The title says it all! Adobe released their toolkit/sdk for latest XMP Toolkit 4.1.1 under BSD license so that open source developers amongst others can just get the source and run with it! This is super great news!

OMG, I forgot to blog that we launched the Open Font Library Logo Competition yesterday. Blog it! Digg it! See the announcement below:
The Open Font Library (OFL.o, www.openfontlibrary.org) is proud to
announce the commencement of the Open Font Library Logo competition
today, February 26, 2007. Artists and designers of all ranges are
invited to make a logo to help identify the project. Judging will take
place by contributors to the project, Alex Roberts (bovinity),
Liftarn, and Zeimusu, who will select the winning logo. The last
chance to submit submissions is March 14, 2007 at 11:59 PM PST. After
that, the judges will select a logo within five days from the
submission closing date.Other guidelines on the contest include that all submissions must be
dedicated to the public domain in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)
format which may be edited in all major drawing application, like the
free SVG editor Inkscape (www.inkscape.org). Also, contributors may
upload as many submissions as they would like and optionally submit
bitmap graphics showing how their logo might look on the site. The
project is not wed to the current green color on the site, so please
feel free to think of how the site should be colored around your
submission.The Open Font Library encourages all participants to join the Open
Font Library mailing list to discuss this competition and to
participate in the project. Also, for the time being, discussion about
this project is happening on channel #openclipart on irc.freenode.net
for any interested parties. While this competition is about creating a
great logo, the project hopes to interest hopeful font designers and
software developers in building up this project.Join Mailing List

About Open Font Library
The Open Font Library’s (www.openfontlibrary.org) major goal is to
create an archive of freely usable fonts for anyone to download. If
this sounds familiar, its because it is newborn sister project to the
Open Clip Art Library (www.openclipart.org). While the OFL.o’s site is
fresh, with few fonts, the goal is to build it up so that it can be
useful to the free and open source communities (and world).For More Information:
Please see http://openfontlibrary.org/?ccm=/OFLBLogo for details
about this contest. It closes March 14 at 11:59 PM PST.
“LGM 2007 has been announced. Artists and Developers of all the top OSS graphics programs (Blender, GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, Scribus, and more.) are invited to attend and work together to plan the future of free graphics. Plans will be made, hacking and drawing will be done, fun will be had.” (thanks Ryan)
The details to note are: Montréal Canada, 4th – 6th May – École Polytechnique de Montréal. Also, there will be a follow-up Call For Participation.
This conference is major and we had much fun last year at it in Lyon, France. I think it is of much value to our more localized communities, as conference such as LinuxWorld and OSCON scale out and are way too general to be useful to the developer + user split we are trying to accomplish in the Open Source graphics and creative application communities.
NOTE: I’m posting this from digg, so it’s a bit of a test. Digg it!

Last night, I did beg to keldamuzik.com to give a shout out to gerald ford (as well as james brown and saddamhussein,but prolly the wrong time for bad jokes).
It is time to take a nap. I have been maintaining multiple families for the last two weeks and I want to get rested up for massive work this week.
