A pleasant morning phone call with @carlopiana@status.piana.eu. Timezones make me want to go back to the East Coast, though.

Finally got a chance to publish what I did with MPL to thank our contribs: http://tieguy.org/?p=2274

Luis Villa Evan Prodromou

Agreed, it is excellent. Will write response (with OSI hat on) soon.

Hosting the OSI face-to-face board meeting at GT's SF office. Good to be in touch; next time I probably won't host, though. :)

Trying to figure out git/gitorious. Completely stymied.

Consumption of "fun" PDFs like http://identi.ca/url/73879671 has dropped off a cliff since my tablet died :(

Luis Villa Mike Linksvayer

deliberately re'denting all your blog posts?

Luis Villa

Updated the OSI history page - shorter, more links, more up-to-date. Further edits/suggestions welcome. http://opensource.org/history

Is there really no widely used (crowdsourced?) multi-browser equivalent to http://mzl.la/MnRK4j (howto for turning off cookies)?

Luis Villa Christopher Allan Webber

@cwebber awesome, thanks for pointing that out.

Because in a world with a vast surplus of content, one of the easiest ways to get your "new" content noticed is to tie it to old content.

Luis Villa Andre Klapper

@andreklapper (also, stock bugzilla looks very nice these days!)

Luis Villa Andre Klapper

@andreklapper I am pretty sure I cannot ask that bug to be fixed to resolve my particular situation ;)

@digitante Disclaimer: I haven't had time to read it, only many, many discussions of it. :)

Luis Villa Greg Grossmeier

In that case: readers of !debt should definitely all read http://identi.ca/url/73392804 :)

Luis Villa Terry Hancock

A big theme of Debt is that debt used to be a soft constraint (btw you and friends) but is now hard (b/c it is btw you and a bank or state).

Luis Villa Terry Hancock

I think Debt's point is that debts (among many other things) constrain the alleged freedom of even the most "independent" contractors.

(for longer than 140 char comments, I definitely recommend http://identi.ca/url/73392804 )

Luis Villa Greg Grossmeier

Can you really talk usefully about a book like that in 140 characters? I've never grokked groups, but this seems particularly inapt?

Luis Villa Karl Fogel

I'd be interested in hearing your response to Debt. I'd planned to read it, but Crooked Timber's symposium persuaded me otherwise.
