Python/Harmattan - MeeGo wiki
The Harmattan Python project provides a Python runtime environment for Nokia's N9 phone and the N950 developer device built on the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan platform. It provides a full-featured set of packages and tools to rapidly develop and run Python applications using the PySide: Python for Qt bindings together with the Qt Quick UI definition language. Applications can be deployed as individual Debian packages, using the community OBS, or eventually, via Ovi Store.

Matt Blaze: Wikileaking a Cryptography Lesson
in an open society, network, the definition and explanation of the context becomes a lot more important, because the information will reach people you would not expect.And it should also remind us that, again, cryptographic usability matters. Sometimes quite a bit.

>It’s actually surprising to me that so many people are shocked by what this demonstrates. Even those who claim to be technically literate seem taken back. Insecure sites by definition are insecure.
Among people, I have read, it was not about the fact it was insecure, but more about the “contrat social” game changer. It’s not really about security but about contextual security. I’m surprised by the reactions of people too, but more because they thought there was an unwritten contrat social in any situations. Being at a friend’s house and respecting privacy of each other is one thing, being in a cafe or a conference is another thing. Not the same level of security and impacts.

i once had a sense of humor -- then i started working on HTML5... regardless of
humor, the natural language definition of the w3c document should be either
"en" or "en-us"

Announcing: Codetalker
One problem with many existing solutions is that they are limited in power and flexibility by a reliance on a DSL (often BNF-like) for grammar definition. … So I went back to python. Flexible? Totally. Powerful? Definitely. Capable? Of course. And doing everything in python allowed me to avoid the kind of frankinsteined mashups that are ANTLR grammar definitions.

PRODUCT DEFINITION
Re: Change Proposals, objections, and the Decision Policy from Roy T. Fielding on 2010-06-15 (public-html@w3.org from June 2010)
Ian's arguments are entirely based on browser behavior, when it
suits him, and entirely based on speculation when it doesn't.
We have had several discussions on terminology and language
definition for which he has shown no interest in consistency.
We have argued about URI and URL algorithms for which his claim
of browser implementation has turned out to be utterly false.
We are still arguing about the definition of Content-Language
as a pragma in HTML5, even though that definition is technically
wrong, not implemented by the majority of browsers let alone
any of the thousand or so content management systems, actively
harmful to deployed content, disagrees with the normative
MIME and HTTP definitions, breaks the principle of orthogonality
that is core to Web architecture, and even manages to misuse
the term "pragma" for something that is very clearly metadata.
Euh... dtg ?

“So for the time being at least we’ll be creating a lot of our content as applications, for sale on app stores and HTML, rather than in ebooks. The definition of the book itself is up for grabs.
