Devleap.com, a site dedicated to Windows development for Italian developers, has added a new Longhorn section. Even though I can't read Italian, I like the idea of Longhorn articles in a language of romance. Read them with your sweetheart over a candle lit dinner. I know that's my plan. : )
Just so folks know, I feel no responsibility whatsoever to keep my postings on sellsbrothers.com to a specific topic. If I want to post my political views, I’ll do so. If that bothers you, I suggest you unsubscribe now as complaints about the subject matter for my posts will fall on deaf ears.
Also, there’s an undoc’d feature on my site that might interest folks. I have topic-specific RSS feeds that correspond to the categories of topics that I post. For example, the Longhorn DevCenter Editor’s Blog is fed from http://sellsbrothers.com/news/rss2.aspx?category=longhorn so that only Longhorn-specific topics show up on that page. If you’d like to form your own topic-specific RSS feed URL, I currently use the following categories:
Tools
Longhorn
Spout
Conference
Fun
Writing
Money
However, I post a lot of stuff that’s uncategorized and the only way to get that stuff is to subscribe to the main RSS feed.
For those asking, I have sent off a selection of our questions to Don. Eating dinner with him last night, he said that the first three answers were “yes,” “no” and “100.” When he gets all the answers together, I’ll post them here. : )
Robert Wlodarczyk, a software engineer on the Avalon testing team, has posted a most excellent sample showing off the wide variety of effects you can apply to images in Avalon. Very cool.
