        <![CDATA[<p>Finally, three months after my <a href="http://www.beaufour.dk/blog/2007/10/moving-to-movab.html">upgrade to Movable Type 4</a>, I now have category RSS feeds. I find it really odd that it is not a default option in the <a href="http://www.movabletype.org/">Movable Type</a> installation&#8230; but there you go. I used <a href="http://www.tildemark.com/blogging/category-rss-with-movable-type-4.html">these instructions</a>.</p>

<p>The feed links are in the right hand side of the <a href="http://beaufour.dk/blog">main page of my blog</a>, so the Mozilla category feed can be found <a href="http://www.beaufour.dk/blog/mozilla/atom.xml">here</a>.</p>

<p>This also means that I&#8217;ll request a change <a href="http://planet.mozilla.org">Planet Mozilla</a> to only subscribe to the mozilla category, so I&#8217;ll spam the Planet less if I ever get around to some more regular blogging again. So subscribe to the <a href="http://beaufour.dk/blog/atom.xml">main link</a> if you want &#8220;all&#8221; my blog entries.</p>

<p>I also upgraded to Movable Type 4.1 while I was at it :)</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>Finally I can tell a bit more about what I&#8217;ve actually been doing the last couple of months since leaving Spain, and of all places, moved to The Netherlands. The project I am working on is called: <a href="http://www.joost.com/">The Venice Project</a> which is now a little less stealthy :-) So we can actually tell a bit about what we do.</p>

<p>Basically we are trying to revolutionize how you watch TV. You should be able to watch tv where and when you want to, and see TV that actually interests you. This includes using/extending the features you already know from &#8220;Web 2.0&#8221;, f.x. creating and using community-based information &#8212; sounds a bit like marketing mumbo jumbo, but it just my poor way of describing something which you have to see for yourself, and which is still in the making :-)  The project is started by guys with a background in <a href="http://www.skype.com">Skype</a> who have tried doing these forms of &#8220;disruptive things&#8221; before, including <a href="http://www.janusfriis.net/">Janus</a> and <a href="http://about.skype.com/executiveteam/niklaszennstrom/">Niklas</a>.</p>

<p>From a more technological point of view, we deliver TV to you using P2P and the client software itself is based on XULRunner. We use tons of open source software, and a lot of W3C technologies. We&#8217;ll target the same main platforms as XULRunner: Windows, Mac and Linux. It is pretty cool to see the Mozilla platform used in this new way, and it is quite an adventure being part of it.</p>

<p>I&#8217;ll try to blog a bit more about this as we progress.</p>

<p>Want more? :-) Watch <a href="http://www.joost.com/blog">our blog</a> and <a href="http://www.joost.com/apply.html">sign up</a> as a beta tester.</p>

<p><strike>There are some &#8220;challenges&#8221; in using <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org">addons.mozilla.org</a>, so right now Linux users will get this message: &#8220;Mozilla XForms is not available for Linux&#8221;. That&#8217;s not true, and version 0.5 can still be downloaded for <a href="http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/extensions/mozilla_xforms/mozilla_xforms-0.5-fx+mz+zm-linux.xpi">Linux </a> and <a href="http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/extensions/mozilla_xforms/mozilla_xforms-0.5-fx+mz+zm-macosx.xpi">Mac</a>.</p>

<p>Soon 0.6 should be available for Linux too, and we&#8217;ll post an official announcement, etc.</strike></p>

<p><b>Updated:</b> Due to quick action from #amo (thanks!), the above was only true or a short while, and there&#8217;s both a Linux and Windows version available from there. Announcement to follow soon. </p>

        <![CDATA[<p>Better late than never:</p>

<p>Tomorrow, I&#8217;ll give a talk about Firefox and XForms at <a href="http://www.gpul.org/jornadasweb06/">I Jornada de Tecnologias Web y Software Libre</a> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Coru%C3%B1a">La Coruña</a>, Spain.  And no, my Spanish has still not improved enough to do the talk in Spanish, so it will be in English :-)</p>

<p>Entrance is free, so feel free to show up. I&#8217;m not sure whether inscription is necessary though.</p>
