		<title>Swanky Codethink offices</title>
		<description><![CDATA[More than a year ago now Codethink moved to a new location in central Manchester. Its become a comfy home, but I don&#8217;t think we have ever introduced people. So without further ado here are some pictures of the &#8216;new&#8217; Codethink offices. I&#8217;ll hand out a prize of 20p and a curly-wurly to the first [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tracker RDF database performance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have spent time on-and-off the past week looking at the performance of the Tracker RDF database. Tracker, I believe, started out as a desktop search tool for Gnome. I never used it in this incarnation, and it has only come to my attention  since version 0.7, when the developers implemented a general purpose RDF [...]]]></description>

		<title>Funding Gnome a11y</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As many of you may have heard, from blogs by Eitan, Mike and Joanie, as well as an e-mail to the gnome-foundation-lists by Fernando, the Gnome a11y community is having a tough time. I have been interacting with the a11y community for over two years now, and in that time the funding situation has never [...]]]></description>

		<title>Will &#8216;superphones&#8217; make us more productive?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every tech company under the sun seems to be pushing new variants of the computer experience on us at CES this year. Smartbooks, Tablets, E-Readers, Smartphones, Netbooks and Notebooks, by the end of 2010 there will cease to be a segmented computing market and consumers are going to have a continuous spectrum to choose from.

		<title>Codethink at ELCE 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Rob and I took a trip to Grenoble this week for the Embedded Linux Conference Europe meeting. All-in-all a very good couple of days for us. We showed off our research project (daily-catchup) in the demo room on Friday afternoon and got to attend some fantastic talks. Travelling wasn&#8217;t so much fun though. Somehow we [...]]]></description>

		<title>AT-SPI2 First release</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Its been a long time coming, but about a fortnight ago we did the first release of AT-SPI2, the D-Bus port of our Linux accessibility framework. As mentioned in the notes the release had a warning label. &#8216;DANGER: Development release &#8211; may cause psychological harm&#8217; Overall though I&#8217;ve been very pleased with the work we&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>File Organization &amp; Gnome 3.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thank-you to Felix Kaser for pointing out Mark Shuttleworth&#8217;s interview with derStandard.at. It was an incredibly interesting read. While at the GCDS this year I made many guesses about the Ubuntu opinion on Gnome Shell and the plans for 3.0. They, as the largest distributor of a consumer linux desktop, have the most to lose or gain from the awesome [...]]]></description>

		<title>Accessibility 3.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week I attended a week-long meeting at the Sun offices in Dublin. The purpose of the trip was to hammer out issues with the D-Bus AT-SPI port, so that everyone can feel more confident about its readiness for Gnome 3.0. What a great week we ended up having. I should first say thanks to [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Do-ifying&#8217; Gtk (and other applications)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many thanks to racarr for posting about this earlier today.  I had seen posts on the &#8216;Do-ifying&#8217; of GTK but they had passed me by. &#8216;Do-ifying&#8217; applications is a fantastic idea. We shouldn&#8217;t limit ourselves to GTK apps though. The bit that caught my interest was that racarr was thinking of exposing a UI heirarchy [...]]]></description>
