  • gNewSense mirroring

  • Native IPv6 on AMIS

    I was happy to receive a native IPv6 /64 subnet from AMIS today. It is still in the testing phase, this means they aren’t offering it to all customers yet. A native IPv6 connection means, that I can now avoid using IPv6 tunnel brokers and access the world directly over the IPv6 stack.

  • gNewSense

    I was browsing around the page of Free Software Foundation, where I saw that they are promoting a fully Free software GNU/Linux distribution, called gNewSense. At this moment the distribution is based on Debian Lenny which uses 99% of compatible sources from the “main” section, which is Free software. They are excluding some programs which…

  • Native IPv6

    I received a native IPv6 subnet on one of my dedicated servers. It is now being used for hosting a freenode leaf server. I am still waiting for my home ISP provider AMIS to enable native IPv6, I hope that they will do it soon.

  • 1000 HE points

    Today I reached 1000 points on the IPv6 certification scheme, which positioned me on 39th place in IPv6 Hall of Fame. I still need to submit a series of ping6/traceroute6 results, to reach the final score, which is 1400. However all this data is trivial to the former IPv6 related topics, where you had to…

  • IPv6 Certificate

    I completed a series of tests to receive an IPv6 certificate issued by Hurricane Electric. Currently I have 800 points what rates me in the Guru level, I am slowly getting towards the maximum (1400) scoreboard. Each day, I need to resubmit a series of ping6/traceroute6/dig tests, to gain additional 5 points per day.

  • IPv6 enabled radio stream

    I have been checking the radio stream from my server for the last week, since Swissgroove radio allowed me to stream it. It is working fine, so I wanted to give them also an IPv6 enabled stream. I decided to go with OpenSourced Icecast platform, which has IPv6 support integrated. The stream is available on…

  • Sponsored Radio stream

Their musical genre is between jazz/funk/soul/rnb . If you have a chance tune in to my radio stream, paste this link to your radio client. The stream is hosted…

  • Project Gutenberg

    Today, I have read about the Project Gutenberg in Delo daily newspaper. It explains how Michael S. Hart started to contribute book translations to the project more than 30 years ago in the computer center, when the internet was only working on a few nodes. He is/was a visionary at that time and had a…
