I’ve heard that they are supporting Python only, just at first. I think they plan on supporting other languages like PHP and Ruby. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

[…] A few weeks back, eBay delivered a 1960’s typewriter to me. Finally, last night, I sat down to write.

I’ll rename that directory to autofs_home. Just one more entry for my “Leopard hacks” documentation.
