go sox, go cms

i learned last night that my colleague, the editor of the french version of our site, has been imprisoned.

he's not still there, thankfully. (otherwise, how would he be able to update the site!)

i'm too tired to tell the story of how it happened.... another night. i promise.

we're preparing both our public and intranet sites for migration into CMS, so the french and spanish editors of our site are in town... and so the days have been filled to the brim with meetings: migration matrix planning, content strategies, stakeholder evaluations, and today basically an 8-hr demo of the new system (open source, an enterprise version of zope/plone). and of course we have to host our colleagues from brussels and barcelona properly, so evenings this week consist of dinner and drinks:


i enojyed a way hearty steak & ale pie last night at head of the river pub, oxford

tonight my boss had us all over for a relaxing meal at home....

julia's yummy carrot & coriander soup. served w/fresh breads, soft & hard cheeses, marinated artichokes and peppers, vine tomatos, and crisp bib "salad" (how my belgian co-worker refers to lettuce).

it's SO great to have colleagues that you can be friends with. i feel very lucky about that.

instead of the usual fare, tonight i'd like to serve up some content from other websites....

in fact, since i've got CMS on the brain tonight, and because the pennant race is heating up between the Red Sox and the Yankees, i shall simply highlight Seth Gottlieb's blogs. i've lost track of how i first found them/him but i discovered one of them in my list of "Favorites / Blog links". i don't know seth, but i am drawn to both his adoration of the Red Sox (and his comcomitant repudiation of all things Yankees), and his robust interest in CMS. he's in deep.

without further ado:
