Fortune's Brent Schlender on DaveNet: "He's an articulate guy, and has helped me understand everything from the dynamics of setting Internet standards to the tangled corporate psyche of Microsoft."

Bay Area Frontier User's Group meets tomorrow in San Francisco at 7PM. Some people have asked if I will be there, and I think it's best that I not be there. It's a user's group, and I'm the vendor. I think it's important for it to get going, and then if you want to invite me to come, I will happily attend. I think it's great that there's a Bay Area group forming!

NY Times reviews AOL.COM.

TechWeb: XML plays central role in retooling for E-commerce. If you want to know how XML is about money, check this out.

The first XML-RPC piece from February of this year. We've come a long way very fast.

Wired: Ballmer is the new Microsoft president.

Two recent job openings on the Class Ads site. Please use this service if you're looking for a job or have a position to fill, also for announcements that would be of interest to Scripting News readers.

Internet.com: Privacy flaw in Communicator 4.5?

MSNBC: Informix, Oracle will port to Linux.

ZDNet UK: Netscape to ship Linux server.

GCN: Navy 'Smart Ship' dead in the water.

Interactive Week: Road Runner Retools.

Yesterday's Goodwill Games photos.

NY Times: Y2K at home.

TidBITS: Sues spammer and chastizes Symantec for dropping the Mac version of VisualPage.

InfoWorld: Microsoft FrontPage 2000.

Here's a open proposal for an Linux-style open source project. The components would be an HTTP client-server, a simple XML parser, and a routing system that handles plug-ins. (Build it into Apache?)

The format could be our XML-RPC or one that's bridgeable to it. Here's a place where the Linux open source community could shine and lead the rest of the industry in a very visible way. Next step, port to BeOS, Solaris, Mac OS, Windows, the Java VM. Let's end the OS wars, build bridges between environments and across OSes.
