Catching up

Life is feeling a bit less hectic. The product I've been working on for the last few months, since April to be precise, has passed "RTM" (Release to Manufacturing). So the development team, myself included, is winding down a bit. Nothing but paperwork from now to GA at the end of the month.

Since RTM fell so close to the Thanksgiving holiday most people are extending that to a week or more and nobody is getting wound up to tackle the next release (in the software business the reward for getting a product out the door is to get the chance to get the next product out the door).

So the calm between storms has let me catch up a bit on reading and research. And some blog posting.
