Planet and Planetarium

January 8, 2004 – 13:36

Edd mentioned to me yesterday
that Ted Leung from
Apache-land mailed him about setting up an aggregator for Apache related
blogs. Mails forwarded and replied and now I’m even more amazed about how
quickly this thing is taking off. There will be an Apache link in
Planetarium very soon (indeed, it sounds like Thom is getting
antsy about setting it up)… […]

Good
interview with Nat, Miguel and Chris Stone of Novell. More expression of
disbelief at Sun’s Linux strategy will hopefully kick them out of their
stupor. I love Sun’s contributions to GNOME, but I want them to survive to
keep doing it! Also of interest, IBM memo about using
Linux desktops… They have a good relationship with Novell now, too. […]

Sri, some suggestions about the new summaries, being a keen reader. Thanks so much for getting the summaries kicking again!

Skip almost all of the software releases, unless they have major interest value - there are lots of places to find out about these, and you’re better off having a shorter, more information-heavy summary than lots […]

Man, I just got dissed by Joe [1]
because I didn’t mention his Project Utopia hackery. The sad thing is, it is
because of a lame UTC-normalisation bug in Planet GNOME that I think Scott has fixed. Yes, I
blame the technology! Which of course means the human who didn’t fix it: Me.
(I miss Joe’s entries because they […]

Sent Scott a long
mail about the Planet code with patch. Will be good to sync up and then
track development. Totally embarrassed that Miguel had to remind me about
Monologue, because it was
the very first Planet ‘child’ aggregator. D’oh. Plus, I should be
reading it more often.
Very interesting proposed modules discussion going on. I’m glad we […]

Luis scares
me: Did a lot of dishes, which paid off- Indian for lunch, and French
onion soup very shortly for dinner. Smells very good as I type. Doing
the dishes paid off with food. Did the food… come from… the dishes? Left
overs were never meant to be that seedy, dude.

dopey just pointed out that Scott J. Remnant just
announced Planet
Debian! Phwoar - rocking! Now he’s in for the hard slog of convincing
people to add RSS feeds to their hacked up Emacs diary scripts, finding ever
more feeds to add, sweet-talking people into writing blogs… It’s a
wonderful thing… Although, I don’t believe I’m qualified to be on […]
