Software development industry analysis by Larry O'Brien, the former editor of Software Development and Computer Language

I've heard from several people that permalinks to this site fail initially, but if you reload the page, they work (but, of course, most people just click away at the first 404). The site is hosted with Gearhost, with whom I'm generally pleased, but I don't have access to the actual OS, all I can do is work with web.config.

I'm running dasBlog, with which I'm generally happy, but the documentation sucks. There's no sign of this in the defect tracker on SourceForge. Naturally, I suspect some kind of caching issue.

I'm going to try to take a run at the problem today, but ony have a few hours to look at it.

Update: Grr... It's not a caching issue, it seems to be a defect / bug in dasBlog relating to session state. Haven't been able to get a debug version of dasBlog to compile and run (it's interacting with .NET 2.0 in a weird way). So much for my Sunday morning... The problem will have to wait.

Oh, by the way, the "technical refresh" of Office 12 Beta 1 is vastly improved. Outlook stability seems much better and I can actually understand at least some aspects of the "task-based" UI, of which my initial impression was utter shock and disapproval.
