Sometimes I get lost in the Web, just following links after link for new ideas, following a vague plan of action, multiplying tabs and relying on browser’s session restore capabilities and tab and bookmark syncing.
Tonight, after a full day of work, the gym, the dinner and some chatting with my lovely wife, I had one of this session on the sofa (thanks to netbook magic, the fully working Samsung NC10 with F12 and about 4hrs battery life..).
Anyway, I discovered some interesting projects. the first is a Django powered software forge (think sourceforge plus trac): basie is a MIT licensed software which is growing up from an academic world, and I shall admit to find it intriguing, and an interesting candidate to the trac position.
Next one is the Python Buildhaus Project, which goal is to setup a build system for Python packages against multiple architectures / OSes / python environments: infrastructure will be provided by the Snakebite project, which goal is to make available as many platforms as possible to test open source software builds.
Finally, a nice old blog entry regarding TDD AntiPatterns.
Lot of stuff. Will keep an eye on those (and perhaps contribute to basie, who knows…).
