Software have released a port of Doom for the
iPhone. What makes this exciting for
me is the lineage of this code. the iPhone port is derived from
prboom. Peeking around in the source code, there's
some of my code in there (p_checksum.[ch]) as well as some code I borrowed
from dpkg (md5.[ch], thanks to Colin Plumb and Ian Jackson). This stuff is
unlikely to actually be run on the iPhone, mind (although I think I have
some patches against p_enemy.c which will).
John Carmack has some interesting words about developing the app.

This morning was marginally less drab.

I've been on hold to my mobile phone provider for over an hour. However, in that time, I've take a massive bite out of my miscellaneous TODO list. That feels good!
