Borland has a page about all the awards their outstanding SCM system has won: http://www.borland.com/starteam/awards/index.html.

I must say I think that's exactly what StarTeam deserves. Who knows, maybe they'll even pull a Darwin Award one day?

For some reason that is beyond me I have supposedly written 2 books:

Excel 2003 VBA Programmer's Reference

Professional Xdoclet 2.0

It is true that Ara Abrahamian, Erik Hatcher and I were thinking about writing a book about XDoclet a couple of years ago, but it never happened. But claiming that I have written a book about Excel VBA is just plain hilarious. (The Amazon page for this VBA book doesn't have this incorrect information).

Hmm wait a minute, can I claim royalties for this?

Today, all my email but a random 4 ones mysteriously disappeared from my Lotus Notes inbox. (No, the cat didn't eat it).

If you hate notes like me (no, i said HATE), feel free to let it all out right here, right now. In your own language if it makes you feel better. Like this.

Jon: Nah. Pass me the needle.
