After a bit of consideration, I have come to the following conclusion:
floppy discs + super-powered shredder = good clean fun.

This morning I made three attempts on a FIOS telephone line to dial
a Philadelphia client on the (215) exchange. Each time I was greeted
with: "To enter your mailbox, press star, or, if you are not at your home
telephone ..." My Verizon answering service number starts with (610).
Then I tried calling from my home line, also (610) and got the same
message. My home line is copper.
Then I called from my cellphone - same result; still (610). Cellphone !
The situation corrected itself when I actually did dial in for my
messages; after that the client number worked OK.
I have never before experienced any such wrong connections, except for
my own mis-dialing errors.

The need to compete with VMWare and Red Hat presumably drives Redmond
to interesting behaviors.

If you know any musicians, those 12" speakers in a Fender Twin or a Marshall
work just fine!

If all you want to erase are floppies, you just need a bulk tape eraser.
Radio
Shack used to sell them.

Since the time it was mentioned at PLUG West last night, the official
announcement has gone out.

At last night's PLUG West meeting we talked a bit about Launchpad[1], and
its open sourcing. We weren't exactly sure when it was going to be open
sourced, but we knew it'd be soon and apparently it was sooner than we
thought. It was opened last night[2][3]!

Wow, and last night we also talked about how two components were not being
open sourced. Canonical has changed their minds and has opened the whole
thing. Sorry for sending two emails, but the code hosting part was the part
that some people were extra excited about (because it's fantastic) and I
thought I'd make sure they heard about it.

I checked and both Bazaar and Mercurial are mostly Python.
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bzr/1.17
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Mercurial
I looked at the CVS to BZR migration strategies:
http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrMigration?highlight=(CVS)#CVS
Alex had mentioned briefly about a tool that allows CVS clients to use
a BZR repo. I found the project but it hasn't been updated in a LONG
time.
