Sun HQ
August 1, 2006 General Comments Off on Sun HQ
Flew down to San Francisco on Saturday afternoon, after pulling an Indiana Jones at the boarding gate! Got hooked up with a hire car, with Phil and myself heading down south to visit a Fry’s store down in Freemont. Dropped Phil off at the train station for him to head back up into San Francisco, and I headed for Palo Alto.
Palo Alto has always been quite a nice place to stroll around – it has that village feel, though you often feel like you’re on the set of Sideways at times. This week I’m visiting the Sun HQ in Menlo Park – it’s been great to catch up with people like Steve, Bonnie, Bev and Artem, and looking forward to meeting some of the other people in the maze that I’m constantly getting lost in.
Have started working on the latest ARC case for bringing GNOME 2.16 into Solaris Nevada – not exciting stuff in itself, but being able to integrate a new desktop a short time after its released ala Ubuntu is motivating to me at least.
