 It is kind of crazy how far this project has come - this software is now available on [[https://packages.debian.org/sid/httpdirfs|Debian]]. It is interesting enough to attract a Debian Developer who packaged and uploaded it.  It is kind of crazy how far this project has come - this software is now available on [[https://packages.debian.org/sid/httpdirfs|Debian]].

 I really don't know what to feel or what to say about this one - this project was originally designed to annoy someone on the Internet. It was not meant to be useful or helpful. It feels really strange that some researchers on the Internet are taking it seriously. Because I am in UEA Triathlon Club, I have a lot of friends who study medicine, I do enjoy being around them. But I find it highly weird that HTTPDirFS somehow winds up helping out with biomedical research - when will people who are somehow related to medicine leave me alone? (Only joking of course!) My dad does biomedical research, so I suppose it feels great to indirectly contribute to the field. :-) I really don't know what to feel or what to say about this one - this project was originally designed to annoy someone on the Internet.
