		<title>Why Oracle&#8217;s rebranding failed (at least for Windows)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is this bug filed against Eclipse: #319514

Photo by James JordanAt first it looks like a stupid thing for Eclipse to look at a property defined in the java.exe file to determine the vendor. A lot of people are currently complaining that Eclipse should use the java.vendor and java.vm.vendor properties available from within the running [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mailsystem upgrade pending</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Sunday, August 22nd 2010 there will be a outage of the mailsystem from 13:00 to 17:00. The reason is the installation of a new SMTP system. I &#8216;am migrating from Courier-MTA to Exim4, ultimately bringing some new features to the mail system like Sieve, greylisting and two-stage-spamassassin-checks.
Downtime is intended to be kept at a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Large FreeDOS boot image</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wanted to upgrade the BIOS of my desktop at work which is a Dell OptiPlex 960. Dell provides some minor help on flashing a new BIOS version under GNU/Linux but as of today it&#8217;s outdated and unusable. Sadly they do not provide images for use with flashrom either, so one is stuck with their [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sieve of Stoffel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is a guy named Felix Stoffel somewhere in Switzerland who calls himself a &#8220;communications analysts&#8221; and now he released a press text on primes and their determinism. The headline sounds great:
Primes finally completely defined
(translation by Google)

Photo by mainblancheThe text is currently only available in German but after reading it, it turned out that he [...]]]></description>

		<title>Using SSSD for single-sign-on</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have the need to work on some of my systems with my LDAP/Kerberos5 user while not being connected to any network. By now I have managed to get around this by using pam-ccreds and nss-db which would locally cache user credentials.
Now there&#8217;s a new approach to this whole situation: SSSD, a project introduced by [...]]]></description>

		<title>Several SSl certificates on one IP with Apache</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For years there has been the problem with SSL/HTTPS requiring a separate IP per X.509 certificate. Almost all webservers serving unencrypted plain HTTP/1.1 support a mechanism called name-based virtual hosts which enables a theroeticaly unlimited number of different doamins on on IP. This was not the cast for HTTPS since SNI arrived.
Now it was the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The day Germany went offline</title>
		<description><![CDATA[DENIC messed up their DNS servers today rendering most of the domains in .de unreachable. In technical terms requests to their servers either timed out or returned a NXDOMAIN answer, which states that the domain does not exists.
Kristian Köhntopp came up with the following URL to the DENIC homepage:
