About the author
Via Allen Bauer's blog, I have found out that Sun has published a policy on public discourse.
I find that it's a great help for me. As a person without much tact and diplomacy, I often blurt out stuff without much consideration, meaning, I have a bullet-speed mouth, and bullet-speed fingers (developed over the years using the super efficient Dvorak keyboard layout) but a snail-like brain. What that means is that, I often type, or talk, faster than I can think. ;o)
Often, I also find it hard to communicate my thoughts clearly to others.
I'll print a copy of that discourse, and stick it beside the monitor where I can read it when I'm stucked on an idea, having a writer's block or developer's block.
