| X Prize Won | |
|---|---|
|
Date: 7/10/2004 | Congratulations to the Scaled Composites Team on winning the 10 million USD X Prize by rocketing to the edge of space twice within 2 weeks. I've been watching this race with great interest for over a year, especially the Armadillo Aerospace team, and it's fantastic that private enterprise is finally make serious steps to take access to space seriously. (And hopefully leave the incumbant governments in their wake) |

| PopOverHttp | |
|---|---|
|
Date: 28/9/2004 | We've just finished the first round of testing for our new endevour, and now we need beta testers!
Presenting: PopOverHttp.com. PopOverHttp is a protocol that encodes a POP connection over the web so that users that can't connect directly to a POP server can get their mail via a web proxy. Although that isn't the only reason you'd use PopOverHttp, because on top of running through web proxies it's much faster than regular POP because it has far less latency. Anyway this new site is currently accepting new accounts for local addresses (i.e. user@popoverhttp.com) and may in the future offer access to external POP accounts as well. But at least not yet. Pricing is yet to be announced, but the plan is to cover costs. Beta testers get a free account for at least 12 months. Also I'm sure there are going to be issues so let us know how things go. |

| Scribe Translations | |
|---|---|
|
Date: 21/9/2004 | I just thought I'd mention this ongoing offer to everyone, as most people wouldn't know about it. If anyone does a significant amount of translation work for Scribe I give them a license for InScribe for free, as a thankyou for all the effort you put in.
If your interested in doing translation work I've put together some information to help. Finally, what constitutes a "significant amount"? you ask... well either a new language, or an update of a translation that has fallen into disrepair (i.e. one of: Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, French or Italian). |

| Scribe And Attachments | |
|---|---|
|
Date: 9/9/2004 | There is only one thing I'd really like to fix for the next release of Scribe. Basically some attachments disappear between downloading the message and being displayed in the user interface. I've personally never seen this but it seems to be happening to other people. Anyway if YOU have seen this and your keeping your mail on the server then I'd be interested in getting your help. In this forum post we are discussing the problem and I've left instructions for extracting the problem email in encoded form. This would help me a great deal if I could get an example of a message that breaks Scribe's MIME decoder.
So that I can fix it and we can all be smuggly assured that are attachments are safe again. :) |

Date: 6/9/2004 | Over the weekend we had a bit of a hail storm, it coated everything in a layer of ice. Fortunately not large enough to dint all the cars, but lots of fun for the kids.
