I've taken to writing much of my XML like this: <foo:bar xmlns:foo="uri"> <blah ... /> <blah ... /> </foo:bar> Which is to say, with an outermost element that's namespace qualified, but with all other elements belonging to no namespace...

Ah, I have so much sympathy for Microsoft right now. I had just released version 0.93 of FlexWikiPad when I got email from several users complaining of some rather serious problems. Sure enough, I was able to verify them. D'oh! Well, like any responsible...

I've just released a new version of my major free-time black hole, FlexWikiPad . You can download version 0.93 here . New features in this, the latest version include: Find and replace. Not having this was killing me, so it's in. Ahhh... Help. Hopefully...

I'm not sure if you've seen this by now or not, but it's potentially devastating news for security pretty much everywhere if it turns out that SHA-1 has serious vulnerabilities.

When Tim Ewald says XSD is too complicated , you know that at best the technology might be...a tad overengineered. So perhaps it's time to look into RelaxNG , an alternate schema language that lacks a lot of the weird complexities of XSD. In truth, I...

If you haven't checked out CruiseControl.NET yet, you really ought to. Continuous Integration (CI) is, in my opinion, only slightly behind Test Driven Development on the list of “most important software development techniques I've ever encountered...

There are two conferences I'd really like to go to this year: WinDev and the Applied XML Developer’s Conference 5 . The confernces are both in late October, and both look to be awesome...just check the spearker list. I was invited to submit a talk...

It's been a long time since I've taught a DevelopMentor class: something like 18 months. Well, today I got an email from management that (rightfully, in my opinion) pointed out that it was time to make a decision about whether my name would continue to...

If you just got a big pile of CraigBlog posts today and are wondering what happened, it's because I finally fixed the redirects for the RSS feed on my old blog. It came to my attention that not only I had forgotten to do so, but that at least a few people...

Jason Whittington has a blog . Jason's a friend from my DM days; these days he owns the DevelopMentor .NET curriculum. Looks like he's playing with Whidbey these days! Subscribed.

Inspired by David Ornstein (Sodden Rat In IV), I've been having some real fun with this site the last few days. It's nothing new: I go there every few years. But I found some good ones this time: Craig Andera = In A Drag Race = Grand AI Race I don't have...

Recently, I posted some complaints about XmlSerializer and about Windows Explorer . First of all, thanks to those who posted comments trying to help out - they led to a better understanding, and to a solution, respectively. They also led to me finding...

This is too good not to share. Best title? I think it has to be “ The Thing That Should Not Let It Be ”.

Please tell me why, when I delete a file in Windows Explorer (select file, hit the delete key), it takes like 30 seconds. From the command line, it takes no time at all.
