I love Spring

Been filling out more paperwork than you can shake a stick at just to take three graduate level CS classes.

Cheesefry: I feel your pain. I *hate* it when that happens.

Update: turns out you don’t *have* to fill out most of that paperwork anymore. You just need the permission number from the instructor.

I spent much of the rest of the day running around trying to set up things for the training that COSI will be doing in several weeks and for the open house tomorrow. Needed to reserve a room, arrange to have a projector, figure out parking, and determine what we’re doing for food. 3 of the 4 things are done. Just need to get a quote from Aramark or someone for the lunch we’ll provide for attendees.

Anyone gotten Mono working under OS X? From some of the posts on Planet Gnome and from the official Mono site it sounds like it works just fine, but I’m wondering what I really need to do to get it up and running. I came across Erik Dasque’s blog today after Miguel linked to him. He sounds like a pretty funny guy. And he had a screenshot of ?MonoDevelop? running under Mac OS X, which looks pretty cool. I’m not quite on the Mono/C# bandwagon yet the way Miguel and some other Ximian/Novell folks seem to be, but I would like a high level, platform independent language to write stuff in. And I unfortunately, as much as I love it, I don’t think Java is it.

Of course, I say that as I consider starting a cool new project that would utilize Java and J2EE technologies to do its thing.
