icon 15:05 Things are hotting up: both previous speakers are now heckling the BT lawyer :-) kerryb
14:57 Great talks at BT by Shane Coughlan (FSF Europe) and Simon Phipps (Sun). I wonder whether the BT legal guy will live up to the standard...
14:19 Simon Phipps: "Pioneers are often the ones in shabby clothes, looking outwards, with arrows in their backs"
10:09 As someone else who recently started cycling again after a long gap, I assure you it does get easier!
07:56 At Adastral Park for the open source event. Relieved to find I haven't forgotten how to drive after two or three months of cycling.

21:55 Just signed up for Rails Camp UK. http://railscamp08.org/
16:43 Well that's 2008 half-over then. How did that happen?
14:56 On a conference call with ANR. I've been quiet today, but he's just said that on the next call we can all "argue about Agile and the SDK"...
09:10 Shaking my head at the fact that our corporate mailbox size limit is only 2.5 x GMail's *message* limit (and < 1% of its mailbox limit).

icon 18:52 Strunk & White, Harts, and the Guardian and (crucially) BT Style Guides all agree with me. Plus, I'm always right ;-) kerryb
15:40 Getting unnecessarily annoyed by BT posters. The possessive of business is business's, not business'.
15:21 I have to ask... why were they searching for those terms?
12:43 Broken network at Baynard not doing anything to improve 'No Work Thursday'.

icon 19:55 So subversion 1.5 finally does merging nicely. Sorry, we're all using git now. kerryb
17:04 After laying 65 eggs in 65 days, Lucy has decided to take a day off today. Still quite an impressive record.
12:34 Trying to set up an svn mirror of a git repo. It should be easy, but it's not.

08:14 Bumped into a former colleague. Said he got out of the project (Switch Manager) because all the C programming was scary for a COBOL person!
07:49 Never talk to a vendor about SOA. http://is.gd/Eum [ppt] (but arguably replace SOAP/WS-* with REST).
