Here's the news for June 2008 - things are still pretty hectic for me as I continue to learn my new day-job, so haven't been able to keep on top of the news as much as I'd like, and I've got a sinking feeling I'm missing some important stuff in the list below. So, if you feel like helping out, please add comments to this post.

If you really want to help out, and would like to become a guest-editor for July's news, drop me a mail and I'll send on the scripts I use when compiling the list - it'll still be a pretty time consuming task though (2 or 3 hours, typically), but it's for a good cause!

So, without further ado, here's some of the stuff that went on in June:
