I'll always have a soft-spot for MT. I can still vividly remember Anil Dash copying MT binaries onto six USB thumb drives at a time when preparing for a big conference. Fun times!

And here's to Six Apart KK and the vibrant community that keeps MT (and Melody) going strong!

 

Am I the only one that finds it odd that Say Media fedex'd me a notice that Kevin Sladeck is selling 200k shares?

I was assuming my stock was only useful as a fond memory.

Oh and TIL that secondmarket.com has social networking features, who knew!

At long last... Guava 10.0 has been released!

It's been a long wait since 9 (almost six months!), but I think you won't be disappointed; there's tons of new stuff in here. CacheBuilder/Cache, EventBus, Range and ContiguousSet, Optional, UnsignedLongs, MapJoiner and MapSplitter, the completion of Equivalence, many more new classes, dozens of new methods, and hundreds of smaller improvements scattered all over.

If this comes as good news to you, please join me in thanking the team:Charles Fry (release-master this time, took MANY bullets for us), Chris Povirk Kurt Alfred Kluever and our summer Deranged Intern Louis Wasserman. And as always, the number of other Googlers (and one non-Googler!) who contributed is too many to even list.

Please upgrade, and please help us spread the word!

Now back to work on 11.0 I go. :-)
