Two weeks without an update seems like a very long time. I assure you I am still alive. As I have indicated in the past I am building a new home, and we have been in the process of selling the existing home and moving into an apartment while the new home is built. About the only non-essential activity I have done in the past two weeks is convert my personal site over to DotNetNuke 3. Overall I'm pretty happy with DNN but I do have a couple of minor issues. For each module, there seems to be 8 different Settings links such as "Configuration", "Settings", "Manage". I installed the forum/blog with no issue but "Gallery" blows up, to be fair these are listed as Beta. Maybe my photos will just be an iframe containing Flickr anyway.
Until at least this week Friday (7/15/2005) I have to continue to focus only on essential activities. Explosions, crypto, CompactFramework 2, and other promised goodies have to wait.
