Global collaboration

I gave the URL of this blog to a new friend, I might get a visitor!

... gotta tidy up, sweep the stairs, check the buckets* (we don't get too many folks coming 'round these parts)

I'm quite excited about the circumstances which might bring Baiju here.
(see "For surely there is an end ..." in "Recommended")

I've been wanting to learn how to use Zope 3, and Baiju is a Z3 developer who wrote an Z3 article which is becoming a book. I am doing a bit of editing for Baiju. My daughter is in school, and is teaching me the advantage of taking notes while reading, marking up the book. I am very grateful for the opportunity for my studying / note taking to benefit someone else.

Baiju's deep understanding of a powerful tool is something I want.

The fact that I've lived my life in an English speaking country gives me something to offer Baiju.

Cool.

Thanks,
Kent

So much to do

Howdy,

All my life I wanted a nickname, I finally got one from my
grandson. I now proudly answer to Gumpa.

My pursuits straddle many domains, which I hope to
chronicle here, at omh.

Currently::

- Zope3
- Leo
- SVG
- Vim
- Theory of, and creation of, documentation
- ReST
- Plone
- System administration
- Image management
- Too many political/economic topics to list here

You can't spell straddle without ADD

So, what else? add blogging to the list.
I do hope that this can provide a degree of accountability,
an opportunity to step back and help me focus.

We'll see.

Thanks,
Kent
