Red Hat Partner Community announced; of some semi-interest is the Red Hat Developer Connection – but at USD$299, I’ll be giving that a pass. We definitely need the Fedora Partner Community program or something, to keep people happier.
Thursday was the Red Hat/Fedora SIG. Mike Barnes did a good job giving us an intro to re-building stuff on the Alpha platform… They used a RH7.x bootstrap, but FC2 is mostly there. Pity many didn’t show up for the talk – maybe it was the new location. But it definitely was interesting.
SpentWasted much time with Windows XP’s cock-up over some files that were encrypted, thanks to their Encrypting File System, for someone who has some work and Kodak moments on disk (and no backups). After Windows forces you to reinstall itself because of various issues, it takes along with it its keys when you do a format, and there is no other way to recover said files. Sharing it, using Knoppix to copy it, etc… all useless. Anyone know of any workarounds?
Couldn’t sleep much, that’s never a good sign. Brazillian F1 today, last race for Coulthard to drive a McLaren.. Sad, sad. Good one for Kimi, hopefully the synergy with Montoya goes on thru next year.
