Chicago, Chicago: Frank is preparing his trip to windy city. My sister, who lives in Detroit, reports freezing weather heading that way. Pack some warm clothes Frank!

New book: I received my copy of the new Cocoon book today. It will be interesting to see the differences to ours...

Moving Cocoon: Something Stefano discussed with us has now made its way onto the list. The plan is to make Cocoon a proper Apache project.

Jacquies Rant Page: "hurray for hot water"

The visit. On Sunday, Stefano Mazzocchi came to visit us here in Paderborn and we had a great time showing him around the computer museum, eating some food (and helping the German beer industry) in one of the local restaurants and talking about Cocoon, open source in general and the price of German trains. On Monday Stefano was kind enough to give a presententation on Cocoon here at S&N and afterwards Carsten and Stefano dug into "blocks". The new new thing coming to Cocoon - "real soon" now. Or so they say. Actually, Stefano was lucky to get here. Shortly after he arrived, all train services in the region ground to a halt because of the storm.
