Emacs makes all things hackable. I wrote a function to quickly pull thumbnails into an emacs-wiki buffer. Yay.

(defun sacha/emacs-wiki-marked-images-as-kill ()
  "Return a list of images ready to be inserted into a wiki page."
  (interactive)
  (kill-new (mapconcat
             'emacs-wiki-make-link
             (dired-get-marked-files)
             "\n")))

bash script for timestamping and thumbnailing pictures

#!/bin/bash
SIZE=320x240
while [ -n "$1" ]; do
  if [ -f $1 ]; then
    DATE=$(date +"%Y%m%d-%H%M%S" --reference="$1")
    EXT=$(echo "$1" | sed 's/.*\././')
    echo $1
    cp $1 "$DATE$EXT"
    cp "$DATE$EXT" "thumb-$DATE$EXT"
    touch --reference="$1" "$DATE$EXT"
    if [ "$EXT" == ".jpg" ]; then
       convert -size $SIZE -resize $SIZE "$DATE$EXT" "thumb-$DATE$EXT"
       touch --reference="$1" "thumb-$DATE$EXT"
    fi
  fi
  shift
done

<sachac> bubulle: Speaking of, is there a URL I can give to people interested
         in the strings for the tl translation?
<helix> danamania: btw, that's bizarre (re: the apple store)
- helix has been to one. they're not that great.
<bubulle> sachac: http://people.debian.org/~seppy/d-i/translation-status.html
<bubulle> and the documentation:
<bubulle> http://people.debian.org/~seppy/d-i/d-i-i18n-documentation/i18n.html
<bubulle> and of course:
<sachac> Mmm, the actual strings?
<bubulle> http://www.debian.org/intl/l10n
<daf> sachac: I was talking about the Welsh pronunciation -- which I guess
      would be similar
<daf> sachac: (a short "ie" would be more casual / less emphasised than a
      longer one)
<bubulle> sachac: /me tries to find where the files are for "prospective"
          lanuages (those which will be included in the +1 release of d-i)
<bubulle> of course in SVN...but some may want to have an easier method
<danamania> helix: it is a bit :).
<sachac> bubulle: Yes, a nice web interface would be really fun.
<daf> bubulle: the tasksel task descriptions are not consistent in the use of
      full stops at the end of descriptions
<bubulle> sachac: the web interface is here on http://people.debian.org/~seppy
<bubulle> but we need to find a better way, with seppy, to handle those
          languages we call "propspective"

Now *that* is a beautifully written piece. I admire Patricia for her humble apologies and for courageously living through the situation and keeping her dignity intact. Not many people have the opportunity to grow up so quickly over so short a time. May this episode whet her appetite for writing even more.
