A guy in front of me editing reST. See the nested lists? They're indented only one character, and Docutils doesn't complain. I notice this is a usability problem in Docutils, add a to-do list entry, and check it in. Cool.

Gathering in the Mesquite room in the evening, coding and talking about lots of interesting stuff. The guy on the floor is Duncan McGreggor, one of my roommates.

I talk with Paul McGuire about PyParsing, which has a a lot of syntactic sugar (nice sugar, not bad sugar) and looks really useful.

I talk with Martin Blais about all kinds of technical stuff; we're using mostly the same software, it seems. Highly interesting. And he's a fascinating guy, really.
