    I ended up using Pound as the load balancer in front of Mongrel. Directions for OS X are http://www.jaredrichardson.net/blog/2006/11/21/#in stalling-pound/ but it's fairly close to doing the same on Linux.

    I think that this was yet more control freakery from a government that feels free to execute (no pun intended) a shoot to kill policy against its citizens, lock them away for handing over encryption keys (and if the file is just noise rather than encrypted data, oh well) abolish trial by jury, remove double jeopardy and generally treat us like its property rather than its employers.href="//ask.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid =167966&threshold=-1&commentsort=0&tid=158&tid=93& tid=4&mode=thread&pid=14004575#14004856">Re:Commis ar Blair by Anonymous Coward Thursday November 10, @11:08PM

  3. Re:connect to the top by jarich · · Score: 2, Informative · on Implementing the Bureaucratic Black Arts?
    In Germany, at the start of major industrial thinking, they did an experiment. They called in all the workers, and told them that some scientists would be playing with things at the factory and that there would be changes. Then they called them in and said that they would be raising the temperature at work - then productivity went up. To be sure, they called everyone in and told them they would be lowering the temp. They lowered it, and productivity went up. "Odd," they thought. This went on and on with them calling meetings, making changes and having productivity go up. Finally they started interviewing the workers at length about why they were working harder and why they felt they were being more effective. They all said they liked how they felt the company kept them informed of all the plans...

    How do you assemble distributions and their components?... How do you tell the build system what to build *without* a manifest?

    How do you do assemble the components now? By hand? I hope not! Even if you do, creating a build script that consumes the output from other builds is not rocket science. Maven 2 will have this built in.

    Then there's the knotty problem of scheduling.

    Not really... Continuous Integration builds only when the code changes. At the end of the week, you have a collection of up to date build artifacts ready to be bundled. And again, Maven 2 will have transitive dependencies built in.

    Any build-manager with a reasonably complex build system should be looking at something like Parabuild. Or a scheduler like Maui.

    Maybe... but ...

    Scroll down to the second entry: Continuous Integration in the enterprise environment http://www.jaredrichardson.net/blog/2005/06/23/

    Open source tools are certaily up to the task of enterprise builds.

    We do have some additional components at SAS, but we cover ~all~ our Java code with CruiseControl. That's 5 million lines on a single branch, and we've got a lot of branches for various products.

    .Net will be gone in a few years, but the idea of Continuous Integration will serve the author in any language or environment.

    Yeah, but that's the book, not the PDF... and it's not the beta either. You order it from Amazon, you wait until August for your book.

    btw, I saw Dave give the Ruby on Rails talk this week-end at a No Fluff-Just Stuff conference. It was incredible what he was able to do with the framework in a very short amount of time. I'm a long time Java guy, but I'm moving two projects over to Ruby on Rails.. it feels just like SmallTalk again!
