TSN on NHL/PA negotiations: Done Deal!
TSN.ca: NHL, NHLPA reach tentative deal
The agreement, a complex document reportedly numbering more than 600 pages, came after the two sides staged marathon negotiating sessions for nine consecutive days. Since the 2004-05 NHL season was officially cancelled on Feb. 16, the league and union have met on 82 occasions, leading to an agreement that will revamp the way the entire professional hockey industry conducts its business."
It's about time! If the NHL and NHLPA don't ratify this, I fear Canadians will arm, mobilize, and forever lose their reputation as peaceful, friendly people.
Limi’s Plone presentation at EuroPython 2005
Plone.org: Slides from the Plone presentation at EuroPython 2005 available
I've been away from Plone for most of the year, busy with school and currently with Java-based projects. I didn't know much about Plone 2.1, except that it's another big, important release with serious goals. Good to see Limi says its "the first release that doesn't suck".
From what I read, at least in the areas Limi mentions improvements in, definitely the suck-factor will be way down in those areas, and the sweet-factor is way up.
I was also pleased to read Plone 2.1 is aiming for (or has already achieved) compatibility with Zope 2.8, which I feel is very important for Zope and Plone from a scalability and reliability standpoint.
When 2.1 is released, try it out. Hopefully the installers ship with Zope 2.8.
