-## Safari plugin for setting identity preferences
-
-Safari's handling of client-side certificate authentication [changed around OS X 10.5.3](http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1679), such that Safari won't present (and won't prompt you to present) a client-side certificate if certs are only optional. Unfortunately, most sites around MIT only optionally accept certs, in spite of the fact that they'll error out if you don't provide one.
-
-You can override this unfortunate behavior with "Identity Preferences", and IS&T's answer for this is [CertAid](http://ist.mit.edu/services/software/certaid/10x), which simply seeds the Keychain with a pre-defined list of websites for which Safari should present your cert. This isn't a great solution for, e.g., scripts.mit.edu, which has thousands of sites - far too many to give to IS&T to include in CertAid. If that wasn't irritating enough, Identity Preferences don't take affect until you restart your browser.
-
-A better solution would be a plugin for Safari that intercepted 401 errors sent over SSL, prompted you to set an Identity Preference, and then attempted to reload the page with the new identity preference set.

+## Search across every public git repository
+
+The [git](http://www.git-scm.com/) version control system has been
+rapidly gaining in popularity both in the world of free software at
+large as well as at here at SIPB. One of the properties of git is
+that every object, whether it's a specific version of a file or a
+changeset to a project's source code, has a unique identifying hash
+(e.g., "8c5fa44b1a4902ba1f84a71df20bfe4f21867a7c"). Given one of these
+hashes, it should be possible to identify which project it came from
+and what it refers to.
+
+The "easy" way to do this is to create a massive single git repository
+with references to every public git repository we can find, but that
+probably causes performance problems, so you may need to be cleverer
+about how data is stored and expose a different interface. You'll
+also need to figure out a way to find all public git repositories.

+## Improve the Setup and UI for new users of Zephyr
+
+Currently, it is a pain to get someone else set up using zephyr
+within screen on Linerva with automatically-renewing tickets.
+We should write scripts to set them up so that that all they
+have to do is enter a command or click an icon, type their kerberos
+password, and then know how to use Barnowl.
