Actually, ApacheCon Europe 2005 starts on the 18th of July, but I just got this email: From: Rodent of Unusual Size [...] 1. Session slides/handouts are due by 1 MAY 2005. Gosh! I have less than a week to finish the slides and the handouts. I don't even know how handouts are supposed to look like. Fortunately, Monday is a [...]

I can't understand how this ad can possibly offend someone. Even with Pope Ratzi sitting right here in the center of Italy, it wouldn't even raise an eyebrow. We've had a TV ad for a chewing gum, featuring a guy who couldn't open a condom's envelope with his — presumably rotten for lack of hygiene [...]

I don't know if it's just us, but we seem to periodically run into the same troubles concerning character sets in Java web apps. This time I got bitten once again by the bug that causes international characters entered into an HTML form field to come out as an unintelligible string of random symbols when [...]

Dear Web, I have the following problem: I need to adapt some code that reads an image from a file using JAI to read it from an array of bytes having exactly the same content as the file. The code for reading from a file is quite simple: RenderedOp img = JAI.create("fileload", "filename.jpg"); My problem is that I [...]

If this is for real, I will hold off upgrading to 10.3.9, which I planned to do later today. On the other hand, I' running the stock JDK and not a developer release, so maybe this doesn't apply.

For the life of me, I can't make heads nor tails of this article:Tom Yager: "But no matter how much money and dedication is poured into Linux, it will never put a dent in Windows' mind share or market share because Linux is an operating system, a way -- and probably the best way -- [...]

Sylvain Wallez: Ajax in Cocoon: dead simple!: "Today, I added Ajax support to Cocoon, starting with form handling."If you're not familiar with Cocoon Forms, let me tell you why this is important and not just the latest indulgence to a passing fad.
