  1. another one on Open Source Software for Print Tiling? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I needed this exact functionality some time ago, and mentioned it to a friend. He incorporated it into his anti-paint program. It's a linux program and it needs to be compiled from source. I haven't tried it yet, so don't blame me if it doesn't work, blame the author :)

  2. Re:genericity in testing on Why We Refactored JUnit · · Score: 3, Informative

    Unit testing databases can be simplified by using DBUnit.
    With DBUnit, you can describe your database in xml, and each time the tests are run, dbunit creates a new test database starting from the xml files. So you always test on a clean database. Check it out!

  3. another question on Open Source Solutions for Libraries? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I have another, related question to pose :

    Are there any small-scale library systems : standalone, run on a 486/Pentium90...

    In my case it would be used for the small library of an astronomy club, but other assocications surely have similar needs.

    Anyone?

  4. Linux marketing slogan on Linux Sales Down, But... · · Score: 1

    'MS products will cost you in 2 days what Linux will cost you in a year'

    It's a cheap (and inaccurate) shot, but it's marketing after all :)

  5. Antwerp. belgium does the same thing on Free Internet Access for Hamburgers · · Score: 1

    Hi all,

    Just last week Antwerp (a town in Belgium) announced to do the same thing. Sadly, telephone rates are rather high here too, so it isn't exactly a free lunch either.
