In an interesting bit of news (via DrunkenBlog) it appears that Google has hired Ben Goodger, one of the lead developers on Firefox.
As of January 10, 2005, my source of income changed from The Mozilla Foundation to Google, Inc. of Mountain View, California. My role with Firefox and the Mozilla project will remain largely unchanged, I will continue doing much the same work as I have described above — with the new goal of successful 1.1, 1.5 and 2.0 releases. I remain devoted full-time to the advancement of Firefox, the Mozilla platform and web browsing in general.
Time to restart the GoogleBrowser rumours again? Given how much you can customise Firefox/Mozilla through the use of XUL, I wouldn’t be surprised if Google has something much bigger than just a branded browser up it’s sleeve. We just haven’t worked out what it is yet. Front end to the GoogleGrid perhaps?
Bit different round here isn’t it?
This is what’s happening. The site has been upgraded to Drupal 4.5.2 (really nice release), and I’ve also taken the time to start on a new theme, hence the whiteness. I’ve taken it right back to basics and I’ll be adding in more as I work out what direction I want to take it.
I actually quite like this minimalist look, but I do need to sort out links and headers. The navigation isn’t too clear right now.
I’ve also killed all the content that’s isn’t blog related for the time being. Until I get the architecture and main navigation nailed, photos are now over at Flickr and everything else will be coming back shortly.
Title says it all really. Drupal 4.5 has been released, and drupal.org gets a makeover.
New Features in 4.5 include:
Here’s more information on the new drupal.org theme by Steven Wittens. Very nice it is too. Although 2004 is turning into the year of the rounded corners.
Polytechnic will get upgraded when I find the time. Not likely to happen soon though, client work pays the bills (actually, my employer does, but you know what I mean).
Upgraded
Drupal 4.6.1 upgrade done, spam filters in place, comments open. Let the fun begin.
