Ok so the Indy project is on hold a bit until I can get a tad more ram and the external. Also let me make this a shout out to any SGI folks that may be reading my blog - drop me a line and let me know if you are willing to put your neck out for me to ask you some questions as I go along.. there is a nice T-bone steak off of my BBQ grill in it for you. :) Don't worry however - I will complete this challenge - just need to get my ducks in a row.
The Amiga Roundtable podcast show #2 has been released and of course, it was a lot of fun. Rich took me by surprise in having me plug my little blog - anyhow if you made it here because of the show...welcome! Mike was a great guest, and I implore you all to check out #AmigaGuide Magazine and AmigaWeb.net.
There are a few items that have occurred over the last week that I thought I would drop on you all - Kinda news item-type stuff that I have been following.
SyllableOS - "The little hobby OS that could", had their SylCon 2007 meeting in Europe over the weekend. I am still trying to have a moment to digest the mailing list items and forum posts to see what was announced -but so far not much. I assume most that attended are trying to recover or something. The email client Whisper has a new version that was launched, ver. alpha 8, the big thing that was added is API to give the ability for other apps to control Whisper. Its pretty slick - just like most crucial applications that have already been written for it while many other OS projects struggle. The progress that these folks make with so few active developers is at times, astounding. I urge you all to take a look at this little OS, it is pretty cleaver.
Free Software Daily - Me like - check it out. Devoted to free and open source software. Ala-Digg allows you to vote news items up and down - but that is not what I like about it actually just a great way in a snapshot to get the latest news about the open source movement.
