Let me put in a rave review for Stockholm - it is great. I love the city, the food, the beer, and most definitely the people. More meetings in Stockholm please.

It is pre release beta software but all I wanted was the version number - instead I got ...

This picture really does not do it justice, it is actually an animated thing with shimmering water that rocks in a seasick motion while the text (which is under the water) scrolls off into the distance under in a bad star wars knock off.

I would not want to imply that the IESG was in an Ivory Tower, but we did have a nice meeting at Harvard.

Now, I'm used to have a computer support group however these guys have an emergency response team for library book support - now that is cool.

I don't know why people go on about Apple's great software. I'm dubious. In Mail.App:

1. They broke the ability to bind a key sequence to applescript in latest version
2. Earlier versions failed to check the certificate name of server in SSL connections
3. Can't filter to display only unread messages
4. Does not spell check the Subject line when spell checking rest of message
5. Can't include folder name in filter rule criteria
6. Search does not seem to use Spotlight
7. You can choose to check spelling when you send, or to have red squiggles under misspelled words - however you can't have both. This is "upgrade" from pervious version where you could not spell check on send at all.
8. If you have two email address for a person, no way to set the preferred one.

Clearly I am in a bad mode but it seems today that the only things I like about my Mac are:

1. It runs UNIX
2. It runs Microsoft Powerpoint and Word

Estacado is going to release an Open Source SigComp stack - this is an technique used for compression of SIP messages. It's good to see this happen - most the stuff needed to build very complex SIP applications is available in open source but this is the first SigComp stack and they are pretty complicated to write.

You can find it at:
Open SigComp
