Sloppy copy complete

I'm celebrating something of a milestone tonight: I've finished the first draft -- or "sloppy copy" as my eight year old calls it -- of RSS and Atom in Action. I've still got some serious work ahead, but the end is in sight. To celebrate, I'm going to bed before midnight.

Allen Gilliland joins the Roller team

Sun's Allen Gilliland has joined the Roller project. Allen is co-worker of mine on the Sun Web Platform Engineering (WPE) team. He designed, developed and contributed a sweet new metadata driven configuration system for Roller. After submitting codedrops for about a month, he was nominated and voted in last week. Welcome Allen!
