AIM culture and interruptions
I have a failrly large buddy list now, both from Google chat and AIM. Most
people use AIM because it's...owned by AOL? I don't really know. but anyway, I
do too and I use it for a lot of work related discussion. I've noticed a
particular type of person who appears to have some kind of "online
notification" or "buddy pounce" feature to their AIM client because every
single time I leave "away" status or come online, within moments I get a "hey"
or a "yo". I like talking to these people but I find it extremely odd that I
come to expect a feeling of hesitation when I open my IM client, thinking to
myself, "do I really want to pay attention to this person right this moment,
because I will have to."

Packaging Asterisk for Debian
Building sarge backports from sid for asterisk was easy:
echo "deb http://ash.97montrose.org/packages/ binary/" >>
/etc/apt/sources.list
However, finding
MySQL
support was not.
I'll be building a backport of asterisk-addons 1.2.1 for
sarge soon. I've built a .deb for asterisk-addons-1.2.1. It's in the
repo. It appears no one else has done this very publicly. Maybe I'll get in
trouble with the man?
