Yes, you can now follow OpenBSD commits via Twitter!

I was interested in the g2k12 hackathon but didn't really want to spend the time in my email so I wrote a script that reads the commit email, shortens the text and posts it to Twitter.

It posts each module to its own feed so you can choose what to follow or there is an account that retweets each entry from the others.
* OpenBSD_cvs: The master account that retweets all the others.
* OpenBSD_src: Tweets from the src module.
* OpenBSD_ports: Tweets from the ports module.
* OpenBSD_www: Tweets from the www module.
* OpenBSD_xenocar: Tweets from the xenocara module.

So far it has been very interesting and lots of fun to see the progress they are making.

      I disagree, do I have to write a script to comment 200 times ? :-)

      obviously, you give a fuck.
      Otherwise you would not have commented.

      We're all too busy re-designing www.openbsd.org, remember?! Now, was I doing it in Tcl or Lua?

      Then *you* should write some fucking articles instead of complaining. Stop being an asshole.

      Here's another comment. 193 to go to prove Marc wrong.

      Thanks for the article and the feeds.
