I know that fewer and fewer of my questions get good answers in any forum nowadays. Part of that is the fact that I am better at a lot of this; part of it is the fact that Google lets me pick off the low-hanging fruit quickly. So, by the time I ask, I'm probably in a pretty obscure place.
Ditto here. By the time I end up posting a question to a mailing list I have googled, asked my friends, and generally made sure the question is pretty darn weird and obscure.
Tracy popped up with Asterisk *long* before anyone else I came in contact with said anything.
Indeed, I do tend to stay on top of things. Some people accuse me of being attracted to new and shiny things. But for nearly all of the new technologies which I have invested much time in a year ago I can show you that technology running in production today and saving my client or employer a ton of money and doing great work. Xen, AoE, asterisk, plone, LVM, python, subversion, you name it.
A couple people poked in about ZFS from Sun and the state of filesystems for Linux (personally, I think FreeBSD is getting way ahead of Linux here due to GEOM).
I am really hoping ZFS or some other new filesystem will come along soon. I may have to look at XFS in the meantime though.
Lan has been on a MythTV kick.
I'm afraid I will be building a MythTV sometime in the next year also.
We had a full presentation about community wireless which is effectively a mesh network.
Unfortunately I missed this one. Wish I could have been there. I'm hoping to see community wireless really takeoff with projects like Locustworld and their cool routing algorithms. I think we need some other technology like cheap WiMax or something before it will though. Something that doesn't require line of site would be even better.
So, what's newer that we're not keeping up with?
