IPv6
I thought it was time to move to IPv6. And I did:
robi@akari:~$ ping6 -c 1 ipv6.google.com
PING ipv6.google.com(2001:4860:0:1001::68) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 2001:4860:0:1001::68: icmp_seq=1 ttl=55 time=237 ms
--- ipv6.google.com ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 237.123/237.123/237.123/0.000 ms
I configured the router using this document: OpenWrt IPv6 howto.
No configuration were needed on the client side. We have linuces: Ubuntu 8.04 and Debian lenny, and they work out of the box.

For the records…
Put this into a cue file, and you’re done.
FILE ”BinFileName.bin” BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
And people, please… start using standard formats… and guess what iso stands for… 😉
Happy New Year
It’s happy, it’s new and it’s year. Otherwise it’s just like 2007.
Read Morevanyi.org reorganisation
Nothing seems to be happening around vanyi.org these days. On one hand I was busy with other stuff and on the other hand I was working in the background. As soon as I have some time I will reorganise vanyi.org as follows:
- My blog will be moved from (www.)vanyi.org to robert.vanyi.org
- The main page in its current form will cease to exist, a more static page will replace it with the following content:
- Short family history (similar to the current family history page)
- Links to homepages of Vanyis known to me (registration is open!). Small pictures with some data
- Links to other important (Vanyi related) pages
- The already existing genealogy.vanyi.org will be ported to a new wiki engine, and further family history entries will be hosted there
- I will create a syndicated blog on planet.vanyi.org for family members who have RSS enabled blogs. It is also open for registration.
- I don’t know what to do with the forum, but I would like to keep it.
Stay tuned.

I was very busy… again… 🙂
Just for the records: both of us have found jobs, we are software engineers. Nelli works at Nortel, and I work at Hewlett-Packard as a contractor employed by Multiflex Ltd. People often say that Java and C# is the future, C++ is dead, C++ is too high-level (compared to C), C++ is too low-level (compared to Java and C#), C++ programmers are not needed anymore, etc. Well, both of us work as C++ programmers, so the only thing I can say is 😛
