I’ve been using the browser Firefox for a long time – since the earliest days of Phoenix and Firebird.
I am stunned that Firefox has been downloaded over fifty million times – this is an incredible achievement – the whole Firefox team deserves credit.
My own involvement with Firefox has been tiny. I’ve submitted one defect and a fix; I’ve recommended the browser to friends, colleagues and family; I’ve pushed for Novell Linux Desktop to use Firefox over Epiphany; I mandated the Firefox configuration policies inside ZENworks 7 Linux Management.

I got my copy of the UK edition of the latest New Order album “Waiting for the Sirens Call” a few days ago. Mmmm – it’s good.
Lots of echos of the ‘older New Order sound’ ; the Peter Hook bass is very strong in the mix. Many songs sound have hints of New Order of the late 80’s and early 90’s.
I’m off to Chicago next week to see New Order live.

Wow – it’s been hectic – but the combined teams in Provo,UT and Lebanon, NH really cranked and turned this one around.
Novell today announced details of the availability of the new ZENworks Asset Management product.

A working title for a self-help book on ZENworks
There are some great resources around for ZENworks administrators – from the online documentation, the community based CoolSolutions to Ron Tanners incredible Administrators Guide.
What is really missing is a short guide that describes the business and technology change that can take place with a coherent systems management project; the steps that should be taken; the stakeholders in an organisation; the thought processes behind the technology – all the moving parts that the other books don’t cover.
I spent time in Toronto this week at LinuxWorld – and spent time with Mark Schouls – we both have consulting backgrounds – and both saw the need for such a book.
Who knows – it might yet get written …
