[19:21] <ehazlett> greetings...
[19:35] <nhandler> Hello ehazlett
[19:35] <ehazlett> hello
[19:35] <ehazlett> i am the developer of reconstructor and was just spreading the news of an upcoming release
[19:37] <nhandler> ehazlett: Do you have a link to a blog post (or something similar) for the release?
[19:37] <ehazlett> yeah :)
[19:37] <ehazlett> http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/
[19:49] <tyche> nhandler: Make sure you put in the link to the demo, too.
[19:50] <ehazlett> ah yeah sorry -- here's the direct link -- http://aperantis.com/pub/rv3_preview/
[19:52] <tyche> Yea,ehazlett, I found it in the top of your announcement.  I could have wished for a bit of description of the software, too.  You know, something about what it is and what it does, so we could point back and show people that we're honest journalists.   Hee hee
[19:52] <ehazlett> hehe
[19:53] <ehazlett> Here's the gist of it...  Reconstructor is a customization and creation tool for the Ubuntu Linux operating system.
[19:54] <tyche> Yea, *I* know.  I looked into it about a year ago with the possibility of doing something like that for branding for the AZ team.  It's "Our Readers" that might not know.
[19:56] <tyche> BTW, I considered it quite a product.  If we'd gotten our act together and come up with the branding we would have used it.
[19:56] <ehazlett> gotcha
[19:56] <ehazlett> thanks :D
[19:56] <tyche> NP
[19:57] <ehazlett> you should check out the new version -- lot's of improvements -- web-based
[19:59] <tyche> Instead, all we came up with was a graphic overlay that could be placed on any graphic one wanted to use as a wallpaper.  Examples:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/22090195@N03/2776365679/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/22090195@N03/3183971968/
[20:00] <ehazlett> ah, nice
[20:00] <ehazlett> i like the "complaint department" lol
[20:01] <tyche> Well, now you've met me.  The sword hangs on the wall over my bed
[20:05] <tyche> I just tossed it in the UWN.  That's not a guarantee.  johnc4510 may decide to move it or delete it (he's the boss).  But at least it's up for serious consideration.
[20:06] <tyche> If, between now and Saturday, you were to blog about Reconstructor, what it is and what it does, and talk about the preview (and give us the link) we'd replace the one I put in with that.
[20:09] <ehazlett> awesome, thanks :)
[20:10] <ehazlett> i will see if i can come up with something
[20:10] <ehazlett> thanks a lot
[20:10] <tyche> Great.  You can catch me here or in -us-az, usually.  I'm retired, so I spend a lot of time in front of my computer.
[20:11] <ehazlett> awesome !
