Fri Dec 01 18:18:08 2006 GMT: Alcatel-Lucent
Today was "Day 1" for Alcatel-Lucent and it's now also exactly one year since I came to Swindon.
Sun Nov 26 21:58:34 2006 GMT: newsfeed.cmeerw.net
I have now installed a news server on my virtual server, mainly to setup a news peering for the openwatcom.* hierarchy between news.openwatcom.org and the outside world (currently peering with news.albasani.net). There is now also some information about the openwatcom.* hierarchy on my new newsfeed page, but I guess I will be going through the process of properly establishing the openwatcom Usenet hierarchy according to the Usenet Hierarchy Administration FAQ.
Sat Nov 18 10:35:24 2006 GMT: Bush Approves Alcatel-Lucent Merger/Takeover
President Bush has now approved the Alcatel-Lucent merger/takeover, see this story @ IHT. Lucent has already issued a press release saying that the transaction is expected to complete on November 30, 2006.
According to this story @ Reuters close to 90 % of the headcount reductions will be in North America and Western Europe and Alcatel and Lucent "know precisely in every country which head will taken"...

My modifications to the contact page about 2 weeks ago have really helped, no more spam has been sent through the contact form. :-)
Sun Nov 12 12:21:30 2006 GMT: C++09
As noted in the State of C++ Evolution (after Portland 2006 Meeting), there is a strong desire by the C++ committee to deliver the next C++ Standard in 2009. The document also provides a good overview of what is likely to be included in the next standard.
The three biggest/most important additions are likely to be "Rvalue references" (which have already been incorporated into the latest working paper), "Concepts" and "Threads" (the latter two are still being worked on, but I think they are likely to make it into the next standard).
