Wow it's wet here. The creek is a torrent. Power just came back on (8AM Pacific), it was out all night, starting around 7:30PM. Nice to exist by candle and flash light. Apparently Jake lost power too, no word from him on the implementation of the Aggregator API. We had hoped to release it to Radio-Dev last night. Sorry about that. After that, we're going to do a demo app, something in JavaScript that runs in the browser that talks to the aggregator over XML-RPC. The idea is that you can create user interfaces in any language or environment that knows how to do XML-RPC. Anyway, lots of mail to read to catch up. [Scripting News] 4:21:49 PM

dynamicobjects spaces:"spaces is qualitatively different. It shares many features with standard email/PIM software like Evolution or Outlook. However, its abstractions over information management are designed to simplify organization and access to information and for collaboration from the ground up. Along with the simplicity of its user interface, these elements will not only make spaces a better PIM, they will also allow it to be an ideal tool for collaboration between individuals and small groups. Spaces runs on any platform that supports Java 2 (version 1.4 and above), which includes Macintosh, Windows, Linux, Solaris, and other UNIX variants." 9:46:42 AM
