Just some stuff I wanted to write down and come back to months later.
Governance Notes
Just some notes looking at Apache Governance. No meaning here – just notes.
Playing With uPortal Notes
Just some notes trying to get uPortal and Sakai into the same Tomcat.
Tuning Virtual PC on My Mac
Notes on tuning Virtual PC on the Mac.
JSR-168 Portlet Week
This was a fun week. I went to UIUC on Monday, IU Tuesday – Thursday, and back to UIUC on Friday. I kind of took the week “off” from Sakai duties – I spent most of the days without mail or IM even open. I had this desired to write a JSR-168 portlet that was similar to my Visual Basic Sakai Desktop.
Chuck’s Video Process
This is as much for my own record of my process so I can refer back to it from time to time. This includes the steps that I use to capture, edit and post-process my videos. This is somewhat a tortuous process because things just don’t work perfectly well – especically between PC and Mac.
IMS Tool Interoperability Demo
In the rush to Sakai 2.0, two Sakai developers quietly laboured along with the world on their shoulders – Anthony Whyte and Lydia Li. A week after the cathartic Sakai 2.0 release, the eyes of the Learning Management world and the Sakai Project would be on Sheffield, UK watching to see which systems and applications would *really* interoperate at the IMS Tool Interoperability Demonstration.
Refelctions on the Sakai Meeting in Baltimore
What a wonderful meeting. We had 400 people – there are about 10 sites intending to bring up a significant pilot in September. I have a feeling that helping these people will be a major effort for us over the summer – perhaps more important than any development that we might do.
You Might Be A Redneck…
You might be a redneck if your son’s ATV is worth more than your car.
The Dr-chuck-mobile is a 1998 Olds Eighty Eight with 186000 miles on it and still running strong. Brent now has a Predator 90 that is worth more than Dad’s car.
One of the best indications of redneckness.
Witty Sayings
Those who strive to have it both ways end up with neither.
