P@ SunglassesPatrick Chanezon's Sun external WeblogHumanizing Sun- April 27, 2005 Today John Hoffmann posted a picture of our award ceremony. The title of the award was Humanizing Sun. I like it, it's in line with my post about blogs and corporate culture.I could not attend, I'm in vacations these days (we, french people, take vacations very seriously:-). So I just added myself to the picture in Photoshop, in my "Sun Humanizer business casual attire". As I wrote before, Danese Cooper and Dave Edmondson are also missing on this pic.http://blogs.sun.com/pat/entry/humanizing_sun Quote: Bosworth's Web of Data- April 26, 2005 Bosworth's Web of Data: "Google's Adam Bosworth's keynote at the 2005 MySQL Users Conference was a call to audience members to "do for information what HTTP did for user interface."

The first part is an introduction about syndication history, formats and standards. I've given similar talks many times for the past 3 years and always had too many slides. This time I concentrated on a typology of syndication applications, and reduced my 10 slides on the topic in a single graphic. This typology is based on technical characteristics, as opposed to the typology used by business people or VCs to..http://blogs.sun.com/pat/entry/typology_of_syndication_applications Marsedit configuration for Roller- April 22, 2005 I've been asked this question a few times: here's my roller blog settings in Marsedithttp://blogs.sun.com/pat/entry/marsedit_configuration_for_roller ROME logo contest- April 12, 2005 Mark Woodman has been very active in the ROME project lately: with Amin he created the ROME Aqueduct subproject, to add a pluggable persistence layer to ROME (they already have a Prevayler implementation)More recently he organized the ROME logo contest, in order to get a cool logo for the growing number of projects that are powered by ROME.You can see the current submissions, and because ROME is all about syndication, we have a feed for the latest entries in the contest!For now I really like...http://blogs.sun.com/pat/entry/rome_logo_contest ROME 0.6 is out!- April 12, 2005 It was not an april fool's joke: we shipped ROME 0.6 beta on april 1st.

According to Will our virtual team won what is called at Sun the chairman's award (I don't know what it is exactly but it sounds good:-), for creating blogs.sun.com. The mail I received mentioned Will Snow, Simon Phipps, Dave Johnson, John Hoffmann, Tim Bray, and myself.
