A small review of the Nokia 770’s 2006 firmware beta

Saturday, June 10th, 2006

Jeff Waugh beat me to the punch on a blog about the new firmware for the Nokia 770. I have to agree with him: The Nokia 770 is ready for the enterprise. And for the home.
I installed the 2006 software update last night for the first time. While I have been coordinating with the Nokia [...]

New libnotify, notification-daemon and notify-python releases

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

I’m very tired, so I’ll keep this brief.
I just put out libnotify 0.4.0, notification-daemon 0.3.5, and notify-python 0.1.0 releases. Most of the really annoying bugs people have reported have been fixed. More information is available on the news post.
I made a decision that will be unpopular to some, and I expect some disagreement on it. [...]

Galago 0.5.0! Can I sleep now?

Friday, April 21st, 2006

I finally, after a long 8 months of development, put out Galago 0.5.0. The list of changes are huge, but I feel it’s a pretty solid release. I’ve been wanting to get this release out for a while now, but I kept finding one more thing to fix. I finally bit the bullet and prepared [...]

GTK+ and semi-transparent windows
Mike Hearn wrote a blog entry on writing GTK+ applications that provide semi-transparent Cairo-rendered windows. He suggests a SexyWindow class for libsexy, which actually fits in with some of my plans nicely. More on this… someday.

Galago 0.5.0.. Almost
Galago 0.5.0 is about to be released. I’ve said this for a while, but it’s [...]

A few project updates

Thursday, January 26th, 2006

I’ve been putting off several posts for a few days now, due to just being busy with things. So, here we go.
Notification Framework
I just put out a couple of good releases of notification-daemon and libnotify. A few days ago, I released version 0.3.2 of both components, and tonight I put out notification-daemon v0.3.3, which contains [...]

Hard Day in GNOME
All day long, people have been talking on IRC about the Novell lay-offs. It’s been sad to see, and as hard as it was for the people who were let go, I’m sure it was just as hard for those that had to let people go. My condolences to everyone who’s been [...]

galago.info is no more, for a while

Thursday, September 8th, 2005

I discovered last night that galago.info had expired just a couple of days ago. I was a bit shocked by this and looked through my inbox for expiration notices, but could find none. They may have been caught by the spam filter :(. So, it’s in this state where it’s unavailable for everybody (myself included) [...]

Mood: Asleep

Saturday, August 6th, 2005

It’s way too early for me. I got up at 7:00, which is not something I do very often at all. I’m groggy and wearing my Destroy Mornings shirt. Still, it’s for a good cause! I’m seeing my girlfriend in half an hour or so and heading back home to visit family and friends. My [...]

Beagle with Galago support

Wednesday, July 13th, 2005

The release of Beagle 0.0.12 rocks. Among the many reasons is support for Galago, provided by Lukas Lipka. This just kicks ass. Simple, informative, useful integration that doesn’t get in your way. Now if some other IM clients will step up and provide at least optional support for Galago, non-Gaim users will be able to [...]

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Chicken, now in gelatin style

Something I threw together the other night in Inkscape

Galago
I finally gave up with the whole “playing everything politically safe” with Galago and am now moving the whole library to GLib. It’ll take some time, and there’s a few things I need to figure out first. For example, a very useful feature that Galago’s [...]
