The clock was out of sync on the PC where btlogger runs. This caused the authenticate process to fail at the token request stage [...]
I finally got around to fixing btlogger. It broke after an Ubuntu upgrade which contained BlueZ changes. Anyway, I have moved the code over to Gitorious and made a new tarball and Debian package. Binary: http://zedstar.org/deb/btlogger_0.3.3-1_i386.deb Tarball: http://zedstar.org/tarballs/btlogger-0.3.3.tar.gz Repo: git clone git://gitorious.org/btlogger/btlogger.git Take a look at the README for further information.
I have made a Guile module which is capable of being used by the IRC bot bobot++.

It is based on a bunch of technologies I wanted to try out. As a result it is somewhat over-engineered for what it [...]
