Week to go

I'm entering my final week of work. Baring coming in on January the 5th for the official redundination notice my last day is the 18th of December. I'm not really going to think about any job hunting/career stuff until well past the Christmas holidays.

Luckily I seem to have boxed off all the "must do" tasks to get the product to it's general availability state with a few days in hand. I may be being made redundant but I can at least point to yet another complete project on my CV. I really don't like leaving projects halfway through, at least professionally!

I'm giving a "Linux 101" presentation to the support and sales people today. It's a little different from the day to day code monkey stuff but variety is good. Still 45 minutes seems like an awfully long time to fill especially given my tendency to speak a lot faster than normal when I'm in front of a lot of people. I shall do my best to get "Free as in Freedom" into the talk ;-)
