Mono.Fuse

On the drive to Sebastopol, I peppered Miggy with questions on how best to implement a C# FUSE binding, essaying to produce such a beast one weekend.

SLC to Provo

A month or so ago, I assumed the role of Chief Architect of Novell's sterling Linux desktop effort. Concerned with our longer-term technical direction and overall system architecture, this week finds me visiting colleagues in Provo.

Foo Camp was arduous and this will be a long week, so I am planning to jet to Florida for the holiday weekend—assuming Ernesto doesn't make a salmagundi of the place. If not, there is always Saint Kitts.

Foo Camp to SFO

A blast, enlightening but exhausting, Foo Camp ended with renewed enthusiasm and my continued thanks to Tim.

SFO to Foo Camp

Miguel refused to get in the Hummer H3 I rented for the drive to Foo Camp, which is total crap, ergo I was forced to downgrade to a less conspicuous SUV.

And so, with the last minute addition of Alex Graveley, we hit 101 North for wine country.

BOS to SFO

A dreary early morning in Boston. The sun fights to break the clouds, but with a flight to catch, I don't have time to wait. I will race it to the top.

Off to Foo Camp!

Really, I Just Fly Down for the Beer

Lafayette Square was overbooked and thus my Saturday picnic was canceled in lieu of a pro-Lebanon cease-fire demonstration.
