Yes, not so nice, but at least it has given me the time to work out how to
integrate Python correctly using Oops (classes and such). I'm quite pleased
about how it is working out. If all goes well, I'll send a status report on
Python in about a week to the devel list.

Ooo...not good. Did they send it trackable (I.e. FedEx, UPS, etc), or are we talking freight that has no way of being tracked? j- k- On Friday 15 April 2005 09:06, Alan Brown wrote: > On Fri, 15 Apr 2005, Joshua Kugler wrote: > > Is he willing to sell?

How about this hardware then: http://www.ifm.liu.se/~peter/bakis The robot is a Sun StorEdge L11000 (a badge-engineered ATL P3000) with 6 DLT7000 (can take up to 14) drives and 326+12 tape slots. It weights in at around 1300 pounds (591kg) :-) (The last picture isn't of that robot but of our departmental backup robot (four Overland Neo 2000 LTO-1 robots stacked together as one big logical robot). The L11000 is used by the Lysator ACS (students computer club) here at Linköping University for the backups. It's controlled by Bacula and my PJC program that I wrote when I got fed up with the buggy MTX piece of crap... Btw, I'm looking for testers of PJC so I can make it work on more Unix variants (it currently supports Linux and Solaris, but I've only tested it under Solaris so I'm looking for Linux users willing to test it). Included in the PJC distribution is a "pjc-changer" script that can be used as a replacement for the Bacula-included "mtx-changer" script.
