After our court-mandated trip to a padded cell for two weeks road trip to Oregon, we're back! Big thanks to Sean, Kevin, and Chris for covering while we were slacking off. I'm sure they did a great job, but I have to admit I didn't read any newsletters - or tech stuff - while out. Did I miss anything? Also, apologies in advance if I repeat any news items they've already covered. Just a reminder to our Canadian readers: please go and vote on Monday. And for our non-Canadian readers, feel free to come to Canada and attempt to vote. I could use a "Tech site attempts electoral fraud" news story later in the week. ;P TTFN - Kent Advertisements Love JIRA, Bitbucket, Confluence, or HipChat?
