#0x37: I ain't slackin'

On the poolp.org side, work in progress and quite busy with contracters.

On the smtpd side, poolp's setup has gone through a bit of yacc cleanup mostly. I had tried to do some useful work in the maps and auth area, but I ran into the wall as I realized that jacekm@'s queue code no longer uses struct mxrelay preventing me from passing useful information from MTA to lookup process. I'm trying to figure out a way that would not involve very invasive changes and diverging too much from the OpenBSD tree but it looks like I won't be left with much choice and very soon my diffs will no longer apply to the OpenBSD tree.

My main goal right now is to get authentication backed by maps, be it for smtp or mta authentication. This would allow authentication of virtual users through a LDAP server and pave the way to hosting a fully-virtual mail service backed by no single system account.

The nbpg project hasn't seen a commit in weeks, I'm stuck with a deflate bug I have not sorted out yet. I must admit I was busy so I didn't investigate for more than a few hours, will try to get it fixed soon.

Finally, I started looking at Android ROMS a couple days ago and started working on my own ROM. Nothing very fancy at the moment, it is basically the latest official image with many packages that annoy me removed. I have some poolp related plans, I'll talk about them when they are a bit more real :-)
