finally - death to the format. PST !

Microsoft announced yesterday (World News Network) finally publish the format specifications of its shameless and never sufficiently disgraced. PST file (if it were still immune, are file within which the ignoble Outlook seal all e-mail after downloading. horrendous technology objects they created, create and create countless headaches to all the unfortunate users of Outlook, because of their tendency to grow uncontrollably, corrupted and become unmanageable in general and not backupped).

of this embezzlement have always bothered me deeply, because it is the my post, and it is absolutely unacceptable to me that my content is then captured by a program that is careful not to make them available in any way if not by himself.

makes me see that even from the binaries (pre-Office 2007 to be precise) of Word you can retrieve the text ... and the Office tools - Outlook excluded - has always offered to export content into other formats. Maybe bad, maybe losing the formatting, but wow, at least in some way you recover! Outlook however has refused to export anything in a usable, unless you want to imagine that export to text message each - one by one - can be defined as a way usable.

I hope that soon born of interoperability tool, the tool would be for me to release a couple of years of mail from the chains imposed by the cowardly policies of a past employer.


UPDATE: Microsoft has actually released the specifications . From a first reading, I understand why so many people. ... Incrocci PST a severe case of over-engineering ...

In memory of Walter Martin

I know, I do not compete to write about Walter, but I think it is permissible to remember with all the affection possible. A colleague, a friend, a great person: the inimitable Gigi posted his memory and together with some evidence "from the past" that make a wonderful summary of it was "our" Valter.

his wife and children, his sister Giusy - even her former colleague in Siosistemi - and condolences to all family members who unfortunately was not able to convey in person because I was really too far, and for me there was no even one crumb of consolation that comes from embracing with eyes the poor mortal remains of a person you loved.

But I'm glad that Walter's ashes rest in the sky between Wilhelm and Sebino, because each will go up the mountain on which I will remember him and keep him alive.

Goodbye, Walter, and thank you for everything. We'll miss you, but wait for us.
