Blogging Roller

So says <a href= "http://www.infoworld.com/article/03/02/04/HNsidewinder_1.html">InfoWorld.

James Strachan reports a new top-level project at Apache db.apache.org for database related technologies:

James Strachan: Various database related projects will be moving under one roof such as ObjectRelationalBridge, Torque as well as various db commons projects like commons-sql, DBCP and maybe even PoolMan.

Chris Winters points out a new presentation by Dave Thomas one of the Pragmatic Programmers.

Chris Winters: I thought it interesting that many of the action items centered around getting yourself known, including contributing to open-source projects. Not just for the sake of getting your name out there, but to further your own knowledge in a more dynamic environment than learning by yourself. With the nice side-benefit of getting your name out there :-)

That's my plan and my excuse for my constant tinkering, writing, blogging, etc. I hope it works. On a related note: Dave Thomas has a blog and an RSS feed!
