iPhone Hacking

There have been a lot of articles out recently on how to hack your iPhone. The Inman recently posted instructions on how to add SSH to your phone, so that you can SFTP things to your phone.

I thought that it was time to post my little solution to this problem. When I started looking for my solution I had two requirements:

2. Rehacking had to be dead simple, since I like to update my phone

Another Habari Blog

Everyone give tinyau a round of applause! He relaunched his site yesterday, now powered by Habari. Welcome home man.

Or more correctly, the book it will become. After being asked again today when my book was coming out, I have decided to pull out the manuscript, dust it off and add a chapter or three about WP MU to it.

I am not sure when it will be published, or where really. I also don't know how it will be distributed. What I do know is that it will be done, and you will be able to buy it.

Look, more work for Chris!

Ohio Linux Fest 2007

I will be speaking at the Ohio Linux Fest, in Columbus Ohio this Septmeber. General admissions to the Fest is free, so if you are within driving distance, you should definately come.

This years Fest is special, and not because I am speaking. It was at OLF 2006 that Scott, Owen, Rich and I gathered around a table at Bucca de Beppo and birthed the project that would become the Habari Platform.

Quite a lot has happened in the year since that lunch. We have had two releases and the committer pool has grown from 4 to 14. It has been a great year for Habari... I can only imagine where we will be when OLF 2008 rolls around.

Very nice vodcast

Yeah, so I am back with another exciting 1 minute 27 seconds of me mouthing off. I know you are just all aflutter to hear/see it. So here you go:

Habari 0.2 DR

It has been a long time coming, but I am very proud to announce that the Habari Community is releasing our second major release, 0.2.

This new version contains tons of new stuff, and many contributions from the community. You can read the official announcement on the project site, and download the newest release at the usual place.

That is all. UPDATE: There is a file missing from the download, namely the referenced upgrade.sql. Until we can get the release archive updated, you can grab it here. Sorry for the confusion.
