Nautilus brings in newness and nerdity!

I have been handed over the baton of Nautilus and Gnome-VFS for Novell Linux Desktop (NLD). Yes!!! it feels good and I am simply loving it. I have begun my long journey with the small step of reading the RFC 959 towards fixing some issue in nautilus' ftp behaviour. Earlier, I was giving my love to audio/video stuff in NLD. Whenever I would get nostalgic, I can always fix nautilus-media problems and pacify my multimedia itch. So, much for the roadmap. No, wait..I also need to get back to tending my baby. She is hardly 3 months old and I am sure she needs lots of love from her papa. She is no one else but my Gnome Lockdown tool. She is growing well, I know.
Weekend whizzed past, way too fast. I think slashdot had a story about how the recent earthquake actually shortened the day (though only by a few micro-seconds), apart from telling us how capable a tsunami is in wreaking havoc.
Alas, Australian Open is over and none of my favourites could finally win the trophy. Though, they did play remarkably well. Sharapova and Sania, for those who would like to know the names.
Well, well, well, last but not the least, I am still waiting for my to-be lifeline, my new laptop! I am sure it would bring in lots of joy and freedom, in my world of hacking open-source software.
Have a nice week!!
