It used to be that when you used the Planet GNOME feed, you would get the faces and and names of the folks who were posting. For some reason this hasn’t been the case lately. Sometimes I see posts with no author names at all, and I have to click through to see who’s post it is.

This is unfortunate, because I rarely remember names, but I always remember faces. And there are a bunch of faces on the planet that I love reading.

Does anyone know why the hakergotchi and author names dissapeared from the Atom and RSS2 feeds?

I spent some time today going over some details for a Passover Seder that I am helping to organize. I needed to know how much wine is in a standard Manischewitz bottle.

The internet is mainly safe for children, as long as you keep them away from porn and information about Manischewitz.

I hope schools have updated their blaklisted sites on their web proxies.

BoingBoing today posted a link to one of my favorite Muppet clips of all time. I even saved it on my laptop a while back so I could watch it frequently. Here is a direct link.

Happy Ireland Day.

I spent most of this week at CSUN. It’s been fun, I am really happy to finally meet a bunch of people, and to meet new folks. Manning the Mozilla booth is easy: every passerby is a grateful user. A lot of subdued dogs.

Update: I Made that sound like past tense. I still am at CSUN, and I will be here till tomorrow.

No, really. Accerciser is always listed first, not sure why. I think it has something to do with it being so good.

But seriuosly, I just rolled the tarballs for the 1.2.0 release, our second major release. You could get them here.

Besides the translation effort, which was awesome, as usual. This release saw plenty of contributions, here is an incomplete list of helpful folks, thank you!

• Rich Burridge
• Scott Haeger
