Thank God its Friday

We are back at shoik after a hard weeks work :-) , this being the penultimate week before the Realease of 2.0. The Good news is XMS has squeaked through the AV&V testing with a yellow grading.This is a landmark for Xora. We got through on the first attempt.
I have registered for the Global LBS Challenge

This is something we ought to ace. I hope we develop the killer location based application. I will be getting on with esri server on the weekend and try to get a hang of it. I have a few really vague ideas about what i need to do, but i feel as i got about developing a generic framework for Location based application , i should hit upon an idea of significance.

We are working to get some demo's for XMS , scheduled for the 18th. I am looking forward to its successful launch in Mid November. It definetely a step in the right direction from the Quality point of view.

I got some quality articles on GPS from sirf
I am excited about getting onto JDK 1.5 and all its fancy features.
