I appear to be running a deficit in the attention budget division, as the
lack of updates here shows.

I've been busy at work finishing off a portlet based product (running on
Pluto), which has gone pretty well. Sometime I'll get the long blog post I
have about developing portlets out of my head and into pixels..

In somewhat related news, I am now a committer on Apache Pluto,
which is nice. I'll be
updating the documentation with some patches I've done as soon as I get it all set up.

I also have done some work on a simplified vector space search algorithm
for Classifier4J, although nothing
I can commit yet. It is looking pretty promising, though – it is very fast,
but useful for a different class of problems to the Bayesian classifier in
Classifier4J.

I'm also writing a list of project I'd start if I had time. The fact that
I haven't even had time to post the list yet
kind of indicates the likelihood of me getting anywhere on them, but maybe
someone else will find one interesting and write it for me.
