Brief Personal Status Update (January 9. 2007)

Hey all. Sorry, I haven't been around the forums for a few days and haven't done any updates. My best friend was hit by a car on Friday night... it was pretty bad. It looks like he'll be mostly ok, but he's still in the hospital and may be for another week. I've been spending most of my time there since it happened.

I had intended to release the 1.0.2 Suite/Menu as well as updates to the apps and the music app this week as well as get the ball rolling on the PAF spec and some theme ideas for the theme file format itself... as well as planning out the 1.1 feature set (locale files, theming, icon renaming, etc). But these will have to wait a few more days until I'm back 100%. Ryan (our newest moderator) has kindly agreed to keep an eye on things while I'm gone.

I'll post more when I have the time.

Best,
John

I can see you are back...

How is your friend doing? I hope he's much better. Is he out of the hospital yet?

Just a couple responses

I'm just making a couple responses before heading back to the hospital today. He's pretty banged up and has lost some hearing and facial muscle control. He was able to start walking again, though. And the blood on his brain has stayed stable.

I'm calling this week a loss work-wise and focusing on getting him a place to stay with no stairs (or fewer than 3 full flights), getting his bills paid, short-term disability and insurance paperwork done, police reports, etc.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
