Defended
Huzzah! I’ve defended, and I’ve been given a fairly minor set of revisions to make before the thesis can be accepted. Which is fantastic. I was worried that the defense committee would want to see much more explanation of parsing algorithms, complexity, or some other area that I hadn’t written about in great depth.
All that remains to be done is minor edits on the document, some code cleanup, and then prep for the OCLUG presentation. It sounds like there is some interest from my external on the defense committe in using qcap, which may also result in some nifty work. w00t!

Congratulations! I knew the revisions would be minor ones. Mine ended up taking about half a day to do, maybe less.
Now go get sloshed!!!
