Matt Asay and Steven Vaughan-Nichols are two of my favourite open source bloggers and this morning i read a post by Steven that Matt has joined Canonical as their COO. For me this is fantastic news as Matt has a wealth of open source business knowledge that would fit perfectly into the Canonical ecosystem. I think both Mark Shuttleworth and Matt Asay should be commended on taking this step, i personally think it's a partnership that will benefit the technology sector (and it's consumers) greatly. I will be watching canonical closely in the coming years.
Dust off the old PK3 files: Although it's over 10 years old, Quake 3 is still being played in offices around the world. Since id software has open sourced the Quake 3 engine; a community of developers has created an updated engine called ioquake3 and has recently also included a high resolution texture pack . ioquake3 is 100% compatable with Quake3 v1.32 so you will be able to join servers running the original Quake3 engine and vice versa. All you will need are the original pk3 files found in your Quake 3 baseq3 folder.
