I’m looking for one or two more part-timers for Openismus, possibly a full-timer. It’s a chance to do work that people will actually use, about half of which is released as source code.
It’s much easier to employ residents of Germany, but I’ll do the extra work to employ in other EU countries if necessary. I […]

Erich Schubert’s D-Bus Inspector looks useful. Maybe someone would be kind enough to package it for Ubuntu.
It’s already in GNOME’s svn. It seems like a candidate for the GNOME Developer Tools.

Speigel.de has an interesting travel video on Timişoara, Romania, mostly in German.
