these are a few of my favorite things

This week saw the release of a few of my favorite things:

Firefox 2 was released. I’m a bit sad about this one. This is one of the first releases where I didn’t have anything to do with it. No bug fixes, no code, and not involved in the release process. But these guys are doing a bang-up job, so I can’t complain. I’ve been running it all week on my machine and I’m very happy with it. No crashes, nice new functionality with a continuation of the clean look we’ve come to expect. Go team!

Fedora Core 6 was released. The work of a huge number of people inside of Red Hat and a standing army of contributors from the outside world who all worked together to produce something really great. It’s stable, has some wonderful new functionality and really came together at the end.

It was a fun week. Especially for the mirrors. (Sorry, Mike.)
