  70. First on today&apos;s agenda was originally to convert the farming module from minetest_game to Minetyst, but checking the dependency list, I saw it depended on the wool module.
  71. Farming uses wool in place of cotton, allowing you to grow wool out of the ground.
  72. While people have pointed out this inaccuracy, certain high-ranking members of the community insist that in Minetest, wool and cotton are the same thing.
  73. I would normally be inclined to ignore the inaccuracy as well in order to put up a more united front and save my efforts for things that actually matter, but I don&apos;t want animal products on my server.
  74. If I wasn&apos;t already forking, I&apos;d still just ignore it, but because I am, I&apos;ve changed every reference to wool to now read &quot;cotton&quot; and renamed the module to match.
  75. Any modules that depend on wool, such as farming, will be changed as well when I get around to converting them to run with the new subgame.
  76. </p>

  78. Farming, on the other hand, took more to convert than I had time for.
  79. I will have to work on that another time.

  82. I decided to keep my <a href="https://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-ppsai-initial-05may15/msg11351.html">comment to <abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">ICANN</abbr></a> short and to the point.
  83. In doing so, hopefully it will actually be read.

  86. It has been brought to my attention that someone is <a href="https://opencores.org/donation">raising funds for open hardware development</a>.
  87. I want to do some more reading on their website before I act, but if they are doing what I hope they are doing, and PayPal (the only donation method they allow) doesn&apos;t give me too much trouble, I&apos;ll toss some money their way.

  90. My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
