 GNOME 10-Year Party

Been busy post-GUADEC. I'm having a huge GNOME 10-Year Party tomorrow, Friday, August 17th. Contact me for details.

Other than that, trying to find time to work on the cookbook layout and production.

While at cooking, I read about Krecipes the other day through the awesome Fedora Daily Package, run by my friend and O'Reilly author Chris Tyler. In fact, he was kind enough to let me do technical review of his book, Fedora Linux, last year. Thanks also goes to Fedora Weekly News for syndicating FDP. And yes, I've learned about Gourmet Recipe Manager since.

 Yay GNOME 2.18 and RHEL 5!

So it so hectic a week that I'm just recovering from email and planet load and remembering that in fact I didn't post about GNOME 2.18 and RHEL 5 releases, coinciding last Wednesday. Anyway, Yay!

On Wednesday night we also went to SkuleNite. Andrew Overholt was playing, and it was hilarious.

Had a great time at the GNOME 2.18 Release Party. Met a few new interesting people, including my currently favorite cairo hacker (hi Jeff), as well as the usual suspects (except for Ben who was missed)...
