The tizen guys have been sending me pull requests for smack stuff and
related fixes in the past couple days. (Starting right before I had to
get on my plane to japan.)

I've been squinting at them (through gmail's horrible web interface:
web browsers had multiline text entry fields back in the 90's that
would scroll the window if you tried to highlight more text than the
screen currently displayed; the gmail guys reinvented this wheel in a
giant pile of buggy javascript that will NOT scroll the window so when
you reply to a long email and want to delete most of it you have to
highlight, cut, cursor to scroll the screen, and rinse repeat about 15
times. And don't get me started on file attachments where "right
click->open in new tab" has worked for links for 15 years but they
wrote javascript to explicitly PREVENT this from working because
viewing a patch attachment without saving it ot the local hard drive
first isn't a use case that ever occurred to them...)

Anyway, trying to come up to speed on git with crippled email tools,
no access to most of my email archives (I download it into thunderbird
with pop), while in japan for work (and thus fairly heavily
scheduled).

This is not likely to be a particularly productive month for me
toybox-development-wise, is what I'm saying. :)

Anyway, yay pull requests. I'll presumably figure it out. Streamlining
the process going forward would be great, but right now I'm faliling a
little bit to get obvious patches applied. (My old laptop I was trying
to migrate off of has an adapter that works in japanese outlets! The
shiny new one with the faster processor and SSD does not. Ok then...)

P.S. While rereading one of the above paragraphs to see if it was
coherent, gmail spontaneously re-wordwrapped the paragraph after 15
seconds of inactivity during which I hadn't touched the keyboard. Ok
then.

P.P.S. Because the thunderbird with my email is on a machine running
ubuntu 14.04 and this old netbook is running 12.04, and copying the
.thunderbird directory between machines is forwards but not backwards
compatible. Also I left the USB stick with the tarball, intended to
install on the _new_ machine that requires a ground plug Japan hasn't
got, on my desk at home in texas.)

P.P.P.S. 11 time zones. Day 3. I'm averaging more coherent than I
expected, but it comes and goes. My main failure mode for incoherence
is verbosity. Sorry 'bout that.
