The problem: you want to upgrade your Ubuntu server, but you still need PHP 5.2 for some old web sites (i.e. Drupal 5 is not PHP 5.3 compatible).
The solution: Go with the packaged PHP 5.3 for your new sites and compile PHP 5.2 yourself for the old ones. As we use the nginx webserver with FastCGI, we can choose per site which PHP CGI binary will handle the requests.

Sick of developing a Drupal module with CVS? Want to use git but also want your code in CVS on drupal.org for development snapshots? This is an approach to get rid of using CVS completely by synchronizing a git repository automatically to CVS. Basic git knowledge required. Script is on Github. Needs some testing though.
Eine Diskussion rund ums Bleiberecht auf fsinf.at hat mich dazu bewegt auch wiedermal ein bisschen nachzudenken und politischen Senf abzugeben, hier nochmal mein Kommentar zur Frage was denn Integration eigentlich ist:
Funny screenshot I captured yesterday (I guess this bug was originally caused by outputting binary data in a terminal):
I will attend the Drupal Core Developer Summit at Drupalcon San Francisco, so I had to prepare a short lighting talk about a topic that bothers me in Drupal. As I ran into an issue of implementing a hook by accident recently, I decided to come up with some suggestions how to improve the situation. I have attached the PDF I will submit.
The Gmail spam filter works fine most time, but be careful if you are the postmaster of a mail server and want to check delivery failure notifications in your Gmail account.
In the last weeks I thought about a topic for my master thesis at the Vienna University of Technology, and I came up with the idea of integrating Drupal and Web Services.
Update: Do not use this script anymore, drush provides a very good upgrade mechanism itself now!
Upgrading Drupal core can be a very tedious task - especially if you run a Drupal multi site installation (backup database, put site into maintenance mode, run update DB script, put site online again - repeat for every single site). We use Drush and a custom bash script to make life much more easier on our fsinf.at Drupal farm.
