Everyday Peace

da queste parti si lavora alacremente su Clutter 1.0. per una ragione o per l’altra, ne sono diventato il maintainer de facto — il che significa che devo inseguire gente, pianificare i rilasci, mandare report a varie mailing list, e in generale ... [More] gestire le varie castagne sul fuoco.
me ne farò rapidamente una ragione.
spero.
tra l’altro, passare [...] [Less]

In the Mood

well, I failed at blagging each day of the User Experience hackfest, but mostly because of the sheer amount of discussions, designs and work done.

Finally Woken

the first, alpha quality release of Tweet is available here.

I’d like to stress out that this is an alpha quality release; I’ve been using it for a while, now, and nothing serious like the destruction of my hard drive happened but I cannot guarantee that it won’t happen to you. you’ve been warned.
