Ugo Cei’s Weblog
This is bullshit. You can tell it is bullshit by the fact that there is no unit declared for the Y axis and there is no credible source for all the data that is shown in this graph.
This is bullshit too. for exactly the same reasons.
Actually, the second is even more bullshit than the first. It’s been drawn by Vic Gundotra of Google and what does it show at the top of the curve of browser innovation? Google Chrome, how strange!
Tomorrow I will be presenting our CMIS Explorer Portlet during this week’s episode of Alfresco Tech Talk Live. This is going to be a fairly technical talk, with lots of code thrown in for the developers’ benefit. If you want to know more about CMIS and how to leverage it in your Java applications, you should definitely listen.
To attend, please visit http://alfresco.acrobat.com/live and enter the meeting room as a Guest. The talk will start at 12PM EST. I know, it’s 6PM on a Friday for us Central European folks, but I hope you won’t be all heading for the sea-side already.
You can find more information about TTL here.
Since it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything about job-related events, here’s a recap of a number of things that made—or should have made—the news in the last few weeks.
First of all, we made a big splash by being named EMEA JBoss Partner of the Year at the Red Hat Summit in Malta, last April. Quite an achievement, I’d say, fueled in a not so small part by the dedication of our colleagues Luca and Piergiorgio, who have been named committers for the JBoss Portal project.
We are also ramping up our contributions to various Open Source communities. Let me just mention our OpenSSO connector for Alfresco, a project started by Gustavo that has just gone officially live on our new “forge”: opensource.sourcesense.com.
Finally, we are investing a lot of effort into this CMIS stuff that has everybody in the content management world interested. I personally got my feet wet with a 2-day “plug fest” that was held at Day Software’s headquarters, in Basel last week. Watching all those CMS vendors getting together to test the interoperability of their systems has been invigorating. Too bad nobody from either Microsoft or Oracle was there, but I guess getting approval for travel these days is not easy, so we will probably see them at a similar event in the US soon.
We are also going to get involved a lot in the new Apache Chemistry project that has just started its incubation phase at Apache. Stay tuned!
