Why am I allowed two?
ApacheCon is just a few weeks away now. If you'd like to learn all that there is to know about the Apache Web Server, you should come to my two-day training class, which I'm teaching with Bill Rowe and Jim Jagielski, from Covalent. And New Orleans is just a great city, too.
Hope to see you there.
I found out today that Dion Gillard is having some rather serious medical problems. I've thought quite often lately about the aging of the population of the Apache Software Foundation. We're not 21 any more, although there's a steady supply of new participants that arrive for the party every day.
Dion has been around since almost the beginning, having been part of the Jakarta project since it started. I've only met him a few times, although I'm sure we've attended the same conferences for years.
Dion, our prayers are with you as you struggle against this. As you said, positive attitude is everything, and, hey, you helped make Jakarta happen, so you're practically guaranteed to succeed! :-)
Registration is open for ApacheCon in New Orleans. I'll be giving a two-day training class on the Apache Web Server along with Jim Jagielski. Should be a lot of fun. You should come.
Hey, look, Apache's got a new website.
Shane has encouraged us to send in our papers for ApacheCon New Orleans, so I've submitted a bunch of them.
I'm looking forward to going to New Orleans again. It's been about 15 years since I've been there, and I thoroughly enjoyed it then.
