Brent is going to school! [inessential.com] Very cool. After many fruitless gradeschool years of French (in Belgium as a kid), I thought I was a lousy language student. But I took Spanish for a couple of recent years and enjoyed it thoroughly.

Lots going on. Just got back from Austin. Great town. Ate some yummy tex-mex and BBQ. Our eventual move there is taking shape. Worked a little on showlace tying with Ben today. I've been remiss -- he should have it down by now. Too many velcro shoes; he hasn't had much to practice on.

Haven't posted for a while, getting new DSL service up and running here, doing lots of random stuff, preparing to sell the house and move. It's a big job! I'll try to pull myself back online and communicate here more.

A friend of mine, Craig "fungod" Russell, just passed this to me in an email titled When things go wrong. Said Craid: "Check out this link and let the page fully load before scrolling. Also be sure to read the captions."

Since I'm looking for feedback, I decided it was time to modernize and hook up the comments feature. This post should turn it on.

I'm working on weaning UserLand from SourceSafe, which sucks and doesn't cross platforms so well. I know how great CVS is and want to adopt it. (I've worked with it before; I love the way you don't have to check things in and out, can keep separate branches in sync, etc. And it's wicked fast, something you'd never say about VSS.) We don't have a linux server handy, so I've been investigating CVSNT. It sounds like it's the only player in the Windows world, and there are GUI clients for Windows and Macintosh: http://www.cvsgui.org/

The trick is setting up the server. My initial install of CVSNT has been problematic, so I scaned the web for tips, DevGuy warns against using the server machine for anything else; he recommends a dedicated, headless workstation. Can this be right? For a small team, is serving CVS really that delicate? Maybe only on Windows...  Any tips, tricks, stories or recommendations?

I wonder where there's a link to the home page of a Category. The Categories checkboxes on the desktop home page link to RSS.xml, not the url specified in upstream.xml. Nor so I see a link on the Categories page.

The insertion of UL news into the Status Center is wonderful -- very Tivo-like.
