Banksie

Whilst updating my Amazon ratings, I noticed that Iain [M.] Banks has a new book listed, cunningly titled "SF Novel".

Now that The Culture is dead (the fanzine that is), and alt.books.iain-banks isn't what it used to be, I have no idea what this book is about. Anybody know?

New Year

Happy New Year everyone!

Hopefully it will be a good one. New hard drive for the laptop coming soon, meaning far more space for hacking on cutting-edge GNOME. Getting married in July, to my wonderful fiancée Vicky. And maybe even the next release of Debian will be out in 2004, which will contain ~20 of the packages I maintain.

Glynn: yes, Counting Crows rock and August and Everything After was a wonderful album (one of my favourite albums), but they haven't been able to match it since.

NP: Parachutes, by Coldplay.
