Hehe. I have got a new set of Ubuntu CD’ s to distribute now, took just over two weeks to get here I think, I am not sure exactly where they are coming from, but I think that they were bundled with my Brother’s delivery, yes that’s right, Rob ordered some too. Must have been slightly impressed when I fixed his PC with a dapper Live CD, he had the BSOD.

Woop, go OSS.

OSS, the model.

After reading some of David Farnings views on Open Source models and the way defined by a simple set of rules as the project progresses has been very interesting for me. I work on many projects currently and I will continue to do so in the future, although none may be as large as some of the latter stages mentioned in his articles it has been an eye opener.

Thanks David.

The OSS Plateau

Tuesday, February 13th, 2007

With my foray back into OSS recently, I was contacted by one Norman Markgraf, this guy I worked with last year for a few months on OpenDocumentPHP. He is a sound guy and he wanted to try and restart the project, he had noticed that in PHP5.2 there is now ZIP support by default, making our task one hell of a load easier. I was surprised to hear from him and I am now jumping back onto the band wagon when I can.

It’s going to be hard work bringing the OpenDocument Format to the Web, but heck we can try.
