So. I’m Married

  • May 30, 2005

I got married yesterday. Jasper said that blogging on my wedding day makes my geek score go through the roof.

Yes, it was all lovely, and thus far married life is all it’s cracked up to be. However, my lease ends on Tuesday, which also happens to be my departure date for the honeymoon.

Brian should be handling the news while I’m gone, as likely as not on as crazy a schedule. I won’t be answering my email till I get internet at the new apartment. For Mousepad support, slap it into bugzilla, only way to be sure I’ll get it.

When I return, I have some plans for 4.4 I’d like to set into motion, but more on that when I return.

Welcome to the XWN, where piles of mailing list messages, IRC conversations, and Slashdot trolls are condensed down to something that almost resembles fun. (and where the W probably doesn’t stand for weekly anymore. Oh well).

Weekly News Late

Just a heads up. I’m preparing for the Carolina’s Psychology Conference as we speak, and it’s eating up all of my time and resources. If all goes well, expect the “weekly” news to be back on Monday.

Also, you can always email me at erikharrison AT gmail.com for requests or to drop me a line about any interesting Xfce related tidbits you may have.

This is kinda cool. XWN is in the most recent free LWN, under the development section.

Pretty cool, eh?

Xfce Weekly News – March 14th through March 31st

  • March 31, 2005

Welcome to this week’s Xfce (bi)Weekly News, which I am now subtitling “XFW – Slightly Later, Every Week!” In this edition we see the first entry in what we hope to be a continuing series of short articles on the major new features and technologies in the coming 4.4 release of Xfce. This week, the mysterious and powerful “panel widget”.

Also, I would like to thank Francois Le Clainche for cleaning up the format of last week’s news. If you see Francois, buy him a beer, or whatever the cool kids drink these days.

On to the main event!
