ring__finally_functioning_peer_to_peer_communication_client.html">I
+wrote</a> about <a href="https://jami.net/">the Jami communication
+client</a>, capable of peer-to-peer encrypted communication. It
+handle both messages, audio and video. It uses distributed hash
+tables instead of central infrastructure to connect its users to each
+other, which in my book is a plus. I mentioned briefly that it could
+also work as a SIP client, which came in handy when the higher
+educational sector in Norway started to promote Zoom as its video
+conferencing solution. I am reluctant to use the official Zoom client
+software, due to their <a href="https://zoom.us/terms">copyright
+license clauses</a> prohibiting users to reverse engineer (for example
+to check the security) and benchmark it, and thus prefer to connect to
+Zoom meetings with free software clients.</p>
+
+<p>Jami worked OK as a SIP client to Zoom as long as there was no
+password set on the room. The Jami daemon leak memory like crazy
+(approximately 1 GiB a minute) when I am connected to the video
+conference, so I had to restart the client every 7-10 minutes, which
+is not a great. I tried to get other SIP Linux clients to work
+without success, so I decided I would have to live with this wart
+until someone managed to fix the leak in the dring code base. But
+another problem showed up once the rooms were password protected. I
+could not get my dial tone signaling through from Jami to Zoom, and
+dial tone signaling is used to enter the password when connecting to
+Zoom. I tried a lot of different permutations with my Jami and
+Asterisk setup to try to figure out why the signaling did not get
+through, only to finally discover that the fundamental problem seem to
+be that Zoom is simply not able to receive dial tone signaling when
+connecting via SIP. There seem to be nothing wrong with the Jami and
+Asterisk end, it is simply broken in the Zoom end. I got help from a
+very skilled VoIP engineer figuring out this last part. And being a
+very skilled engineer, he was also able to locate a solution for me.
+Or to be exact, a workaround that solve my initial problem of
+connecting to password protected Zoom rooms using Jami.</p>
+
+<p>So, how do you do this, I am sure you are wondering by now. The
+trick is already
+<a href="https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/202405539-H-323-SIP-Room-Connector-Dial-Strings#sip">documented
+from Zoom</a>, and it is to modify the SIP address to include the room
+password. What is most surprising about this is that the
+automatically generated email from Zoom with instructions on how to
+connect via SIP do not mention this. The SIP address to use normally
+consist of the room ID (a number), an @ character and the IP address
+of the Zoom SIP gateway. But Zoom understand a lot more than just the
+room ID in front of the at sign. The format is "<tt>[Meeting
+ID].[Password].[Layout].[Host Key]</tt>", and you can hear see how you
+can both enter password, control the layout (full screen, active
+presence and gallery) and specify the host key to start the meeting.
+The full SIP address entered into Jami to provide the password will
+then look like this (all using made up numbers):</p>
<p><blockquote>
-Enhver har rett til å bevege seg fritt og til fritt å velge
-oppholdssted innenfor en stats grenser.
+<tt>sip:657837644.522827@192.168.169.170</tt>
</blockquote></p>
-<p>Det er altså en menneskerett å kunne bevege seg fritt i landet.
-For å bevege seg fritt i landet, så må en kunne bevege seg uten å bli
-sporet. Det vil i dagens samfunn innebære å bevege seg uten å legge
-igjen digitale spor og uten å være radiomerket. Hvis en vet at ens
-bevegelser, hvor en befinner seg når, og hvem som befinner seg i
-nærheten, blir samlet inn og gjort tilgjengelig for fremmede, det være
-seg myndighetene eller private organisasjoner, så kan en ikke lenger
-bevege seg fritt. Dette gjør at det er en forutsetning for å ha glede
-av retten til å bevege seg fritt i landet at en motstår fristelsen til
-å legge igjen digitale spor når en betaler for seg. Rettigheter som
-ikke blir brukt, blir fjernet. Den eneste måten i dag å unngå å legge
-igjen digitale spor når en betaler for seg, er å betale med kontanter,
-samt takke nei til å legge igjen navn og adresse (slik f.eks. Elkjøp
-ber om &mdash; jeg sier de kan legge inn «anonym anonym» når
-datasystemet deres trenger et navn). Personlig anbefaler jeg å
-konsekvent bruke kontant betaling når man beveger seg rundt, for å
-bidra til forsvaret av menneskerettighetene i Norge. Kanskje noe også
-for deg? Merk at det ikke er tilstrekkelig for å unngå sporing å
-betale med kontanter, men det er et lite steg i riktig retning.</p>
-
-<p>Det er flere andre argumenter i tillegg til
-menneskerettighetsargumentet for å bruke kontanter. I går hadde
-Dagbladet en utmerket kommentar av sin journalist John Olav Egeland om
-hvilket
-<a href="https://www.dagbladet.no/kultur/kontantlost-diktatur/70543434">kontantløst
-diktatur</a> som venter oss hvis mange nok slutter å insistere på å
-betale med kontanter. Jeg anbefaler deg å lese den.</p>

- <description><p>Yesterday, I had the pleasure of watching on Frikanalen the OWASP
-talk by Scott Helme titled
-"<a href="https://frikanalen.no/video/626080/">What We’ve Learned From
-Billions of Security Reports</a>". I had not heard of the
-<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_Security_Policy">Content
-Security Policy standard</a> nor its ability to "call home" when a
-browser detect a policy breach (I do not follow web page design
-development much these days), and found the talk very illuminating.</p>
-
-<p>The mechanism allow a web site owner to use HTTP headers to tell
-visitors web browser which sources (internal and external) are allowed to
-be used on the web site. Thus it become possible to enforce a "only
-local content" policy despite web designers urge to fetch programs
-from random sites on the Internet, like the one
-<a href="https://securityaffairs.co/wordpress/68966/hacking/browsealoud-plugin-hack.html">enabling
-the attack</a> reported by Scott Helme earlier this year.</p>
-
-<p>Using CSP seem like an obvious thing for a site admin to implement
-to take some control over the information leak that occur when
-external sources are used to render web pages, it is a mystery more
-sites are not using CSP? It is being
-<a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/CSP/">standardized under W3C</a> these
-days, and is supposed by most web browsers</p>
-
-<p>I managed to find <a href="https://github.com/mozilla/django-csp">a
-Django middleware for implementing CSP</a> and was happy to discover
-it was already in Debian. I plan to use it to add CSP support to the
-Frikanalen web site soon.</p>
+<p>Now if only jami would reduce its memory usage, I could even
+recommend this setup to others. :)</p>

- <description><p>If you read my blog regularly, you probably know I am involved in
-running and developing the <a href="https://frikanalen.no/">Norwegian
-TV channel Frikanalen</a>. It is an open channel, allowing everyone
-in Norway to publish videos on a TV channel with national coverage.
-You can think of it as Youtube for national television.
-In addition to distribution on RiksTV and Uninett, Frikanalen is also
-available as a Kodi addon. The last few days I have updated the code
-to add more features. A
-<a href="https://kodi.tv/addon/plugins-video-add-ons/frikanalen-nett-tv">new
-and improved version 0.0.3 Frikanalen addon</a> was just made
-available via the Kodi repositories. This new version include a
-option to browse videos by category, as well as free text search
-in the video archive. It will now also show the video duration in the
-video lists, which were missing earlier. A new and experimental
-link to the HD video stream currently being worked on is provided, for
-those that want to see what the <a href="https://casparcg.com/">CasparCG</a>
-output look like. The alternative is the SD video stream, generated
-using MLT. CasparCG is controlled by our
-<a href="https://github.com/Frikanalen/mltplayout/">mltplayout
-server</a> which instead of talking to mlt is giving PLAY instructions
-to the CasparCG server when it is time to start a new program.</p>
-
-<p>By now, you are probably wondering what kind of content is being
-played on the channel. These days, it is filled with technical
-presentations like those from <a href="https://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a>,
-<a href="https://www.debconf.org/">Debconf</a>, Makercon, and TED,
-but there are also some periods with
-<a href="https://www.empo.no/">EMPT TV</a> and

+ <description><p>The curiosity got the better of me when
+<a href="https://developers.slashdot.org/story/20/04/06/1424246/new-jersey-desperately-needs-cobol-programmers">Slashdot
+reported</a> that New Jersey was desperately looking for
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COBOL">COBOL</a> programmers,
+and a few days later it was reported that
+<a href="https://onezero.medium.com/ibm-rallies-cobol-engineers-to-save-overloaded-unemployment-systems-eeadf13eddce">IBM
+tried to locate COBOL programmers</a>.</p>
+
+<p>I thus decided to have a look at free software alternatives to
+learn COBOL, and had the pleasure to find
+<a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/open-cobol/">GnuCOBOL</a> was
+already <a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gnucobol">in
+Debian</a>. It used to be called Open Cobol, and is a "compiler"
+transforming COBOL code to C or C++ before giving it to GCC or Visual
+Studio to build binaries.</p>
+
+<p>I managed to get in touch with upstream, and was impressed with the
+quick response, and also was happy to see a new Debian maintainer
+taking over when the original one recently asked to be replaced. A
+new Debian upload was done as recently as yesterday.</p>
+
+<p>Using the Debian package, I was able to follow a simple COBOL
+introduction and make and run simple COBOL programs. It was fun to
+learn a new programming language. If you want to test for yourself,
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GnuCOBOL">the GnuCOBOL Wikipedia
+page</a> have a few simple examples to get you startet.</p>
+
+<p>As I do not have much experience with COBOL, I do not know how
+standard compliant it is, but it claim to pass most tests from COBOL
+test suite, which sound good to me. It is nice to know it is possible
+to learn COBOL using software without any usage restrictions, and I am
+very happy such nice free software project as this is available. If
+you as me is curious about COBOL, check it out.</p>

- <description><p>As part of my involvement in
-<a href="https://gitlab.com/OsloMet-ABI/nikita-noark5-core">the Nikita
-archive API project</a>, I've been importing a fairly large lump of
-emails into a test instance of the archive to see how well this would
-go. I picked a subset of <a href="https://notmuchmail.org/">my
-notmuch email database</a>, all public emails sent to me via
-@lists.debian.org, giving me a set of around 216 000 emails to import.
-In the process, I had a look at the various attachments included in
-these emails, to figure out what to do with attachments, and noticed
-that one of the most common attachment formats do not have
-<a href="https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml">an
-official MIME type</a> registered with IANA/IETF. The output from
-diff, ie the input for patch, is on the top 10 list of formats
-included in these emails. At the moment people seem to use either
-text/x-patch or text/x-diff, but neither is officially registered. It
-would be better if one official MIME type were registered and used
-everywhere.</p>
-
-<p>To try to get one official MIME type for these files, I've brought
-up the topic on
-<a href="https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/media-types">the
-media-types mailing list</a>. If you are interested in discussion
-which MIME type to use as the official for patch files, or involved in
-making software using a MIME type for patches, perhaps you would like

+ <description><p>Jeg er blitt spurt hva jeg synes om lansering av smittestopp-appen,
+overvåkningsløsningen lansert av Folkehelseinstituttet,
+Simula-senteret og Regjeringen i dag, fulgt av klare trusler fra
+regjeringen om konsekvenser hvis befolkningen ikke tar den i bruk.
+Rekker ikke skrive noe fyldig om temaet, men det er klart for meg at
+den utraderer retten til privatliv samt utgjør en personlig
+sikkerhetsrisiko for alle som tar den i bruk. Bare det er nok til at
+det fremstår som en svært dårlig ide å bli med på denne "dugnaden".
+Det finnes andre og bedre tilnærminger enn den valgt av FHI. Har de
+valgt sin tilnærming for å sikre seg nok et datasett i den fremtidige
+ehelse-portalen? Potensialet for misbruk av informasjon samlet inn av
+appen er for stort, effekten på neste krise for klar og gevinsten for
+liten.</p>
+
+<p>For å si det med forhenværende leder i Datatilsynet, Georg Apenes,
+som skrev i en kronikk den gang Datatilsynet vernet
+privatsfæren at
+«<a href="https://www.dagbladet.no/kultur/rent-mel-i-bilen/66333882">SENTRALT
+I en liberal forestillingsverden finner vi aksept av borgerens rett
+til å kunne velge å være i fred; å være u-iakttatt, uregistrert og
+anonym</a>». Det er ikke uten grunn han startet kronikken med
+«Personvern et fremmedord i enkelte av de statsorganene som samler
+inn, oppbevarer og bruker personopplysninger». Der har nok
+statsorganene bare blitt dårligere på 13 år.</p>
+
+<p>Det er jo også verdt å merke seg at personvernrådet i EU (EDPB)
+mener smittestopp-appen
+<a href="https://nrkbeta.no/2020/04/16/personvernrad-i-eu-mener-norsk-app-bryter-med-viktig-personvernprinsipp/">opererer

-
-<p>My current home stereo is a patchwork of various pieces I got on
-flee markeds over the years. It is amazing what kind of equipment
-show up there. I've been wondering for a while if it was possible to
-measure how well this equipment is working together, and decided to
-see how far I could get using free software. After trawling the web I
-came across an article from DIY Audio and Video on
-<a href="https://www.diyaudioandvideo.com/Tutorial/SpeakerResponseTesting/">Speaker
-Testing and Analysis</a> describing how to test speakers, and it listing
-several software options, among them
-<a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/audmes/">AUDio MEasurement
-System (AUDMES)</a>. It is the only free software system I could find
-focusing on measuring speakers and audio frequency response. In the
-process I also found an interesting article from NOVO on
-<a href="http://novo.press/understanding-speaker-specifications-and-frequency-response/">Understanding
-Speaker Specifications and Frequency Response</a> and an article from
-ecoustics on
-<a href="https://www.ecoustics.com/articles/understanding-speaker-frequency-response/">Understanding
-Speaker Frequency Response</a>, with a lot of information on what to
-look for and how to interpret the graphs. Armed with this knowledge,
-I set out to measure the state of my speakers.</p>
-
-<p>The first hurdle was that AUDMES hadn't seen a commit for 10 years
-and did not build with current compilers and libraries. I got in
-touch with its author, who no longer was spending time on the program
-but gave me write access to the subversion repository on Sourceforge.
-The end result is that now the code build on Linux and is capable of
-saving and loading the collected frequency response data in CSV
-format. The application is quite nice and flexible, and I was able to
-select the input and output audio interfaces independently. This made
-it possible to use a USB mixer as the input source, while sending
-output via my laptop headphone connection. I lacked the hardware and
-cabling to figure out a different way to get independent cabling to
-speakers and microphone.</p>
-
-<p>Using this setup I could see how a large range of high frequencies
-apparently were not making it out of my speakers. The picture show
-the frequency response measurement of one of the speakers. Note the
-frequency lines seem to be slightly misaligned, compared to the CSV
-output from the program. I can not hear several of these are high
-frequencies, according to measurement from
-<a href="http://freehearingtestsoftware.com">Free Hearing Test
-Software</a>, an freeware system to measure your hearing (still
-looking for a free software alternative), so I do not know if they are
-coming out out the speakers. I thus do not quite know how to figure
-out if the missing frequencies is a problem with the microphone, the
-amplifier or the speakers, but I managed to rule out the audio card in my
-PC by measuring my Bose noise canceling headset using its own
-microphone. This setup was able to see the high frequency tones, so
-the problem with my stereo had to be in the amplifier or speakers.</p>
-
-<p>Anyway, to try to role out one factor I ended up picking up a new
-set of speakers at a flee marked, and these work a lot better than the
-old speakers, so I guess the microphone and amplifier is OK. If you
-need to measure your own speakers, check out AUDMES. If more people
-get involved, perhaps the project could become good enough to
-<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/910876">include in Debian</a>? And if
-you know of some other free software to measure speakers and amplifier
-performance, please let me know. I am aware of the freeware option
-<a href="https://www.roomeqwizard.com/">REW</a>, but I want something
-that can be developed also when the vendor looses interest.</p>

-<p>Almost a month ago
-<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/vlc-plugin-bittorrent">a new
-package adding Bittorrent support to VLC</a> became available in
-Debian testing and unstable. To test it, simply install it like
-this:</p>
-
-<p><pre>
-apt install vlc-plugin-bittorrent
-</pre></p>
-
-<p>Since the plugin was made available for the first time in Debian,
-several improvements have been made to it. In version 2.2-4, now
-available in both testing and unstable, a desktop file is provided to
-teach browsers to start VLC when the user click on torrent files or
-magnet links. The last part is thanks to me finally understanding
-what the strange x-scheme-handler style MIME types in desktop files
-are used for. By adding x-scheme-handler/magnet to the MimeType entry
-in the desktop file, at least the browsers Firefox and Chromium will
-suggest to start VLC when selecting a magnet URI on a web page. The
-end result is that now, with the plugin installed in Buster and Sid,
-one can visit any
-<a href="https://archive.org/details/CopyingIsNotTheft1080p">Internet
-Archive page with movies</a> using a web browser and click on the
-torrent link to start streaming the movie.</p>
-
-<p>Note, there is still some misfeatures in the plugin. One is the
-fact that it will hang and
-<a href="https://github.com/johang/vlc-bittorrent/issues/13">block VLC
-from exiting until the torrent streaming starts</a>. Another is the
-fact that it
-<a href="https://github.com/johang/vlc-bittorrent/issues/9">will pick
-and play a random file in a multi file torrent</a>. This is not
-always the video file you want. Combined with the first it can be a
-bit hard to get the video streaming going. But when it work, it seem
-to do a good job.</p>
-
-<p>For the Debian packaging, I would love to find a good way to test
-if the plugin work with VLC using autopkgtest. I tried, but do not
-know enough of the inner workings of VLC to get it working. For now
-the autopkgtest script is only checking if the .so file was
-successfully loaded by VLC. If you have any suggestions, please
-submit a patch to the Debian bug tracking system.</p>

+ <description><p>Det er lenge siden jeg har sett på den norske stavekontrollen, sist
+jeg skrev om temaet var i 2016, og i mellomtiden har nettstedet
+no.speling.org forsvunnet, og både git-depotet på Alioth og
+mailman-tjenesten som hadde epostlistene for oversettelser blitt lagt
+ned. Men bokmål og nynorsk trenger fortsatt stavekontroll, så etter
+et par purringer fra en som har lyst til å forbedre stavekontrollen
+har jeg endelig fått lagt ut ny offentlig kopi av git-depotet. Jeg
+valgte gitlab foran github.. Siste utgave av stavekontrollen kan
+hentes ned fra
+<a href="https://gitlab.com/norwegian-language-tools/spell-norwegian">https://gitlab.com/norwegian-language-tools/spell-norwegian</a>.
+Ingen ny versjon i denne omgang altså, bare et nytt sted å samle
+forbedringer til den frie norske stavekontrollen. :)

- <title>Fetching trusted timestamps using the rfc3161ng python module</title>

- <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Fetching_trusted_timestamps_using_the_rfc3161ng_python_module.html</guid>
- <pubDate>Mon, 8 Oct 2018 12:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
- <description><p>I have earlier covered the basics of trusted timestamping using the
-'openssl ts' client. See blog post for
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Public_Trusted_Timestamping_services_for_everyone.html">2014</a>,
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/syslog_trusted_timestamp___chain_of_trusted_timestamps_for_your_syslog.html">2016</a>
-and
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Idea_for_storing_trusted_timestamps_in_a_Noark_5_archive.html">2017</a>
-for those stories. But some times I want to integrate the timestamping
-in other code, and recently I needed to integrate it into Python.
-After searching a bit, I found
-<a href="https://dev.entrouvert.org/projects/python-rfc3161">the
-rfc3161 library</a> which seemed like a good fit, but I soon
-discovered it only worked for python version 2, and I needed something
-that work with python version 3. Luckily I next came across
-<a href="https://github.com/trbs/rfc3161ng/">the rfc3161ng library</a>,
-a fork of the original rfc3161 library. Not only is it working with
-python 3, it have fixed a few of the bugs in the original library, and
-it has an active maintainer. I decided to wrap it up and make it
-<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/python-rfc3161ng">available in
-Debian</a>, and a few days ago it entered Debian unstable and testing.</p>
-
-<p>Using the library is fairly straight forward. The only slightly
-problematic step is to fetch the required certificates to verify the
-timestamp. For some services it is straight forward, while for others
-I have not yet figured out how to do it. Here is a small standalone
-code example based on of the integration tests in the library code:</p>
-
-<pre>
-#!/usr/bin/python3
-
-"""
-
-Python 3 script demonstrating how to use the rfc3161ng module to
-get trusted timestamps.
-
-The license of this code is the same as the license of the rfc3161ng
-library, ie MIT/BSD.
-
-"""
-
-import os
-import pyasn1.codec.der
-import rfc3161ng
-import subprocess
-import tempfile
-import urllib.request
-
-def store(f, data):
- f.write(data)
- f.flush()
- f.seek(0)
-
-def fetch(url, f=None):
- response = urllib.request.urlopen(url)
- data = response.read()
- if f:
- store(f, data)
- return data
-
-def main():
- with tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile() as cert_f,\
- tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile() as ca_f,\
- tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile() as msg_f,\
- tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile() as tsr_f:
-
- # First fetch certificates used by service
- certificate_data = fetch('https://freetsa.org/files/tsa.crt', cert_f)
- ca_data_data = fetch('https://freetsa.org/files/cacert.pem', ca_f)
-
- # Then timestamp the message
- timestamper = \
- rfc3161ng.RemoteTimestamper('http://freetsa.org/tsr',
- certificate=certificate_data)
- data = b"Python forever!\n"
- tsr = timestamper(data=data, return_tsr=True)
-
- # Finally, convert message and response to something 'openssl ts' can verify
- store(msg_f, data)
- store(tsr_f, pyasn1.codec.der.encoder.encode(tsr))
- args = ["openssl", "ts", "-verify",
- "-data", msg_f.name,
- "-in", tsr_f.name,
- "-CAfile", ca_f.name,
- "-untrusted", cert_f.name]
- subprocess.check_call(args)
-
-if '__main__' == __name__:
- main()
-</pre>
-
-<p>The code fetches the required certificates, store them as temporary
-files, timestamp a simple message, store the message and timestamp to
-disk and ask 'openssl ts' to verify the timestamp. A timestamp is
-around 1.5 kiB in size, and should be fairly easy to store for future
-use.</p>

- <description><p>A few days, I rescued a Windows victim over to Debian. To try to
-rescue the remains, I helped set up automatic sync with Google Drive.
-I did not find any sensible Debian package handling this
-automatically, so I rebuild the grive2 source from
-<a href="http://www.webupd8.org/">the Ubuntu UPD8 PPA</a> to do the
-task and added a autostart desktop entry and a small shell script to
-run in the background while the user is logged in to do the sync.
-Here is a sketch of the setup for future reference.</p>
-
-<p>I first created <tt>~/googledrive</tt>, entered the directory and
-ran '<tt>grive -a</tt>' to authenticate the machine/user. Next, I
-created a autostart hook in <tt>~/.config/autostart/grive.desktop</tt>
-to start the sync when the user log in:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-[Desktop Entry]
-Name=Google drive autosync
-Type=Application
-Exec=/home/user/bin/grive-sync
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Finally, I wrote the <tt>~/bin/grive-sync</tt> script to sync
-~/googledrive/ with the files in Google Drive.</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-#!/bin/sh
-set -e
-cd ~/
-cleanup() {
- if [ "$syncpid" ] ; then
- kill $syncpid
- fi
-}
-trap cleanup EXIT INT QUIT
-/usr/lib/grive/grive-sync.sh listen googledrive 2>&1 | sed "s%^%$0:%" &
-syncpdi=$!
-while true; do
- if ! xhost >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
- echo "no DISPLAY, exiting as the user probably logged out"
- exit 1
- fi
- if [ ! -e /run/user/1000/grive-sync.sh_googledrive ] ; then
- /usr/lib/grive/grive-sync.sh sync googledrive
- fi
- sleep 300
-done 2>&1 | sed "s%^%$0:%"
-</pre></blockquote></p>

+ <description><p>Arbeidet med å lage et godt, fritt og åpent standardisert maskinelt
+grensesnitt for arkivering, med tilhørende fri
+programvareimplementasjon fortsetter. Jeg snakker om
+<a href="https://github.com/arkivverket/noark5-tjenestegrensesnitt-standard">Noark
+5 Tjenestegrensesnitt</a> og
+<a href="https://gitlab.com/OsloMet-ABI/nikita-noark5-core/">Nikita</a>.
+Siste nytt etter
+<a href="https://www.nuug.no/aktiviteter/20200127-noark-seminar/">seminaret
+for noen dager siden</a>, er vi i Nikita-prosjektet har fått beskjed
+fra Arkivverket at det blir satt ned en redaksjon for å videreutvikle
+spesifikasjonen. Redaksjonen består av Mona Danielsen og Anne Sofie
+Knutsen ved arkivverket, Thomas Sødring ved OsloMet, og meg selv fra
+NUUG. De to sistenevnte tar seg av de åpenbare forbedringene, mens
+hele redaksjonen diskuterer tvilstilfeller. Jeg håper dette vil bidra
+til at vi lykkes i å gjøre denne protokollspesifikasjonen så entydig
+og klar at den vil bidra til et velfungerende marked for
+arkivsystemer, og sikre at programmer som trenger å snakke med
+arkivsystemet kan snakke med enhver implementasjon av
+API-spesifikasjonen. Nikita er den første implementasjonen, men det
+bør blir flere.</p>
+
+<p>Det gjenstår riktig nok endel før vi er i mål, selv om svært mye
+allerede er på plass. Med innspill og forslag til forbedringer fra
+alle som vil ha et leverandøruavhengig og fullstendig
+datamaskinlesbart grensesnitt til arkivet, så tror jeg vi vil
+lykkes.</p>

+og artikkelen dermed er tilgjengelig for alle. Du finner den i
+<a href="https://www.arkivrad.no/sites/arkivrad/files/arkivrad_03_2019_nett.pdf">PDF-en
+til nummer 2019/3 på side 30-33</a>. Jeg håper leserne av
+tidsskriftet får lyst til å sjekke ut tjenestegrensesnittet og at
+artikkelen vil gjøre det enklere for flere å bidra til en enda bedre,
+klarere og mer entydig API-spesifikasjon. Det kan gjøre at
+<a href="https://gitlab.com/OsloMet-ABI/nikita-noark5-core/">arkivsystemet
+Nikita</a> kan bli enda bedre når spesifikasjonen forbedres.</p>

+ <description><p>En historie som har betydd endel for meg, og som jeg av og til
+tenker på når hverdagen tynger, ble så vidt jeg har klart å finne ut,
+skrevet av <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loren_Eiseley">Loren
+Eiseley</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Star_Thrower">i
+flere ulike varianter</a>. På norsk tror jeg den går under navnet
+«Gutten og sjøstjernen», og jeg fant en oversettelse av en utgave av den
+hos
+<a href="https://no.quora.com/Hva-er-din-favoritthistorie">Quora</a>.
+Fant også <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qClChUdlfI">en
+filmatisering</a>, men den versjonen jeg liker best fant jeg
+<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/56782.Loren_Eiseley">hos
+Goodreads</a>. Jeg oversatte den utgaven til norsk i går, og har lyst
+til å dele den med deg:
+
+<blockquote><p>Mens jeg tok en pause fra skrivingen og vandret på en
+øde strand ved daggry, så jeg en gutt i det fjerne bøye seg ned og
+kaste noe mens han vandret mot meg over den endeløse stranden. Da han
+kom nærmere, kunne jeg se at han kastet sjøstjerner, som var etterlatt
+i sanden av tidevannet, tilbake i havet. Da han var nær nok spurte jeg
+ham hvorfor han jobbet så hardt på denne merkelige oppgaven. Han sa at
+solen snart ville stå opp og tørke sjøstjernene slik at de ville
+dø.</p>
+
+<p>Jeg sa til ham at dette var helt meningsløst. Det var kilometer på
+kilometer med strand, og det lå sjøstjerner hele veien. En person
+alene kunne ikke gjøre noen forskjell. Han smilte da han plukket opp
+neste sjøstjerne. Mens han kastet den så langt ut i havet som han
+klarte sa han, «for denne gjør det en forskjell». Jeg droppet
+skrivingen og tilbrakte resten av morgenen med å kaste
+sjøstjerner.</p>
+
+<p>- Loren Eiseley</p>
+</blockquote>
+
+<p>Kanskje noe du også kan ha glede av å tenke på når ting virker
+håpløst?</p>
+
+<p>Teksten er gjengitt og oversatt basert på utgaven på Good Read,
+uten tillatelse fra noen andre enn meg selv. Jeg håper på tilgivelse,
+hvis det er et problem for noen, da det er gjort i beste mening. Hvis
+eventuell rettighetshaver tar kontakt vil jeg fjerne teksten og i
+stedet legge ut henvendelsen der teksten kreves fjernet.</p>

+ <description><p>Jeg hadde i dag gleden av å oppdage at en artikkel om
+<a href="https://gitlab.com/OsloMet-ABI/nikita-noark5-core/">arkivsystemet
+Nikita</a> som vi skrev i sommer, nå er publisert i
+<a href="http://www.arkheion.no/">Arkheion, fagtidsskrift for kommunial
+arkivsektor</a>. Du finner artikkelen på side 30-33 i nummer 2019/2,
+PDF kan lastes ned fra nettstedet til tidsskriftet. Kanskje
+publiseringen kan føre til at noen flere får øynene opp for verdien av
+et åpent standardisert API for arkivering og søk i arkivet.</p>
