Open the fridge and feel the Breezy


Finally, it is October the 13th, which means that today the new release of Ubuntu Linux is there.
Version 5.10 codenamed Breezy Badger has finally arrived.


Yesterday some people of Ubuntu opened the Fridge, "Got something to report?" "Stick it on the fridge."

I am sorry for this short post, but my Ubuntu Linux CD has just finished burning, so I am heading for an install, I'll keep you informed.

(A picture of my fridge will follow when my sister returns from Rome and brings the digital camera back.)

OpenOffice.org into the water

I just read an announcement on OSNews.com linking to an article telling us that the OpenOffice.org team has decided to develope a port of their great office suite for Apple Mac OS X.
This is great news, now Macintosh users finally have a good alternative to Microsoft Office for the Mac and AppleWorks.
NeoOffice.org already took a shot at this goal with NeoOffice/J based on the old OpenOffice.org 1.x series, but seeing the OpenOffice.org developers giving a shot at it, is a bright perspective. If I understood it correctly it will look like the average ordinary Aqua application, which is a real improvement compared to NeoOffice/J which was only partially Aqua style.

Keep up the good work OOo.
