Too many things happened since I have written the previous post. First, and most important, I became a dad. That is really great feeling, but also a great responsibility.
In addition I'm changing my sphere of work from native C++ development to Java EE. Yep, I got tired a bit of all that Windows stuff. I just want to use my favorite OS, the best open source tools. And I won't have any surprises from a proprietary piece of crap which works not in the way it is documented. Hello patterns, high-level design and other candy. The key moment in this decision was an invite to GoogleWave. I was stunt by the cutting-edge web technologies. So, native development will only be for state of the art, and primarily that will be bug fixes to the free software I use.
Btw, I have changed my Linux distribution of choice. I'm almost year on Fedora and it is a subject of subsequent posts why did I change my mind. My plan about spreading the word of kubuntu packaging seems failed. Yikes, sorry.
Finally I feel more language power to feed a blog. See ya.
