		<description><![CDATA[The new PR 1.2 firmware release for the N900 was just released and it&#8217;s time to upgrade. Then you bump into your first challenge: how to backup your SMS messages on the N900? Nokia&#8217;s PC Suite only backs up Contacts etc. but not your SMS messages. And Ovi Suite still does not support the N900 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So Nokia finally announced the N900. It&#8217;s an impressive phone already getting positive reviews. Reading the specs I miss two things: FLAC and Ogg support. How is it that a Linux &#38; Maemo based phone does not have support for FLAC and Ogg?! Let&#8217;s hope Nokia fixes that in new firmware releases.

		<description><![CDATA[The Linux Foundation just released their annual &#8216;Who Writes Linux&#8217; report. A fascinating read worth your time if you are interested in the numbers behind Linux&#8217; relentless progress. And guess which company is totally absent in the report? Canonical. No suprise there. All I hear from Shuttleworth is rhetoric about how the Community would benefit [...]]]></description>

In the good ol&#8217; days you disabled the beep from hammering your ears [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An interesting post and comments on Mether&#8217;s blog about Banshee and F-Spot depending on Moonlight. 
Personally I would rather see Mono and apps that depend on it disappear from Fedora and not come back. The Moonlight dependency is another example of the rather grey area this whole Mono thing is venturing into. And at some [...]]]></description>

What&#8217;s more important to me are the new features that are in the pipeline. Things like [...]]]></description>

I read about it before but thought it was a KDE app which is no good to me. Fortunately I was wrong as there [...]]]></description>
