More about searching wikis

Ross Mayfield: Meanwhile, Jimmy Wales and others are working on Wikia, a wiki search engine, and Wikipedia produces a nice diff feed.  Adapting to MediaWiki covers 1/4 of public wikis.  There are well over 100 open source wikis, a wonderful diversity to respect, and search engines would do well to adapt to them over time just as they have with less standard blog implementations.

Eclipse for Solaris x86 no longer available

I was using Eclipse (both 3.0.1 and 3.1M3) on Solaris x86 and it used to be on the download list, but now it is gone. WTF! I was hoping that, maybe, they'd switch the Solaris x86 build of Eclipse from Motif to GTK. I mean, how hard can that be? Instead they've taken it right off the list. I guess Eclipse.org is not as independent of an organization as I had previously thought. They must take orders directly from Palmisano. I want my Eclipse!
