CVS Commit + Weblog = Changeblog – yeah, Brad has a point though; I actually had a conversation w/ him about how they did character-based diffing in LJ at last year’s SXSW. Note, that LJ also has per-post access restriction; interestingly enough, I’ve noticed a couple of people moving off of LJ despite its features. Part of the garden wall syndrome? Or just a desire to settle on one’s own patch of the noosphere?
Shibboleth and InCommon: Making Secure Collaboration a Reality [PDF] – good summary presentation; mostly of my thoughts on federated delegation has been strongly informed by my participation in Internet2 [MACE/WebISO] and NMI discussion and initiatives; specific tech: Shib, SAML, XACML (implementation-wise, GPG + mod_pubsub may be more realistic for bubblegum+duct tape bootstrapping, personally, I’m not complete comfortable tossing my hat in w/ SourceID, but that may be a personal bias. All roads lead to Johannesburg…)

Wesley Clark isn’t going to take shit from Fox News [12MiB WMV] – and Fox News can’t cut him off because he’s everything they pay lip service to. If there’s one good thing about Clark’s lack of previous political ties, and his background, it’s that it should really resonate w/ the Fox demographic. Will it help them realize how ‘no-spin’ Fox’s coverage really is? I dunno, maybe it doens’t need to.
