Ugly surprises

2005-12-13T00:04:00.000+01:00

I knew that work around existing software is not so simple but I didn't think that it could cause me so many problems. I am trying to build a wrapper for Subversion (inside an ampler project) for my degree thesis . Ideally this program should be able to work in an (almost) transparent way also with CVS. So, to get this I have avoided to use the developer's API of Subversion and I

I have yet spent times on Jython on this clod.At the beginning of the year was announced an acceleration of the development (due to the PSF of Brian Zimmer).After the initial spring the run has slow down...AGAIN!In spite of the Road Map of Zimmer, that predicted a 2.4 version of jython (i.e compatible with CPython 2.4), the only real achieved progress has been done the passage from 2.2alpha0 to

Being a computer scientist is not a simple thing;If you are a computer scientist, you will often have happened to have to explain to some friend what you do and what a computer science is. You will certainly have seen doubtful looks. If instead, you are not a computer scientist and some your friend, that it is, has tried to explain you what he does and what a computer science is, you will

To help who is less fortunate is, without doubt, a noble action but really I am not able of to understand the sense of Windows Starter Edition. In theory it should be a way to allow the use of the operating system also in that countries where the people cannot afford the cost of a classical license.

Microsoft and opensource?

Yesterday I have read the SourceForge mailing list and a news founded in it has attracted my attention: "Perhaps the most interesting news, which generated the greatest press, was the release of Open Source software on SourceForge.net by Microsoft. It is the first time Microsoft has ever released code in this manner. The company released the code using a valid Open Source (OSI-approved) license.

A sad day. In the last three years I have meet many people, many souls... Now, is time to go on...but: ~ Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.

Crisis time.

2003-07-16T17:13:00.000+02:00

The era is not good for poor informatics. The International crisis have involved many developers and in special way telcecomunication's workers. Everyone have an explanation to this bad situation. But who have the solution? I have not (what surprise!) but I have a personal strategy: If no one invests on me, I have to do it by myself. Take new skill or study in depth what you just know? It's a
