Wow. That was a stage - the top riders clearly showed where the performance level lies. Armstrong and Basso with the best legs, Ullrich very strong and thus also a clear statement to Klöden and Vinokourov, who the captain is. But definitely not strong enough for Armstrong. Whether Basso can crack Armstrong I don't know either - today his helpers were clearly missing, Sastre and Julich just lack that last bit of strength.
But the absolute stars are Gerolsteiner. On the one hand, of course, the still superb placement of Leipheimer, their captain. But the showstopper was Georg Totschnig with his stage win. The first in the Tour for Gerolsteiner ever and also the first stage win in the Tour for Totschnig. I haven't seen a rider and sports director be so happy about a victory in a long time like Totschnig and Holczer. Great performance, big congratulations to both of them for that.
By the way, Gerolsteiner's Typo3 server (yes, Gerolsteiner uses open source) just died - could that perhaps be due to the stage win and the many curious visitors?
Foundations of Python Network Programming is a relatively new book about network programming with Python. It covers all possible aspects of network programming you can think of - quite impressive the first impression. I know most of the things already from somewhere, but so compact in one book it is still nice to read. Together with Dive Into Python I would see the two as the ideal pair to learn Python.
HsShellScript is a Haskell library that allows you to solve typical shell script problems with Haskell. So functions for controlling processes and accessing system information etc. Looks very nice, but unfortunately cannot be compiled on OS X due to missing mntent.h.
mod_haskell has unfortunately not been developed further for years - it offers an integration of Hugs and ghc into the Apache server.
PerlPad is a service for Mac OS X that allows you to execute Perl code in any Cocoa text window and collect the output, or send selected text through a Perl script.
Regular Expressions in Haskell is an implementation of regular expressions entirely in Haskell.
Web Authoring System Haskell (WASH) is a collection of Haskell libraries (more precisely DSLs - domain specific languages - in Haskell) for programming web applications. It includes CGI-style programming, HTML generation, mail handling, and database drivers for PostgreSQL.
