    Wireless is now in place in Southwest hall.  Yesterday Ethan, Joel, and I finished installing a total of 14 802.11g wireless access points, about 2 per floor per wing.  Initial testing shows that there is now good wireless coverage in most if not all of the dorm.  I was able to take my WIFI VOIP…

    This morning I upgraded our version of Spamassassin from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2.  No major changes with this release that I can see.  I also ran sa-update to get the most recent patterns and stuff.  Hopefully this will help it catch even more of those stock spams we are seeing these days.

    I was thinking today about the various pieces that help to make the Gustavus website as strong as it is and was taken aback at the number of free-to-use components we employ.
