I accept your apology.  No harm done.  :)

If you search the bug-hurd archives, you'll see a very angry email from
me to Samuel back in the day.  It's really ok.

You all have a New Year's party right?  Do you celebrate it on January 1st?  Or 
some other day?
Are there good Chinese holidays that are celebrated at a similar time as our 
Western holidays?

We did have a hackathon not too long ago.  I could certainly put a little more 
effort into 
making our Hurd hackathons a little more fun.
