Busy...

Work's been kicing my ass for months now, so it's been quite a while since I've written. Just a quick update to my rather normal life:

I'm "polishing" my DICOM skills slowly.. it's an ugly-ass (protocol|standard), that's for sure. But it's certainly the most interesting job I've had in quite some time... Well besides the fact that I have to spend (waste?) some time each day (using|fixing) micrsoft-driven machines. Thank god the bulk of my work involves *NIX.

The keyserver database is somewhere around 1.9 million keys large now.. pretty impressive. Because this machine is also wwwkeys.(us).pgp.net, some days we get over 5000 requests for keys... Not bad! At this moment, I'm merging in a keyring dump from pgp.rediris.es.

I could rant and rave about the state of geopolitics at this juncture, but that'd fill up pages and pages with angry rhetoric and leave me pissed off.. So I wont! A certain relative of mine is welcome to come here and do that for me whenever he wants, heh! Let's just say that it's releiving to see so much protest against.. well you know what.

I hope things don't get too ugly around the globe in the coming months (well, uglier than they already are..)
