"You've not heard from me for a while as we've been using your code and it's been working so well we've not needed to get in touch!"

Man, do I like that. That's going in the kudos folder.

Today's budget details are available in "Open XML format", i.e. OpenOffice.

Out of curiosity I just grepped my access log to see who (if anyone) had downloaded my freebie half-assed RVP server. Aside from bots, there was a 13. address, which I fed to whois, and got:
OrgName:    Xerox Palo Alto Research Center
OrgID:      XPARC 
Address:    3333 Coyote Hill Road 
City:       Palo Alto 
StateProv:  CA 
PostalCode: 94304 
Country:    US
Giggle Giggle Giggle. I've been PARC'd.

Me Me Me Me Me. Actually, it's a bit broken at present, but less broken than it was.

I've been working on a plugin for Gaim to allow it to connect to Microsoft Exchange Instant Messaging. It's reached the point where it's actually usable and mostly doesn't destroy major cities when you run it. This morning someone emailed me to say he's pushed it for inclusion in Gentoo's package list. On one hand, yay, distribution; on the other hand, ew, Gentoo (mildly NSFW link; I like this one, too, and it's totally SFW).

So if you're working in a corporate environment where the in-house messaging of choice is Microsoft Exchange Instant Messenger, but you're not inclined to use a Windows machine, please to be availing of my RVP (Rendez-Vous Protocol?) plugin for Gaim 1.0.1 (and possibly upward) which will allow your Linux machine to talk to such a system. Also, quite possibly, your Mac. I'm still working on the latter. Actually, I lie. I'm fiddling with the file transfer code, and the Mac option is dependant on me hassling a cow orker for access to his machine during non-office hours.

...with open source. I'm not quite sure what this does to Microsoft's argument that closed source is more secure than open source.
