In this episode, we start out talking about Puppet (whose patron company, Reductive Labs is a RedMonk client). I then re-cap the Our Bodies exhibit Kim and saw, we move onto a short discussion of using Rational Tools from Charles’ consulting days (I’ll be at RSDC next week). We wrap up with Charles’ growing distaste for Ajax, but his lack of anything else to use.

jobs for Cote and Charles
Cote:
-see if you can get Dan Ingalls on RIA weekly, talking about the Lively Kernel. Ajax is dead (if Charles has had enough, then it must be so) . Ajax is dead, long live Ajax (of the lively, html’less kind). Get Charles on the show too -I mean, it’s only Dan freakin Ingalls!
-also RIA weekly. If you haven’t already -please organise a reverse-ajax/comet show. Maybe you could line up Joe Walker (who does this DWR thing -and now has Tibco sponsorship). Definitely have Charles on that show -he can repeat the “it’s backwards day” line he used re X-windows servers.
Charles:
1. please learn Scala at your earliest conveniance
2. after lunch, please take the Lively Kernel apart -then put it together again using Rhino and apache Batik
3. before you go home -release freestyle “as is, where is”
right -that should be enough to go on with
respectfully yours..

If enough ppl watch the screencast I recorded almost a year ago, and seem to think it’s worth releasing, I will make freestyle available as an open source project.

Dan Ingalls was recently interviewed on the latest FLOSS Weekly (part of the TWiT network).
Stella is for upscale hipster kids who are too cool (and/or ahead of the curve) for PBR.
And, as you mentioned, shitfaced north sea oil platform workers on the Virgin train going home to Newcastle on Tyne
