Ah, just noticed, Fedora Core 5 has been released. According to the release notes, there have been a few changes since Fedora Core 4.

Well, I’m back on the net 🙂 And, that’s the perfect lead into writing what I’ve been up to! Here’s a brief recap of last week: Saturday – went down to Philippa’s Sunday – met up with Foz, went to see the place the wedding reception’s going to be (as Foz is DJing and providing…

Just a quick note to let you know that I’ll be away for a few days. I’m actually writing this post from London – I’m staying with Phil and her parents! We’ve got a few wedding things to sort out. I’ll be back home on Thursday… I might not be able to update then, though,…
