I was browsing through the [0]solr-ruby project svn directory when i can
across [1]CHANGES.yml (sample below):

IPC::System::Simple v0.06
[0]IPC::System::Simple v0.06 has been released, and should be hitting a
CPAN mirror new you shortly. The new release includes:

  * No more spurious warnings when we can't find commands (all systems).

  * Multi-arg calls to run() never use the shell under Win32, even though
    [1]multi-arg calls to system() sometimes do.

  * Native 16-bit exit values are available on Win32 systems, provided
    the multi-arg form of run() is used.

  * Better support on older Perl distributions, particular 5.6.1 under
    Win32.

I meant to mention this a few weeks ago, but I've been off gallivanting
around New Zealand.

Jonathan Tweed from the BBC has finished putting together videos from all
of the Teach-In sessions. You can get them (in various formats) from his
[0]Blip.tv account.

One small caveat. The batteries on the radio mike ran out about fifteen
minutes before the end of the last session, so we have no usable audio
for that time. We'll know better next time.

Thanks to Jonathan for all the work he's put in on this. I'm not sure I'd
want to spend as long as he has listening to my voice!
