Just a quick post pointing out that this worked for me:

Oh, and Happy New Year!

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

– Carl Sagan, 1934 – 1996

Recently, i’ve been writing a lot of code that makes use of multiple PEAR libraries.  MDB2 is one prime example of a library i’m making a lot of use of.  However, i’ve had to update pear and install mdb2 on every machine i’ve run code on.

Do you make use of any pear libraries, or even have access to an updated pear?  Would an open source project that depends on certain pear packages make you update your local PEAR, or choose another package without that dependency?

It’s a tough judgment call to make, but I think i’m going to leave it as a dependency in my packages.  The software benefits heavily from it’s inclusion. It depends on it.  Would you make a similar call?

I stumbled onto Fluid today, and it performs a task i’ve been looking for perfectly.  I now have a copy of trac sitting in my dock, instead of in a browser tab or in a bookmarks bar.  I made a large (512 x 512) png icon based on the svg icon file for Trac.  Hopefully no one from edgewall minds me putting it up here.  If there’s any problems, leave a comment or email me at warren [at] mesozen [dot] com and i’ll pull it down.

P.S. First post since August 2008? I’ve been too slack.  I’ll update this place soon.

I’ve moved jquery lightbox’s development from google code to github.com.  I’ve not yet closed down the google code repository, but i’m going to take time this week to clean it up, and direct everything to github.  I’ve had a nice boost of positive feedback in the last week or two, and have some features in mind for development.  I’ll keep progress posted here.

Cheers!
