I’ve mentionned it several time last year, I’ve been working on a big (no, huge) project that now have a website :

http://artofsequence.org

I took time to set this website to start looking for people for helping this open-source project. It’s also meant to help to describe what it is all about.

I’ll update news about this project on the website, not here. Feel free to give any feedback, they are all welcome! :)

After an OS upgrade my server just wasn’t booting again and I decided it was time to change it to something better AND take the opportunity to reorganize it in a clean and secure way. With the help of some advice from gilles (poolp.org admin), I now understand better how to setup and it feels really really good to use all the knowledge accumulated in playing with linux server stuff all those years.

Now I’m re-setting each one of my domains and online services and I just finished setting up this blog.

There are other news I’d like to share, about my projects mainly, and will share them in the coming weeks when the timing will be appropriate.

Sometimes, at my day-job, when waiting for the computer to process code sometimes for hours, I like to read technical articles, to keep my mind awake. Other times, my left brain makes my right brain dream and I don’t even realise I’m drawing some characters on paper. I guess my body feels the need for artistic expression and I’m forced to release some steam regularly while my mind does what I call “stand-alone brainstorm”.

Here are some of these recent drawings. Sorry if it’s not polished, it’s not meant to be.

Before you ask, I want to make something clear : I don’t smoke anything.

Now, here are some drawi…scribbles showing how I should NetRush look like in the end (without the interface). I’ve added some colors to help understand the global shapes :
