n2n package improved

Root.cz recently ran an article (in Czech) about the n2n virtual private network sofware, an open alternative to Hamachi. I intend to use it to cross the NAT in my mom's DSL modem so that I can connect to her computer with ssh and VNC.
Thanks to happyman_eric and Grief, openSUSE Build Service already contained a package. I have made an improved version, adding an init script and a sysconfig file. Get the sources in my home project, or the binaries.

A Minimal Build Service OSC Plugin

I am trying to make OBS cooperate with my old release scripts*. So far I have this minimal plugin for osc to share:

$ mkdir ~/.osc-plugins
$ cd $_
$ cat > releasecheck.py <<EOF
def do_releasecheck(self, subcmd):
   print "Release early, release often."
EOF
$ osc releasecheck
Release early, release often.

*) They are not released, bad me; but they rely on the internal directory layout anyway.

Medoosa in OBS

Medoosa is a documentation tool for C++ that can produce UML class diagrams including generalizations and associations. Corrections can be made interactively in a diagram editor (Dia) and are fed back into the source as Javadoc-style comments. At this time, the layout must still be done by hand. Some code is already present to produce the layout with Graphviz.

I wrote it for my master's thesis at the Charles University back in 2001 and it has been since then quietly sitting at SourceForge. Today I have rebuilt it in the openSUSE Build Service: Medoosa, CcDoc-0.7a (required).

iogrind in openSUSE Build Service

iogrind is Michael Meeks' I/O profiler and visualizer. I wanted to see if it can help me with improving YaST performance, and I was surprised to find that there are no RPMs.

Well now there are: iogrind in openSUSE Build Service. The packaging is very crude for now, but it appears to work. Now I have to make some sense of the tool :-)
