answers replies to queries rather differently depending on where
they come from (apparently) - some people just get ECONNRESET almost
immediately (perhaps a firewall issue). Of course, wget works from
everywhere - here is the query it does:
GET /~michael/blog/index.atom HTTP/1.0 User-Agent: Wget/1.11.1 Accept: */* Host: www.gnome.org Connection: Keep-Alivevs. the query the uber-powerful (etc.) feedparser code does (apparently due to some fun charset love:
GET /~michael/blog/index.atom HTTP/1.0 Host: www.gnome.org A-im: feed Accept-encoding: gzip, deflate Accept: application/atom+xml,application/rdf+xml,application/rss+xml,application/x-netcdf,application/xml;q=0.9,text/xml;q=0.2,*/*;q=0.1 User-agent: Planet go-oo +http://planet.go-oo.org/ Planet/2.0 +http://www.planetplanet.org UniversalFeedParser/4.1 +http://feedparser.org/Presumably the latter looks like a DDOS attack, but only from some IPs (perhaps go-oo.org has a dodgy 2nd hand Russian-Mafia-style IP address).
My content in this blog and associated images / data under

and data/
directories are (usually)
created by me and (unless obviously labelled otherwise) are licensed under
the public domain, and/or if that doesn't float your boat a CC0
license. I encourage linking back (of course) to help people decide for
themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE, Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International), or anyone else. It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy. Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences or fun.
