I've been messing around with my pubsubclient library again, and the issue with publishing now appears to be fixed (either thanks to me or thanks to the ejabberd team if it was a bug in the server).
Anyway, it's working again, and it's now an opportunity to get more reply handlers and documentation written. Since I'm currently in the middle of my exam period this obviously should not be a full-steam-ahead effort, but I'm going to keep chipping away at the TODO list (which is now formalised into a not-yet-up-to-date SPEC-COMPLIANCE file). It's now just a case of putting in the work, since it's not hard thought involved, it's just extracting data from XML and putting it into sensible, pure Python representations.
The website is still around at http://pubsubclient.sourceforge.net/ and the code is still on GitHub at http://github.com/Warbo/pubsubclient/tree/master
Enjoy :)

Resits Over
Now it's in the hands of the Gods (by which I mean, of course, the Scientists). There's nothing I can do to change the outcome now, but I at least hope that nobody seriously pisses them off before they get marking.
COM166 wasn't too bad. It was actually the same paper as the first time from what I could tell, but the papers had to be left behind. PHY203 was allowed to be taken away after the exam, thus they had a different paper for the resit. Weirdly I seemed better at the statistical mechanics (Boltzmann distributions, partition functions and the like, but sadly not so much with the statistical weighting of macrostates and its relation to entropy :( Yes, I know the formula, but just couldn't articulate its relation to microstate counting very well) than some of the thermodynamics, even though I left it very late with the statistical revision. Meh, probably it was fresher in my mind.
Anyway, yes. They're gone now and I'm confident I've passed, but obviously we live in a Universe who's determinism is a matter of debate. I may have done slightly better had I not been listening to the BRAT game music playing over and over in my head on the way into the exam, and a subconscious yet rather annoying repetition of "WOOOOOHOHOHOOOOOAAA!" about half way through. Yes, my head is weird. m8.
Now I can carry on exactly what I was doing before, but this time not feel so guilty about wasting time :P </joking>
