Quiet but busy

I haven't blogged in a long time, but strangely there has been a ton of stuff for me to blog about. I've just been very busy and need to get back into the habit.

For one, I am now working full-time on Funtoo-related endeavors (no longer with E*TRADE) - I've been spending my extra time catching up on much-needed geeky things behind the scenes, which I hope to be able to share with you soon.

For Metro, even though I haven't made an official release in a while, there have been a ton -- a TON -- of changes in the git repo. Fortunately, it still mostly works the same and the quick start guide should still mostly be applicable. There is still much to do with Metro, and my focus over the next month or so will be on the parser and its next evolution. I am removing *all* existing conditional logic (i.e. "[when ...]" and ["collect foo when ..."]) from Metro itself, and replacing it with something that should work quite a bit better and be a lot more powerful. A Metro without conditionals! Crazy, huh? Turns out we don't need them.

I'll try to post more here soon.
