+## Bazki
+
+[Bazki](http://bazki.mit.edu/) is a wiki written in Python designed around several principles: structured data with object-oriented inheritance; using a wiki language with powerful macros that can be compiled into either HTML or PDF (via LaTeX); and making the content editable offline using a VCS.  Bazki works enough to to be useful, but it has lots of room for improvement and probably would benefit from some major design changes.

+## Fix AFS support in IcedTea
+
+The [IcedTea](http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/Main_Page) open-source Java plugin currently [doesn't support having users with AFS homedirs](http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=166). The plugin creates a pair of sockets in your homedir that are used to communicate between the applet viewer and the browser plugin. Since AFS doesn't support FIFOs, this fails.
+
+It should be relatively simple to patch both the applet viewer and the browser plugin to simply use `/tmp`, or possibly fall back on `/tmp` if opening the FIFO in `$HOME` doesn't work - just find all the places in the code those paths get used.
+
+(See also [the bug we filed](http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=312), which lists a couple more paths to look for)
