Spent early evening mangling Python's smtpd to support SMTP AUTH (PLAIN only for now), so my concept of using Thunderbird as a WYSIWYG editor for Yaki is one step closer (I decided to go with SMTP for now to get something working as soon as possible).
There's a lot afoot, but I'll stick with HandBrake's return with Apple/TV support (Melo got one and has dropped from the face of the Earth since, I'm trying to lure him out with this).
And now, off to dinner, there's a party waiting.
