I’m enjoying David Eaves’ blog and his top 10 personal blogging moments for 2007. So far he’s made it to #7, and given the date of this post, I think #1 may well be: “finishing my top 10 before midnight New Year’s Eve…just!” I like David’s writing in general, but these posts are important for [...]

I’m pretty excited about what’s happening this week. Since September Chris and I have been guiding 2 groups of students into the darker corners of the Mozilla development process.
