bzr-extmerge now moved to launchpad
New web hotel
Snake babies
New BZR with tags, and cooperation without distributed
vcs
(first blog in a looooong time)
In the latest and greatest BZR you can have tags. It's really neat and one of the features I've been waiting for. I added (with the help of other bzr people, mostly Alexander) the functionality to see the tags in the log output. That's pretty much the only thing I've done in the opensource world for almost a year
Now I just want better cherry-pick support and bzr would be the ultimate revision control system
Regarding distributes vcs'.
Since I've moved to Mac, I've started using Textmate as my main text editor. It really can do a lot of great things, and I'm very happy with it. Even if it's not opensource. Textmate has many "bundles" and they are opensourced and contained in a svn repository. Since Textmate is very popular and people want it for other platforms, multiple clones has popped up. One for windows is e-texteditor, that's even trying to stay bundle-compatible with textmate (which they have to use cygwin for). However, they have now started a e-plugins google code project/repository. Here they state that they want to contribute things back to Textmate.
This is all good except that they now have two separate svn repositories, where they get no help in merging back and fourth between each other. If they had chosen a distributed vcs instead, this would be a none-issue. To get the most compatibility between Mac and Windows, bzr is probably the best choise.
Well, they are just going to have to have fun in trying to get this to work. It is doable, but you spend much time working with merging, instead of coding.

BZR extmerge zip file
I
was asked to put up a zip file of the extmerge plugin
so you don't need to branch it.
You can find it on the extmerge page.

Apple IPhone, wow
I want it NOW.
Apple really shows that they are innovative. We've seen everything they are doing before, but they just do it with that extra finish. It looks great

Weekly Cocoa app challenge
Chris Forsythe, one of the developers behind AdiumX, has started a Weekly Cocoa
application challenge. He's doing a small "stupid"
application every week (or soo...) without
source-code, and our job is to re-implement it.
Next week, he'll show us the source of last weeks
application. This is a perfect way to learn Cocoa
development.
I've done the first weeks application. Took about 30 min, but I learnt a lot in the meantime.

Nokia N800 Internet Tablet
The Nokia N800 Internet Tablet.
A followup to the Nokia 770.
Look very sweet. I just don't have any need for it (but, then again, I had no need for the 770 either, really )
I really love my 770, and this looks even better.
Specs are not released yet, but it has a VGA webcam apparently, and two SD slots, which is much better than the RS-MMC slot that the 770 has. Very cool, can't wait for the full specs.
