Reneging on a election campaign commitment not to increase the number of Australian soldiers serving in Iraq, Prime Minister John Howard last week announced the deployment of a further 450 troops to the southern Iraqi province of Al-Muthanna. By Rich Bowden.

Somewhere over the past week, I received my copy of the latest edition of MacTech. The magazine has really undergone some changes - branching out quite a bit to reach a wider audience. I'm not sure I really like it, but I'm still reading it. I guess time will tell. But one thing they had in this past issue was a reasonably coherent article outlining the differences between Postgres and MySQL. Now I've always been a MySQL fan, but that was mostly out of default. I never really investigated Postgres, although I've been prompted to do so by some of it's fans. The article makes some claims that it doesn't really back up with numbers, but even still it's pretty good.

MCMS Site Manager is generally used to browse through/work with Channels/Postings, Templates, Resources and User rights. But it doesn't let us to check/do some basic stuff which is provided through MCMS API. MCMS Manager can be used to do some of those tasks: it can be used with Site Manager to give some functionality which is not provided by Site Manager. This tool will be a useful one for those who want to deal with postings. As a developer I felt that Site Manager lacked in few features which I thought would be handy if it can provide. This tool provides those cool features.

I have began the great photo upload from my recent, and still massively jet lagged, work trip to Australia. The date/time and orientations should be correct. I will be going back and photomerging many of the outdoor shots for some hopefully stunning outdoor shots. They are broken into five albums, Sydney, Hunter Valley (Horse Country), Melbourne, Wine Country outside Melbourne and LAX. Of special note are the photos of me on the Sydney Harbor Bridge with BridgeClimb, at the FooBar, the Koalas and all those iPod Shuffle 1 and Apple Store signs.

Natty Gur has been blog-busy lately. His blog is a great start if you want to understand what Enterprise architecture means (not enterprise application, but from an organizational point of view). He's also contemplating starting an online user group for EA. I'm not sure how that would work, but it sounds interesting!

I wish I was there - really. Content Genres is one of my pet peeves. I mean - I studied media genres for years at the university and have tried to integrate this knowledge into my work ever since.

Wish I was there. At the Information Architects Summit. It's the same every year. Even though I promiss myself I will go next year, next year there is another good reason for not going. But I wish I was there. Content resuability is something I spend most of two years working on - in an e-learning setting. Since Instructional Design is basically the rhetoric of instruction, and since this is the discipline of structuring content according to a pedagogical/didactic plan, content reusability and content objects were right there in front of our eyes. It was - however - not something that just anybody was ready to grasp and work with. I had some gruesome moments with a few journalists, and when I left the team that worked with these concepts - it all crumbled. I simply underestimated my own role in this. BTW: If Usability is king - then what is Reusability? Seb's Open Research

I didn't realize it had been 2 years since I had done a formal release. I've been telling people to grab the head of CVS, so I got lazy. Here's a release where all of the regression tests run, pulled from a CVS tag, with the documentation that matches. Major new features include: A new XML parser, a port of James Clark's XP to native C#. Much faster, and avoids the bug that Microsoft added to their XML parser in CLR 1.1 service pack 1. SSL/TLS support, using the Mentalis Security Library Support for Mono, except for SSL/TLS. Compile from source using the Makefile Lots of cleanup: bugs, missing race conditions, and shutdown issues fixed. Go to the JabberStudio project page for more information and to grab the bits.

I found mt-rebuild which allows you to schedule a rebuild of an entry/page/index which is just what I needed to force a rebuild of my main index page on absocachinlutely to include my latest finds in the side bar of the page. I had to rename my Main Index to MainIndex and then include the blog id, set the mode to index and provide the template name in a cronjob as follows:-/full-pathname-to/mt-rebuild.pl -blog_id=9 -template=MainIndex -mode=index

Paul Murphy gives a great reminder, interpreting Linux via "The Tipping Point" book, on the relationship between technical excellence and more human factors: "Technology advantages don't lead to social revolutions." We are all occassionally guilty of thinking that it's just about the code. It isn't. In fact, it frequently isn't much about the code at all. Did Plone take off because it was supremely well designed and implemented software? Probably not. The Plone Foundation is working on a publicity strategy for the 2.1 release. Is there something untoward about this, like an encroachment on the magic garden? According to a <a href="http://business.newsforge.com/business/05/02/22/180249.shtml?tid=17">NewsForge article</a> on "timing release schedules to maximize publicity", there are steps you can take to improve the effectiveness of your storytelling. Of course, this NewsForge article sparked a follow-up comment of "you don't have to waste money on marketing - the product speaks for ...

Today Google officially launches Google Desktop Search 1.0. There is an excellent commentary at John Battelle's Searchblog analyzing the implications of the release, John thinks the release is... "... a pretty big deal, because Google is adding a couple of things in release 1.0 which 1/make a lot of sense, and 2/will stir up a pot o' press reaction, all of which will have some variant of this headline: "Google Plans End Run Around Microsoft." John refers primarily to the simultaneous release of an SDK, and free-standing search box. The SDK allows third-party developers to integrate GDS, including Google's far-reaching web search, directly into their own applications, and ensure that their application's formats are indexed by GDS. End users will increasingly benefit as new plug-ins allow indexing of formats beyond those currently supported by GDS. Want to search across an archive of old Ami Pro or WordPerfect files? No doubt someone will author the plug-in. The new free-standing ...
