Should have been a straight forward process but quirks in the Darwin installer added around one (1) hour of twiddling to an otherwise simple process. Here is what I had to do to get it all working.

Download Darwin OSX install image. You can do this by visiting the Apple Open Source website that contains a […]

I just came from the Software Freedom Day 2007 celebration here at the National Computer Center (NCC). This celebration was organized by the Bluepoint Foundation. Here is a copy of my presentation materials on Open Source in Mobility. In this presentation, I gave an overview of the current mobile, open source and Internet ecosystems and […]

There are a lot of major news events in the world. In the Philippines, we have just finished our national elections which came our relatively peacefully compared to a few years back.

Carnegie Mellon West’s Software Management program is built on […]

It’s a contentious time for the open-source community. Microsoft has partnered with Novell, Oracle is angling for Red Hat’s […]

Yes guys. You heard me right. I just migrated from Mozilla Thunderbird TO Ximian Evolution. If you do a Google-search on this topic you will discover that most people are moving from Ximian Evolution TO Mozilla Thunderbird. I am moving the other way around. Why?

Tightly integrated with Calendaring Functionality. Mozilla Sunbird is not quite stable […]

ZDNet has this coverage of the second year anniversary of the mobile phone virus. It is interesting to note that mobile phone manufacturers and operating system makers are taking this threat seriously. In 1988, when the PC virus first appeared, operating system vendors did not give it much thought. Look what mess we have today.
