Took the first week in January as vacation. That leaves 29 days from my 2007 total; I still haven't added my 2008 days.

I was on lates Jan 2 & 3
IN response to a question from the English department, I've figured out how to get Fetch to show system files.
In Fetch 4 for Mac OS X, by default the GUI does not show any files that begin with the . character, for example .htaccess.
To make those files appear:
- Choose Fetch - Preferences
- Select the Misc tab
- Click the Obscure Options button
- In the list that appears, check "Send list -al to Unix"
- Save changes
- Restart Fetch.
This change also causes the . and .. folder items to become visible.

Now that the dust has settled on the migration of unix.uvic.ca from unix6 to unix7 I thought I'd try creating a connection to grs and setting an administrator on it again, but got the same error message. The helpdesk told me to check permissions, which were ok.
Three days between Christmas and New Year's.
Took the 24th off.
Christmas week payback of hours.

Installed the new NetBeans 6.0 and tested my current projects with it. Seems fine -- several improvements over 5.5.1.
Incorporated a minor tweak to the way output filenames are configured in the Batch window, making it easier to preserve the original file extension, as well as incorporating updates to the Preferences dialog box arising out of the IMT project. Updated documentation and created a new release.
Paolo C. provided an updated Italian interface file over the weekend, so I've rebuilt the installer to include it. No version change.
