Udell speaks: Here are the slides from Jon Udell's keynote at OSCOM from today. Well worth a read. He quotes: Brent's Law of CMS URLs: the more expensive the CMS, the crappier the URLs

Ants at the gate: Forget Barbarians, we have been invaded by ants. I put down baking powder accross their path..but will it help..only time will tell. Email me any other tips!! Update: Looks like the baking powder worked. Thanks to Bertrand and Sylvain who emailed additional suggestions: Petrol and lemon juice.

Busy day: Really busy today preparing a customer presentation for next week. Should be quite interesting as we want to show that Cocoon and other open source technologies can be used to build an XML based online-shop-system that can stand up with the "big ones". True to the spirit we hope that our tactic of "well we don't have a finished system - but hey look what Cocoon and open source will get you" will win this large company over. Perhaps I should go in wearing a pirate T-shirt.
