General
Jack Aboutboul interviewed[1] Eric Sandeen, "renown file system hacker, Red Hat Engineer and Fedora Contributor" about ext4, Linux filesystems and Fedora 11.
Bryan Clark created[2] a Jetpack[3] (the new extension framework for Firefox) addon to detect mid-air collisions in Bugzilla before hitting the submit button.
Udit Sharma collected[4] more than 70 Firefox-themed wallpapers from around the interwebs, for your viewing pleasure.
Peter Hutterer continued[5] his series on XI2, the new X11 Input API. "In this part, I will cover how to query and modify the device hierarchy." Sample code included.
Mel Chua has worked[6] to bring "open-source educational technology to the Philippines. The OLPC and Sugar projects serve as convenient starting places for this." Along the way, objections were raised, to which Mel posted[7] "Responses to objections on transparency" which can serve as a starting point for other projects experiencing similar issues.
