…and now it seems that Donald has too:

Mr Rumsfeld was asked by a New York audience about connections between Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden.

“To my knowledge, I have not seen any strong, hard evidence that links the two,” he said.

At last!

Well done to SpaceShipOne!

I’ve installed Ubuntu Linux and am very impressed. Ubuntu is to Debian, as Firefox is to Mozilla.

I bet all the camera manufacturers are glad that this patent was rejected on appeal.

Terrible.

Spent today setting up a CVS tree for M3. So far so good. It’s looking like it may all work. As M3 is an incremental improvement on M2, we are keeping the Fusebox framework for this version. This is mainly because I want to improve the data storage system and core data access functions. I can’t change too much in one go as it’ll take too long to learn and iron the bugs out. Maybe for M4 we’ll sort out the framework.

Anyway, the skeleton that I’ve created so far seems to be working. I need to sort out all the general library stuff that we use such as Smarty, Auth Suite, ADOdb, mimemessage for email etc. Something to do tomorrow :)

Friends of ours have just given birth to a beautiful little boy whom they’ve called Benjamin. He was born last Tuesday whilst we were on holiday and we haven’t seen him yet as I’m waiting for Ben’s, Jon’s and my cold to go away.

It was warm and sunny there; it’s cold here.

Hot weather for a week :)
