Bits on the rampage: Eric Shepherd's blog. The Sheppy Report: September 12, 2014. You may notice that I’m posting this on Monday instead of Friday (despite what the title says). Last week was a bit of a mess; I had a little bit of a surprise on Wednesday that involved my being taken to the hospital by ambulance (no lights and siren — it wasn’t that. Big a surprise), and that kept me away from work for most of the rest of the week. On to the important stuff! What I did this week. Keyword to bug 1064843.

Bits on the rampage: Eric Shepherd's blog. The Sheppy Report: September 26, 2014. I can’t believe another week has already gone by. This is that time of the year where time starts to scream along toward the holidays at a frantic pace. What I did this week. I’ve continued working heavily on the server-side sample component system. Implemented the startup script support, so that each sample component can start background services and the like as needed. To track landing of this class. Now that the old.

Bits on the rampage: Eric Shepherd's blog. My kingdom for calendar sync that works. Today, I missed that a meeting that I run. Was about to start, because while all the other attendees knew about it, it wasn’t on my calendar for this week. It’s a biweekly meeting, and my calendars show it as happening next week.
