So, a brief run down of what has been happening recently:

1. I’m on holidays! (yay!). We are currently down at Adelaide, which has not yet been informed of the fact that it is summer. Nice though, I hate the heat and it’s relaxing.
2. I’ve made a bit of an update to RSS->IMAP Server. The way it read the RSS feeds needed to be re-jigged a bit and a couple of bugs have been fixed in the process.
3. I’ve finally got myself a copy of Vista to have a bit of a play with. First impressions are good, but all in all not great. With so much time spent in development, and so much promised I can’t help but feel a little disappointed. Out of all the killer features that were to be included, only the Aero interface remains, and that is far from anything revolutionary or groundbreaking.
4. Fedora Core 6 on the other hand is just plain cool. There have been lots of little improvements and it looks very polished. The graphic effects that the open source developers have been able to come up with in a limited amount of time eclipses that which Vista has to offer.

I’m hoping to be able to get some stuff done using the cool script.aculo.us library. While I don’t like using javascript for no reason, some things like the auto-complete functionality seem really quite handy and it degrades nicely. So yeah, a little DMS perhaps?
