Subject: Deine Bewerbung f??r den Prototype Fund - Runde 15
Liebe*r Bewerber*in,
der Auswahlprozess der 15. Runde des Prototype Fund wurde mit der
Jurysitzung nun abgeschlossen und wir k??nnen dir die Entscheidung
mitteilen: Leider geh??rt dein Projekt nicht zu den zur F??rderung
ausgew??hlten Projekten.
...
It doesn't really phase me though, right now I'm feeling really good
I've been doing a lot of self-help therapy such as meditation, and I'm not
letting it destroy me.
So I'm going to figure out a rough outline of TODO for next year for 1.9.
Perhaps I can lack getting some features in this year and work on them
next year.

Release pushed to the 22nd of December
November 27th, 2023
There is too much going on in my life which prevented me from coding. So
I'm gonna buy some time by moving the release to the 22nd of december. This
is a perfect date as it coincides with the december solstice (long nights!).
And it's three days before christmas day. So it's a busy december for me.
Lately I have been thinking about what I want to finish in delphinusdnsd, but
have been doing more personal healing like meditation and exercise (walking).
I hope I can bend my energy around doing more work this year :-). Also if
things don't work out in december, there is always a new years release window
perhaps. We did this in the past, nothing is static. As long as we get our
plans done by mid winter.

Oops
November 08th, 2023
I noticed I had another website misconfigured and IP's misconfigured on
httpd. It would have given wrong results for the past two days. Sorry.

Release of 1.8 moves to the 8th of December
November 3rd, 2023
I've been invited to an open dialogue with Hubertus Heil the German Minister
of Employment and Social Issues, on December 5th. I do plan to attend there
even though it is a lengthy conference on that day. The release for
delphinusdnsd, thus, is delayed by two days to the 8th of December which is
a Friday. Sorry if this causes any inconveniences.

Information is power, delphinusdnsd stays under RADAR
October 21st, 2023
I submitted an article to wikipedia and it was not accepted. This is the
reality. I intended to make it well known in december for the 1.8 release
but like I told some buddies... I'll probably have to buy advertising to
get the word out. Here was the
draft at wikipedia.
It just seems backwards that an Open Source project is not allowed on an
idealistic open source dictionary. Well I'm going closed source for a bit
anyhow. Should we open our own dictionaries?

A softer ratelimit violation refusal
October 20th, 2023
Today I wrote code to send a truncate reply (size is as much as question),
on UDP when a ratelimit is in effect. I'm forcing these to TCP instead of
just dropping. It will be less energy intensive on the resolvers part if
these are legitimate packets. If unlegitimate packets I do not believe
a TCP query will be done. Also someone being a reflection target will be
able to discern what is happening by seeing a truncate reply after a large
payload set of replies.

CERT RR support
October 20th, 2023
Yesterday I checked in CERT RR support. One down, two RR's to go and I
fulfilled this weeks code. I will probably code today as I have some more
ideas.

7 weeks until 1.8 release
October 16th, 2023
There is roughly 7 weeks left in the development cycle. I have plans to do
about 1 feature per week on average so there is 7 more things to come.
I'm currently working on CERT RR, but there is 2 more RR's that will make it
before release time. So there is 4 more things that I could be adding or
improving.
I'm also patiently waiting out the jury on the prototypefund
whether I'll get funding for TKEY and DNS Updates next year. The decision
will be made in early december 2023, so I'll know more around release time
of 1.8. Let's pretend they fund me 19K EUR for the period between march and
october 2024, I would be more than happy with that. I also know what I'll
buy with some of the money that i don't need to live. It will be a tesla
powerwall for my apartment in order to participate in the green revolution
that's partaking in Germany. If everything works out, I'll have the tesla
powerwall in mid september 2024.
My apartment is on the north side of my building so I don't get enough sunlight
for installing a balcony kraftwerk (powerplant). But using electricity wisely
for periods when there is a lot of solar electricity makes societal sense.
It would offload the grid and I'd pay the investment off in around 10 years by
means of savings. Coupled with a electricity provider like "tibber.com" for
example. Even if i don't get funding I'm gonna try to persue this for next
year. It would rock!
So that's the plans.

Caught up with sysadmin stuff
October 10th, 2023
The raspberry pi 4b is on my desk and the starfive visionfive 2 is my router.
This is what I wanted since summer. Unfortunately I'm sorta 10 days behind
where I wanted to be. I have some uncommitted code that I need to finish
and then at least we have 1 more RR. It's the CERT RR. I'll probably start
with that again tomorrow afternoon as I have some stuff to do in the morning.
I'm looking forward to the energy savings with this setup too.

Ed448 algorithm 16 support will not be this year
October 3rd, 2023
On August 31st, 2023 libressl released
libressl 3.8.1.
Unfortunately my hopes that they include Ed448 algorithms weren't implemented.
So for 2024 there won't be an algorithm 16. Maybe next year for the 2025
release (1.9.x). Now I tried bribing OpenBSD a little by pledging money, which
I've paid, but they don't work like that. Too bad I already overpaid it by
55 EUR otherwise I wouldn't pay that pledge. :P. One can only hope for next
year.
