  1. , since there are free slots here at GCDS I was wondering if somebody wanted to have a sit down and ask questions about Clutter; bugs and feature requests for 1.2 are also welcomed. just send me an email at: ebassi at gnome dot org.
  2. , so, GUADEC/GCDS is now halfway through, and it’s been a pretty cool conference so far. obviously, lots of talks and loads of people to meet and to talk to. Rob did a roundup of the talks that the Intel/Moblin contingent has done and will do here. yesterday …
  3. , so, we’re finally free to show what we’ve been doing for the past six months: it’s been a great ride — and it’s just getting started. we’ve been pushing Clutter forward and center of an entire platform user experience, and it was up to to the …
  4. , while I’m rebuilding my jhbuild setup in order to roll out gnome-utils 2.27.1 ((hopefully before the cut-off time for the 2.27.1 release)) I started pondering on a couple of questions: why are we still shipping the dictionary applet? and, more importantly: why are we still …

  9. , last night I could not sleep, so I decided to upgrade my old WordPress 2.0.11 (yes, you read that right — 2.0.11) installation to the New! And! Improved! hotness of WP 2.7. unfortunately, something went very wrong in the conversion process and all I got was …
