So, RazorIRC

No that isn’t from sloganizer, I promise.

I’m having second thoughts about releasing a C# version of RazorIRC, it doesn’t make sense to cause more work for myself…  I’m thinking about just starting it in C/C++ now instead of porting it at the end of the year, which in itself would be a huge task.

What does this mean for the summer preview?
It means it isn’t happening.  Actually it could happen, but not likely to.

The other reason why I’m considering C/C++ is because it should make it easier to port to the iPhone, one of my primary goals after I get threw with a released desktop client.  The other thing is, it’ll also mean Edge is already in C/C++ and thus clients can be rapidly produced for Mac OS X and Linux along with the initial Windows version.

The shizznit

Yes these titles are completely random.

So I’m going to post the current plan or “roadmap” for RazorIRC here first instead of over at the wiki.

So on with it!
I’m going to release a public alpha / beta sometime this summer, along with the public alpha / beta of RazorIRC I’ll be launching the addons database along with both the online and offline tools to help addon developers get their bearings.   Since where going to be using an already existing language for the addons I’m pretty sure there will be no compatibility issues between RazorIRC versions, the issues may come from our XML GUI language that I plan on implementing for the addons to make like easier, it’ll loosely be based around Microsoft’s XAML language.

Ugh…

Ugh…  I hate working on websites.  Yesterday I registered a new domain name for RazorIRC, it’s razorirc.com.  I’m starting work on the website for RazorIRC, it’s going to be written in Ruby on Rails, that’ll be fun…

Designing Def-Defying is going pretty well.  I’m just doing a basic design until he gets me the logo.

So…

So… I started working for a landscaping company last month, it’s only a winter job at the moment.  I plan on working for them during the spring / summer too.  I’m hopefully going out this weekend with her, hopefully nothing comes up…

So… now onto the projects.

First off, haven’t made much progress on Def-Defying’s website, kind of been busy on some other things, plus I’m doing it for free, so… yea…

Ubuntu 8.04, eBay and life

Ubuntu 8.04 was released today… Big woo, downloading it now. Going to be updating my test server to it. Also going to update my Dual boot.

I’m planning on bidding on a MacBook on eBay this weekend… The only problem is it has a minor defect, the casing is cracked… oh well, and I can always replace that.

Life, life sucks, what’s new there?
