  24       <div class="date">28th February 2025</div>
  25       <div class="body"><p>Since my motivation boost in the beginning of the month caused me
  26 to wrap up a new release of
  27 <tt><a href="https://xiph.org/oggz/">liboggz</a></tt>, I have used the
  28 same boost to wrap up new editions of
  29 <tt><a href="https://xiph.org/fishsound/">libfishsound</a></tt>,
  30 <tt><a href="https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/liboggplay/">liboggplay</a></tt>
  31 and
  32 <tt><a href="https://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/OggKate">libkate</a></tt>
  33 too.  These have been tagged in upstream git, but not yet published on
  34 the Xiph download location.  I am waiting for someone with access to
  35 have time to move the tarballs there, I hope it will happen in a few
  36 days.  The same is the case for a minor update of liboggz too.</p>
  37
  38 <p>As I was looking at Xiph packages lacking updates, it occurred to
  39 me that there are packages in Debian that have not received a new
  40 upload in a long time.  Looking for a way to identify them, I came
  41 across the <tt>ltnu</tt> script from the
  42 <tt><a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/devscripts">devscripts</a></tt>
  43 package.  It can sort by last update, packages maintained by a single
  44 user/group, and is useful to figure out which packages a single
  45 maintainer should have a look at.  But I wanted a archive wide
  46 summary.  I lifted the <a href="https://udd.debian.org/">UDD</a> SQL
  47 query used by ltnu from the script and adjusted it slightly to end up
  48 with the following command:</p>
  49
  50 <pre>
  51 #!/bin/sh
  52 env PGPASSWORD=udd-mirror psql --host=udd-mirror.debian.net --user=udd-mirror udd --command="
  53 select source,
  54        max(version) as ver,
  55        max(date) as uploaded
  56 from upload_history
  57 where distribution='unstable' and
  58       source in (select source
  59                  from sources
  60                  where release='sid')
  61 group by source
  62 order by max(date) asc
  63 limit 50;"
  64 </pre>
  65
  66 <p>This will sort all source packages in Debian by upload date, and
  67 list the 50 oldest ones.  The end result is a list of packages I
  68 suspect could use some attention:</p>

 126 <p>So there are 8 packages last uploaded to unstable in 2011, 12
 127 packages in 2012 and 26 packages in 2013.  I suspect their maintainers
 128 need help and we should all offer our assistance.  I already contacted
 129 two of them and hope the rest of the Debian community will chip in to
 130 help too.  We should ensure any Debian specific patches are passed
 131 upstream if they still exist, that the package is brought up to speed
 132 with the latest Debian policy, as well as ensure the source can built
 133 with the current compiler set in Debian.</p>

 151       <div class="date">10th February 2025</div>
 152       <div class="body"><p>It is a while since I posted a summary of the free software and
 153 open culture activities and projects I have worked on.  Here is a
 154 quick summary of the major ones from last year.</p>
 155
 156 <p>I guess the biggest project of the year has been migrating orphaned
 157 packages in Debian without a version control system to have a git
 158 repository on salsa.debian.org.  When I started in April around 450
 159 the orphaned packages needed git.  I've since migrated around 250 of
 160 the packages to a salsa git repository, and around 40 packages were
 161 left when I took a break.  Not sure who did the around 160 conversions
 162 I was not involved in, but I am very glad I got some help on the
 163 project.  I stopped partly because some of the remaining packages
 164 needed more disk space to build than I have available on my
 165 development machine, and partly because some had a strange build setup
 166 I could not figure out.  I had a time budget of 20 minutes per
 167 package, if the package proved problematic and likely to take longer,
 168 I moved to another package.  Might continue later, if I manage to free
 169 up some disk space.</p>
 170
 171 <p>Another rather big project was the translation to Norwegian Bokmål
 172 and publishing of the first book ever published by a Sámi woman, the
 173 «<a href="http://www.hungry.com/~pere/publisher/#infoerlifellerdoed2024">Møter
 174 vi liv eller død?</a>» book by Elsa Laula, with a PD0 and CC-BY
 175 license.  I released it during the summer, and to my surprise it has
 176 already sold several copies.  As I suck at marketing, I did not expect
 177 to sell any.</p>
 178
 179 <p>A smaller, but more long term project (for more than 10 years now),
 180 and related to orphaned packages in Debian, is my project to ensure a
 181 simple way to install hardware related packages in Debian when the
 182 relevant hardware is present in a machine.  It made a fairly big
 183 advance forward last year, partly because I have been poking and
 184 begging package maintainers and upstream developers to include
 185 AppStream metadata XML in their packages.  I've also released a few
 186 new versions of the isenkram system with some robustness improvements.
 187 Today 127 packages in Debian provide such information, allowing
 188 <tt>isenkram-lookup</tt> to propose them.  Will keep pushing until the
 189 around 35 package names currently hard coded in the isenkram package
 190 are down to zero, so only information provided by individual packages
 191 are used for this feature.</p>
 192
 193 <p>As part of the work on AppStream, I have sponsored several packages
 194 into Debian where the maintainer wanted to fix the issue but lacked
 195 direct upload rights.  I've also sponsored a few other packages, when
 196 approached by the maintainer.</p>
 197
 198 <p>I would also like to mention two hardware related packages in
 199 particular where I have been involved, the megactl and mfi-util
 200 packages.  Both work with the hardware RAID systems in several Dell
 201 PowerEdge servers, and the first one is already available in Debian
 202 (and of course, proposed by isenkram when used on the appropriate Dell
 203 server), the other is waiting for NEW processing since this autumn.  I
 204 manage several such Dell servers and would like the tools needed to
 205 monitor and configure these RAID controllers to be available from
 206 within Debian out of the box.</p>
 207
 208 <p>Vaguely related to hardware support in Debian, I have also been
 209 trying to find ways to help out the Debian ROCm team, to improve the
 210 support in Debian for my artificial idiocy (AI) compute node.  So far
 211 only uploaded one package, helped test the initial packaging of
 212 llama.cpp and tried to figure out how to get good speech recognition
 213 like Whisper into Debian.<p>
 214
 215 <p>I am still involved in the LinuxCNC project, and organised a
 216 developer gathering in Norway last summer.  A new one is planned the
 217 summer of 2025.  I've also helped evaluate patches and uploaded new
 218 versions of LinuxCNC into Debian.</p>
 219
 220 <p>After a 10 years long break, we managed to get a new and improved
 221 upstream version of <tt>lsdvd</tt> released just before Christmas.  As
 222 I use it regularly to maintain my DVD archive, I was very happy to
 223 finally get out a version supporting DVDDiscID useful for uniquely
 224 identifying DVDs.  I am dreaming of a Internet service mapping DVD IDs
 225 to IMDB movie IDs, to make life as a DVD collector easier.</p>
 226
 227 <p>My involvement in Norwegian archive standardisation and the free
 228 software implementation of the vendor neutral Noark 5 API continued
 229 for the entire year.  I've been pushing patches into both the API and
 230 the test code for the API, participated in several editorial meetings
 231 regarding the Noark 5 Tjenestegrensesnitt specification, submitted
 232 several proposals for improvements for the same.  We also organised a
 233 small seminar for Noark 5 interested people, and is organising a new
 234 seminar in a month.</p>
 235
 236 <p>Part of the year was spent working on and coordinating a Norwegian
 237 Bokmål translation of the marvellous children's book
 238 «<a href="https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/">Ada and
 239 Zangemann<a>», which focus on the right to repair and control your own
 240 property, and the value of controlling the software on the devices you
 241 own.  The translation is mostly complete, and is now waiting for a
 242 transformation of the project and manuscript to use Docbook XML
 243 instead of a home made semi-text based format.  Great progress is
 244 being made and the new book build process is almost complete.</p>
 245
 246 <p>I have also been looking at how to companies in Norway can use free
 247 software to report their accounting summaries to the Norwegian
 248 government.  Several new regulations make it very hard for companies
 249 to do use free software for accounting, and I would like to change
 250 this.  Found a few drafts for opening up the reporting process, and
 251 have read up on some of the specifications, but nothing much is
 252 working yet.</p>
 253
 254 <p>These were just the top of the iceberg, but I guess this blog post
 255 is long enough now. If you would like to help with any of these
 256 projects, please get in touch, either directly on the project mailing
 257 lists and forums, or with me via email, IRC or Signal. :)</p>

 275       <div class="date"> 9th February 2025</div>
 276       <div class="body"><p>A little over a week ago, I noticed
 277 <a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/liboggz">the liboggz
 278 package</a> on my Debian dashboard had not had a new upstream release
 279 for a while.  A closer look showed that its last release, version
 280 1.1.1, happened in 2010.  A few patches had accumulated in the Debian
 281 package, and I even noticed that I had passed on these patches to
 282 upstream five years ago.  A handful crash bugs had been reported
 283 against the Debian package, and looking at the upstream repository I
 284 even found a few crash bugs reported there too.  To add insult to
 285 injury, I discovered that upstream had accumulated several fixes in the
 286 years between 2010 and now, and many of them had not made their way
 287 into the Debian package.  I decided enough was enough, and that a new
 288 upstream release was needed fixing these nasty crash bugs.  Luckily I
 289 am also a member of the Xiph team, aka upstream, and could actually go
 290 to work immediately to fix it.</p>
 291
 292 <p>I started by adding automatic build testing on
 293 <a href="https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/liboggz">the Xiph gitlab oggz
 294 instance</a>, to get a better idea of the state of affairs with the
 295 code base.  This exposed a few build problems, which I had to fix.  In
 296 parallel to this, I sent an email announcing my wish for a new release
 297 to every person who had committed to the upstream code base since
 298 2010, and asked for help doing a new release both on email and on the
 299 #xiph IRC channel.  Sadly only a fraction of their email providers
 300 accepted my email.  But Ralph Giles in the Xiph team came to the
 301 rescue and provided invaluable help to guide be through the release
 302 Xiph process.  While this was going on, I spent a few days tracking
 303 down the crash bugs with good help from
 304 <a href="https://www.valgrind.org/">valgrind</a>, and came up with
 305 patch proposals to get rid of at least these specific crash bugs.  The
 306 open issues also had to be checked.  Several of them proved to be
 307 fixed already, but a few I had to creat patches for.  I also checked
 308 out the Debian, Arch, Fedora, Suse and Gentoo packages to see if there
 309 were patches applied in these Linux distributions that should be
 310 passed upstream.  The end result was ready yesterday.  A new liboggz
 311 release, version 1.1.2, was tagged, wrapped up and published on the
 312 project page.  And today, the new release was uploaded into
 313 Debian.</p>
 314
 315 <p>You are probably by now curious on what actually changed in the
 316 library.  I guess the most interesting new feature was support for
 317 Opus and VP8.  Almost all other changes were stability or
 318 documentation fixes.  The rest were related to the gitlab continuous
 319 integration testing.  All in all, this was really a minor update,
 320 hence the version bump only from 1.1.1 to to 1.1.2, but it was long
 321 overdue and I am very happy that it is out the door.</p>
 322
 323 <p>One change proposed upstream was not included this time, as it
 324 extended the API and changed some of the existing library methods, and
 325 thus require a major SONAME bump and possibly code changes in every
 326 program using the library.  As I am not that familiar with the code
 327 base, I am unsure if I am the right person to evaluate the change.
 328 Perhaps later.</p>
 329
 330 <p>Since the release was tagged, a few minor fixes has been committed
 331 upstream already: automatic testing the cross building to Windows, and
 332 documentation updates linking to the correct project page.  If a
 333 important issue is discovered with this release, I guess a new release
 334 might happen soon including the minor fixes.  If not, perhaps they can
 335 wait fifteen years. :)</p>
 336
 337 <p>I would like to send a big thank you to everyone that helped make
 338 this release happen, from the people adding fixes upstream over the
 339 course of fifteen years, to the ones reporting crash bugs, other bugs
 340 and those maintaining the package in various Linux distributions.
 341 Thank you very much for your time and interest.</p>

 387       <div class="date">19th January 2025</div>
 388       <div class="body"><p>For some years now, I have been working on a automatic hardware
 389 based package recommendation system for Debian and other Linux
 390 distributions.  The isenkram system I started on back in 2013 now
 391 consist of two subsystems, one locating firmware files using the
 392 information provided by apt-file, and one matching hardware to
 393 packages using information provided by AppStream.  The former is very
 394 similar to the mechanism implemented in debian-installer to pick the
 395 right firmware packages to install. This post is about the latter
 396 system.  Thanks to steady progress and good help from both other
 397 Debian and upstream developers, I am happy to report that
 398 <a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/isenkram">the Isenkram
 399 system</a> now are able to recommend 121 packages using information
 400 provided via
 401 <a href="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Distributions/AppStream/">AppStream</a>.</p>
 402
 403 <p>The mapping is done using modalias information provided by the
 404 kernel, the same information used by udev when creating device files,
 405 and the kernel when deciding which kernel modules to load.  To get all
 406 the modalias identifiers relevant for your machine, you can run the
 407 following command on the command line:</p>
 408
 409 <pre>
 410 find /sys/devices -name modalias -print0 | xargs -0 sort -u
 411 </pre>
 412
 413 <p>The modalias identifiers can look something like this:</p>
 414
 415 <pre>

 425 <p>The entries above are a selection of the complete set available on
 426 a Dell PowerEdge R730 machine I have access to, to give an idea about
 427 the various styles of hardware identifiers presented in the modalias
 428 format.  When looking up relevant packages in a Debian Testing
 429 installation on the same R730, I get this list of packages
 430 proposed:</p>
 431
 432 <pre>
 433 % sudo isenkram-lookup
 434 firmware-bnx2x
 435 firmware-nvidia-graphics
 436 firmware-qlogic
 437 megactl
 438 wsl
 439 %
 440 </pre>
 441
 442 <p>The list consist of firmware packages requested by kernel modules,
 443 as well packages with program to get the status from the RAID
 444 controller and to maintain the LAN console.  When the edac-utils
 445 package providing tools to check the ECC RAM status will enter testing
 446 in a few days, it will also show up as a proposal from isenkram.  In
 447 addition, once the mfiutil package we uploaded in October get past the
 448 NEW processing, it will also propose a tool to configure the RAID
 449 controller.</p>
 450
 451 <p>Another example is the trusty old Lenovo Thinkpad X230, which have
 452 hardware handled by several packages in the archive.  This is running
 453 on Debian Stable:</p>
 454
 455 <pre>

 470 tlp
 471 tp-smapi-dkms
 472 tpb
 473 %
 474 </pre>
 475
 476 <p>Here there proposal consist of software to handle the camera,
 477 bluetooth, network card, wifi card, GPU, fan, fingerprint reader and
 478 acceleration sensor on the machine.</p>

 510
 511 <p>In addition to these, there are several
 512 <a href="https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/bts-usertags.cgi?user=pere%40hungry.com&tag=appstream-modalias">with
 513 patches pending in the Debian bug tracking system</a>, and even more
 514 where no-one wrote patches yet.  Good candiates for the latter are
 515 packages
 516 <a href="https://udd.debian.org/lintian-tag.cgi?tag=appstream-metadata-missing-modalias-provide">with
 517 udev rules but no AppStream hardware information</a>.</p>
 518
 519 <p>The isenkram system consist of two packages, isenkram-cli with the
 520 command line tools, and isenkram with a GUI background process.  The
 521 latter will listen for dbus events from udev emitted when new hardware
 522 become available (like when inserting a USB dongle or discovering a
 523 new bluetooth device), look up the modalias entry for this piece of
 524 hardware in AppStream (and a hard coded list of mappings from isenkram
 525 - currently working hard to move this list to AppStream), and pop up a
 526 dialog proposing to install any not already installed packages
 527 supporting this hardware.  It work very well today when inserting the
 528 LEGO Mindstorms RCX, NXT and EV3 controllers. :) If you want to make
 529 sure more hardware related packages get recommended, please help out
 530 fixing the remaining packages in Debian to provide AppStream metadata
 531 with hardware mappings.</p>

 593 <p>It is nice to see that the same number of packages now support PNG
 594 and JPEG.  Last time JPEG had more support than PNG.  Most of the MIME
 595 types are known to me, but the 'audio/x-scpls' one I have no idea what
 596 represent, except it being an audio format.  To find the packages
 597 claiming support for this format, the appstreamcli command from the
 598 appstream package can be used:

 651 packages do not support STL.  Perhaps just missing package metadata?
 652 Luckily the amount of package metadata in Debian is getting better,
 653 and hopefully this way of locating relevant packages for any file
 654 format will be the preferred one soon.

 673       <div class="body"><p><a href="https://linuxcnc.org/">The LinuxCNC project</a> is
 674 trotting along.  And I believe this great software system for
 675 numerical control of machines such as milling machines, lathes, plasma
 676 cutters, routers, cutting machines, robots and hexapods, would do even
 677 better with more in-person developer gatherings, so we plan to
 678 organise such gathering this summer too.</p>
 679
 680 <p>This year we would like to invite to a small LinuxCNC and free
 681 software fabrication workshop/gathering in Norway this summer for the
 682 weekend starting July 4th 2025.  New this year is the slightly larger
 683 scope, and we invite people also outside the LinuxCNC community to
 684 join.  As earlier, we suggest to organize it as an
 685 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference">unconference</a>,
 686 where the participants create the program upon arrival.</p>
 687
 688 <p>The location is a metal workshop 15 minutes drive away from to the
 689 Gardermoen airport (OSL), where there is a lot of space and a hotel only
 690 5 minutes away by car. We plan to fire up the barbeque in the evenings.</p>
 691
 692 <p>Please let us know if you would like to join.  We track the list of
 693 participants on <a href="https://pad.efn.no/p/linuxcnc-2025-norway">a
 694 simple pad</a>, please add yourself there if you are interested in joining.</p>
 695
 696 <p><a href="https://www.nuugfoundation.no/">The NUUG Foundation</a> has on
 697 our request offered to handle any money involved with this gathering,
 698 in other words holding any sponsor funds and paying any bills.
 699 NUUG Foundation is a spinnoff from the NUUG member organisation here
 700 in Norway with long ties to the free software and open standards
 701 communities.</p>
 702
 703 <p>As usual we hope to find sponsors to pay for food, lodging and travel.</p>

 721       <div class="date">21st December 2024</div>
 722       <div class="body"><p>The rumors of the death of
 723 <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/lsdvd/">the lsdvd project</a>
 724 is slightly exaggerated.  And the last few months, we have been
 725 working on fixing and improving it, culminating in a new release last
 726 night.  This is the list of changes in the new 0.18 release, as
 727 <a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/mailman/message/59108028/">announced
 728 on the project mailing list</a>:</p>
 729
 730 <ul>
 731
 732   <li>Simplified autoconf setup, dropped --enable-debug option.</li>
 733   <li>Improved video resolution reporting (<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/patches/8/">Fixes #8</a>).</li>
 734   <li>Applied patches fetched from BSDs (<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/patches/7/">Fixes #7</a>).</li>
 735   <li>Corrected Perl output (<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/patches/1/">Fixes #1</a>).</li>
 736   <li>Adjusted Pan and Scan entries to produce valid XML.</li>
 737   <li>Changed --help output from stderr to stdout.</li>
 738   <li>Corrected aspect ratio and audio format formatting.</li>
 739   <li>Avoid segfault when hitting a NULL pointer in the IFO structure.</li>
 740   <li>Change build rules to supress compiler flags, to make it easier to
 741    spot warnings.</li>
 742   <li>Set default DVD device based on OS (Linux, *BSD, Darwin)</li>
 743   <li>Added libdvdread DVDDiscID to output.</li>
 744   <li>Corrected typo in longest track value in XML format.</li>
 745   <li>Switched XML output to use libxml to avoid string encoding issues.</li>
 746   <li>Added simple build time test suite.</li>
 747   <li>Cleaned up language code handling and adding missing mapping for
 748    language codes 'nb' and 'nn'.</li>
 749   <li>Added JSON output support using -Oj.</li>
 750 </ul>
 751
 752 <p>The most exciting news to me is easy access to the DVDDiscID, which
 753 make it a lot easier to identify DVD duplicates across a large
 754 collection of DVDs.  During testing it has proved to be very effective
 755 ad identifying when DVDs in a DVD box (say all Star Wars movies) is
 756 identical to DVDs sold individually (like the same Star Wars movies
 757 packaged individually).</p>
 758
 759 <p>Because none of the current developers got access to do tarball
 760 releases on Sourceforge any more, the release is only available as
 761 <a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/lsdvd/git/ci/0.18/tree/">a git
 762 tag</a> in the repository.  Lets hope it do not take ten years for the
 763 next release.  The project are discussing to move away from
 764 Sourceforge, but it has not yet concluded.</p>

 782       <div class="date">11th July 2024</div>
 783       <div class="body"><p><a href="http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Time_to_move_orphaned_Debian_packages_to_git.html">In
 784 April</a>, I started migrating orphaned Debian packages without any
 785 version control system listed in debian/control to git.  This morning,
 786 my Debian QA page finally reached 200 QA packages migrated.  In
 787 reality there are a few more, as the packages uploaded by someone else
 788 after my initial upload have disappeared from my QA uploads list.  As
 789 I am running out of steam and will most likely focus on other parts of
 790 Debian moving forward, I hope someone else will find time to continue
 791 the migration to bring the number of orphaned packages without any
 792 version control system down to zero.  Here is the updated recipe if
 793 someone want to help out.</p>
 794
 795 <p>To locate packages to work on, the following one-liner can be used:</p>
 796
 797 <blockquote><pre>
 798 PGPASSWORD="udd-mirror" psql --port=5432 --host=udd-mirror.debian.net \
 799   --username=udd-mirror udd -c "select source from sources \
 800    where release = 'sid' and (vcs_url ilike '%anonscm.debian.org%' \
 801    OR vcs_browser ilike '%anonscm.debian.org%' or vcs_url IS NULL \
 802    OR vcs_browser IS NULL) AND maintainer ilike '%packages@qa.debian.org%' \
 803    order by random() limit 10;"
 804 </pre></blockquote>
 805
 806 <p>Pick a random package from the list and run the latest edition of
 807 the script
 808 <tt><a href="http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/images/2024-07-11-debian-snap-to-salsa.sh">debian-snap-to-salsa</a></tt>
 809 with the package name as the argument to prepare a git repository with
 810 the existing packaging.  This will download old Debian packages from
 811 <tt>snapshot.debian.org</tt>.  Note that very recent uploads will not
 812 be included, so check out the package on <tt>tracker.debian.org</tt>.
 813 Next, run <tt>gbp buildpackage --git-ignore-new</tt> to verify that
 814 the package build as it should, and then visit
 815 <a href="https://salsa.debian.org/debian/">https://salsa.debian.org/debian/</a>
 816 and make sure there is not already a git repository for the package
 817 there.  I also did <tt>git log -p debian/control</tt> and look for vcs
 818 entries to check if the package used to have a git repository on
 819 Alioth, and see if it can be a useful starting point moving forward.
 820 If all this check out, I created a new gitlab project below the Debian
 821 group on salsa, push the package source there and upload a new version.
 822 I tend to also ensure build hardening is enabled, if it prove to be
 823 easy, and check if I can easily fix any lintian issues or bug reports.
 824 If the process took more than 20 minutes, I dropped it and moved on to
 825 another package.</p>
 826
 827 <p>If I found patches in debian/patches/ that were not yet passed
 828 upstream, I would send an email to make sure upstream know about them.
 829 This has proved to be a valuable step, and caused several new releases
 830 for software that initially appeared abandoned. :)</p>

 848       <div class="date">10th July 2024</div>
 849       <div class="body"><p>The Norwegian <a href="https://linuxcnc.org/">The LinuxCNC</a>
 850 developer gathering 2024 is over.  It was a great and productive
 851 weekend, and I am sad that it is over.</p>
 852
 853 <p>Regular readers probably still remember what LinuxCNC is, but her
 854 is a quick summary for those that forgot?  LinuxCNC is a free software
 855 system for numerical control of machines such as milling machines,
 856 lathes, plasma cutters, routers, cutting machines, robots and
 857 hexapods.  It eats G-code and produce motor movement and other changes
 858 to the physical world, while reading sensor input.</p>
 859
 860 <p>I am not quite sure about the total head count, as not all people
 861 were present at the gathering the entire weekend, but I believe it was
 862 close to 10 people showing their faces at the gathering.  The "hard
 863 core" of the group, who stayed the entire weekend, were two from
 864 Norway, two from Germany and one from England.  I am happy with the
 865 outcome from the gathering.  We managed to wrap up a new stable
 866 LinuxCNC release 2.9.3 and even tested it on real hardware within
 867 minutes of the release.  The release notes for 2.9.3 are still being
 868 written, but should show up on on the project site in the next few
 869 days.  We managed to go through around twenty pull requests and merge
 870 then into either the stable release (2.9) or the development branch
 871 (master).  There are still around thirty pull requests left to
 872 process, so we are not out of work yet.  We even managed to
 873 fix/improve a slightly worn lathe, and experiment with running a
 874 mechanical clock using G-code.</p>
 875
 876 <p>The evening barbeque worked well both on Saturday and Sunday.  It
 877 is quite fun to light up a charcoal grill using compressed air.  Sadly
 878 the weather was not the best, so we stayed indoors most of the
 879 time.</p>
 880
 881 <p>This gathering was made possible partly with sponsoring from both
 882 <a href="https://www.redpill-linpro.com/">Redpill Linpro</a>,
 883 <a href="https://debian.org/">Debian</a> and
 884 <a href="https://nuugfoundation.no/">NUUG Foundation</a>, and we are
 885 most grateful for the support.  I would also like to thank the local
 886 school for lending us some furniture, and of course the rest of the
 887 members of the organizers team, Asle and Bosse, for their countless
 888 contributions.  The gathering was such success that we want to do it
 889 again next year.</p>
 890
 891 <p>We plan to organize the next Norwegian LinuxCNC developer gathering
 892 at the end of June next year, the weekend Friday 27th to Sunday 29th
 893 of June 2025.  I recommend you reserve the dates on your calendar
 894 today.  Other related communities are also welcome to join in, for
 895 example those working on systems like FreeCAD and opencamlib, as I am
 896 sure we have much in common and sharing experiences would be very
 897 useful to all involved.  We are of course looking for sponsors for
 898 this gathering already.  The total budget for this gathering was
 899 around NOK 25.000 (around EUR 2.300), so our needs are quite modest.
 900 Perhaps a machine or tools company would like to help out the free
 901 software manufacturing community by sponsoring food, lodging and
 902 transport for such gathering?</p>
