Ikke's Blog

Done today

• Created an initial page on OPluginManager on live.gnome.org.
• Started writing a longer article on women in the FOSS community, now Gnome-Women was launched (actually, did that yesterday ;-))
• Sent an email to the author of this article in our local newspaper to explain crackers are no hackers (and the other way around). WikiPedia got some decent information on this issue.
• Did not study enough :-(

TODO:

• Continue working on the OPluginManager design, then implement some more of it. Get to learn some more on GObject<->Python/Mono interaction, and Python/Mono<->native calling code (ie how to allow using an OPluginManager object in Python/C#, and how to allow OModuleLoader/OPluginManager to work with Python/C# based plugins).
• Finish the mentioned article
• Poke jdub to get some response (even if it's negative) ;-)
• Write some of my ideas on the Tag based desktop down, decide wether to send it to desktop-devel@gnome or xdg@fdo, and do so accordingly.
• Study!!!!

KEW2005

Just sit back and relax. Enjoy

If you really want to know what it is: Johannes Brahms' "Sonate nr. 3 in d Op. 108", by Yossif Ivanov (BE), 2nd price at the Queen Elisabeth concours last week. A magnificent piece in a superb performance. Partial movie is here, you need the latest WMP codecs to play it when running Linux.

Gnome stuff

Some new Topaz mockups were created, showing another (more radical IMHO) view on what Gnome3 should become, like these before. If you want to comment on them, desktop-devel is the place to be.

Since today, I got write access to Gnome CVS, mostly thanks to Philip and Ronald. Thank you guys! Just got the documentation building of asyncworker working (I hope at least ;-)), patch submitted (edit: and committed. My first one :-)). I'll import my first work on OPluginManager somewhere later this week.

And I may not forget to send out some emails to find some holiday job. As I'm a lazy bum, I still didn't send them :oops:

Portage on Windows

Maybe one day we'll be able to get lots of *nix software running under Windows using Gentoo's Portage. Read this.

Southpark Character

Do what others do
Maybe I should just use this as my hackergotchi, I'd scare people by using a "real" one ;-)
