Columba 1.0 "Holy Moly" Released

Frederik Dietz writes to tell us that after three years of hard developement Columba 1.0, codename "Holy Moly!" is ready for general consumption. Columba is an email client written in Java that boasts a 'user-friendly graphical interface with wizards and internationalization support.' Slashdot covered an interview with the Columba team earlier this year.

Re:3 years

[Anonymous Coward]

they invested 3 years of their life into the development of this project that alone deserves credit

3 years, hah that's nothing. Just wait until Duke Nukem Forever comes out.

Hey, Cool!

So how much do I need to pay to get my software advertised on Slashdot?

- mailvisa: simple bayesian spam filter in Ruby (beats most filters in Debian w.r.t. performance, precission, recall, and memory usage)

- logalize :analyzer for Apache log files, written in Perl. Simple, so it's easy to customize.

- wake: remotely wake up machines using wake-on-lan magic packets (written in Perl).

- detach: start commands detached from the terminal (keeps them from dying when the terminal exits)

- chrootexec: run commands inside a chroot jail, as a normal user.

- Perlcookies: random quotes from fortunes files (nice for sigs), but much smaller than the fortune package. Written in Perl.

More on my website, and many more on my harddisk, but these are the more useful ones. While you're at it, take a look at my esasys.
