• really flat race with no up climbs above 5 meters and an overall up climbing of about 30 meters
• high level marathon. Even though it only has 600 runners, it is the fastest in France, when considering the "median" time (the time of the runner arrivng exactly half of all runners) of about 3h35.
• it is located in Normandy so the likeliness of heat in October is just science-fiction..:-)

• Seine-Eure marathon, the flattest marathon in France, on October 21st. This marathon is the one where I set the record which I just broke in June, in Caen. So, the goal is easy to find : break it again. My target time is around 3h37. Not so ambitious in apparence, with a current record at 3h38'45". However, I can't afford the highly meticulous preparation I did in April-May-June, so I try to stay with an achievable target.
• The Le Raid Le Puy-Firminy 70km night run on November 24th. Here, I'll just try to go faster than 9h15 which I achieved last year, trying to have a better race management and avoid cramps. Of course, meteorological conditions will be the key, here, as it can be as low as -15 C in that part of France, in November..:-)

• Arabic completes level 3
• Progress for Uyghur in level 2

Originally posted by bubulle on Planet Debian, a shell prompt that displays the current git branch, in colour on some terminals, after the current working directory. The following snippet does similar things for mksh users, except it doesn t redefine your prompt but amend it just throw it at the bottom of your ~/.mkshrc before that last line beginning with a colon (copy from /etc/skel/.mkshrc if you haven t done that yet):

	function parse_git_branch  
		git branch 2>/dev/null   sed -n '/^\* \(.*\)/s//(\1)/p'
	 
	function amend_prompt_with_git  
		local p q='$(parse_git_branch)' r
		if [[ $TERM = @(xterm-color xterm screen*) ]]; then
			if [[ $ PS1:1:1  = $'\r' ]]; then
				p=$ PS1:0:1 
			else
				p=$'\001'
				PS1=$p$'\r'$PS1
			fi
			q=$p$'\e[1;33m'$p$q$p$'\e[0m'$p
		fi
		p=$ PS1%%*( )[#$]*( ) 
		if [[ $p != "$PS1" ]]; then
			# prompt ends with space + #-or-$ + space, we can amend
			r=$ PS1: $ #p 
			PS1=$p$q$r
		fi
	 
	amend_prompt_with_git
	unset -f amend_prompt_with_git
 

The indirection by use of a function is not strictly necessary but allows the use of locals. I took the liberty of adding an asterisk after screen to match the GNU/Linux nonsense of having TERM=screen.xterm or somesuch.

• already fixed in unstable (therefore checking that unblock requests have been sent by maintainers)
• sent as a bug report (so that I can harrass package maintainers to fix it)
• under work by a localization team (so that I can pester them to move on)

• it was not that busy at that time
• this is the only way to not get lost in the barrios as we'll see later on..:-)
