Colin's Journal

A day of work well done, a sore ear. An afternoon of talking for hours on end, hashing out opinions and theories.

Hello?  Ah John you are there, do you know if Tim is joining us?
...
Sorry I can't hear you!  Are you on speaker?
...
How do we avoid the question of xxx coming up?
...
[xyz has left the call]
...
What are the customer's expectations?
...
I don't agree, they don't want that kind of detail...
...
[xyz has joined the call]
...
I sent an email out yesterday which described what that will take... 
...
OK we'll take that offline.  
...
Dave are you still there?
...
Sorry I've got another call coming up, send me an email...

LiveJournal now produces RSS that contains images! This is great news, and something I had been hoping would be added.

The size of the images did bring out a visual bug in my aggregator’s display template/css which I’ve now fixed. I’m going to hold off issuing a new version though until some more time has passed so that I can include other bug fixes.

Live journal changing RSS format from 0.91 to 2.0 also meant all articles currently in the feed were flagged as new, which is unfortunate. There’s no easy way around the problem though, handling it would require schema changes and more complex logic than seems worth while.
