You Can’t Fire Me, I Don’t Work In This Van

Sorry to disappear for a bit. I’ve taken a job recently, where I had to start work immediately I was replacing two other employees which had to take emergency leave. Given that any job that pays money is preferable to working on free software, I have had to devote time to my new job. So, I’ve been fitting in programming around schoolwork and work work. I don’t want to give a date on anything right now, as they only seem to cause problems. I’m still working on stuff, I’m still here, and I’ll leave it at that.

Sorry to leave everyone in the dark for so long. It’s been busy.

We will be releasing a new version of Extras2Extras2 with the new site. It will be compatible with ppat and CLR resources, which means it should move almost all themes to Intel with no glitches or unthemed pieces. I actually have a copy on my desktop right now, which was used to port Iridium over to x86, ppats and all.

I was actually very happy to help port Iridium over to Mac OS X x86. As a result of working on the port we’ve been polishing and bugging our x86 translation routines. If you have an x86 Mac and haven’t tried the Iridium theme yet, you should check it out!

Hey Everyone!

Again, I’ll be in Cupertino this weekend (for a wedding), so we’ll be launching new stuff if time permits. It’s usually considered rude to be huddled over a laptop when your girlfriend’s brother is getting married, but who knows, maybe I’ll have some free time.

In the mean time, I’ll announce two things to hold you over.

First, we’re launching a new web site. You can preview it at:

Secondly, we are upgrading our bugtracker and renaming it Dradis. You can preview our new bugtracker through the web page above. I think there are some issues with it being set up for sending out account confirmation emails, but aside from that it’s ready to go. The only bad news is during the upgrade we had to flush our old bug tracker database, so if you had an account on it we had to delete it.

Hi everyone, we’re aware the first of the month has passed. Triage Group’s CVS server will be out until Saturday (therefore, our CVS server will be out until Saturday). I’ll be in Cupertino Friday-Monday but Martin and I should be able to launch everything on Saturday. We’ll have some nice goodies for everyone.

Thanks for being patient.
