== January 2007 ==

; Sunday, 2007-01-28 : Got my reflow griddle working. Pictures of the thing can be found at [http://www.cryptonomicon.net/msh/images/reflow01/ cryptonomicon.net]. Still working on making Eagle CAD "work for me." It came up on MacOS X with no problem, but I'm going to have to do a little digging to find the library parts I need.

; Saturday, 2007-01-27 : Working on myPhone breakout board. The idea is this is a simple board with surface mount pads that connect through-holes to standard connectors for the LCD, LCD Backlight, touch panel, GumStix, Telit module, USB connector and stereo in/out jacks. It's intended to be "just enough" to give us something to work with for the next couple of weeks (and it's going to be my introduction to Eagle CAD.)

; Wednesday, 2007-01-24 : [[January_2007|Very good club meeting]] hosted by [http://instructables.com/ Instructables.Com]. We agree'd on which LCD, touchscreen, GumStix module to use. I think we eventually want to use the GSMStix, when they're available, but will be moving forward with the Telit module for the time being.

== April 2007 ==

; Tuesday, 2007-04-10 : I was chatting with Adrian about getting GumStix stuff working with the Mac. I tried this earlier and eventually gave up. But chatting about it gave me an excuse to try again. So here's the [[GumStix Software Development with MacOS]] page.

; Friday, 2007-04-13 : In response to a brief article by Brad Smith about Palm and Linux, I penned [http://telefono.revejo.org/pipermail/svhmpc_telefono.revejo.org/2007-April/000909.html this response]. A couple people thought it was a good description of what we're trying to accomplish, so I cleaned it up a bit, and posted it [[Complete Open Phone Manifesto|here]].

; Tuesday, 2007-04-17 : Added SpamBlackList module. I hope it works.

; Tuesday, 2007-04-17 : Hmm, I should probably start documenting [[OhOhThree|003]].

== June 2007 ==

; Friday, 2007-06-08 : Steve Colby made the very important point that we should start distributing "Tech Notes" to establish prior art for concepts we're not going to patent. I remember IBM used to have such a series, but I didn't realize it was for this purpose.

; Sunday, 2007-06-10 : Jowles UI Elements begun. Uploaded ringtoneseal.gif that I generated at [http://www.says-it.com/seal/ http://www.says-it.com/seal/].

== September 2007 ==

; Thursday, 2007-09-27 : Let's start documenting our organizational plans here: [[Organizational|Organizational Plans]] .
; Sunday, 2007-09-30 : Documenting [[GettingTheConsoleLCDVXWorking|how I got the ConsoleLCD-VX working]].

== October 2007 ==
; Tuesday, 2007-10-02 : Wrote a [[Image:Fbtest.tgz|simple test]] to test the frame buffer on the gumstix. Still investigating directfb.
; Friday, 2007-10-05 : Documenting stuff I did to get [[FBDirectOnConsoleLCD|FBDirect to work]].
; Sunday, 2007-10-08 : Creating [[MeetingInSecondLife|Meeting in Second Life]] and [[VMWareImage|VMWare Image]] pages.

== November 2007 ==
; Sunday, 2007-11-04 : Made an effort to upgrade to Media Wiki 1.11. Had some problems with the thumbnail processing stuff, so had to punt. Added some information to the google code wiki. Autotoolized the source. Made an "eclipse branch" so I could pretend to be an eclipse user using the system.
; Monday, 2007-11-05 : I should update the [[VMWareImage|VMWare Image]] page.
; Saturday, 2007-11-10 : I want to reorganize the "HOWTO's." The first I'm going to do is [[HOWTO Configure Eclipse to Work with Jowles]].
' Monday, 2007-11-12 : Adding the [[HOWTO Pages]] series.
