Extreme Tuesday was fun last night, although I was slightly concerned that spontaneous implosion was possible with the amount of heavyweight open-sourcerers (I like that mis-spelling :) ) present.

Good to chat to James Strachan about Maven - I think I'll be looking at that more!

Life in Mozilla-land continues with me using the Moz Mail Client. All in all it seems OK - some of the setup was a bit fiddly (for IMAP at least - it seemed to find a load of folders I don't care about...) and it doesn't seem to scan all my IMAP folders for new messages (meaning I have to manually scan all of them to see if they are updated), but apart from that its really nice.

One of the things I like is that the Moz UI is certainly on the same lines as Mac OS X - aesthetically pleasing, and works well.

I also tried out the Mozilla Calendar (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/), but unfortunately it doesn't seem to have the ability to work with a server. What I'm really looking for is a open-standard server-hostable calendar that can be manipulated either via the web or a thick client. Even better, to be able to access other people's calendars via the same interface would be excellent (so getting an open, web-based, M$ Outlook effectively)

Unfortunately the 'WYSIWYG' pane in radio doesn't work in Mozilla, so I'm actually typing this post in Exploder. But life would be boring if it was perfect. :)
