Quick... You have to let everyone (boss, biz dev, customer service, and random bean counters) know why everything is moving slowly! Of course, rarely do people define what "everything" is, and what type of slowness is occuring. But, in the face of customer service agents that cannot work because their pages will not render, generally all eyes are on the famed-dba-of-the-minute.So, with 7 people

Use MySQL? On Leopard/OS X 10.5? Yes, the current available packages from dev.mysql.com don’t work very well. I track “mysql” on Twitter, and boy, are there heaps of complaints.

So its nice to see, Dan Benjamin, a member of the MySQL community, stepping up, and creating the amazing Installing MySQL on Mac OS X article. The Preference Pane will obviously still not be there, and I don’t know why he thinks Mantorg (?) will build it, but I believe this is something MySQL needs to fix for the next release.

Mark Pilgrim decided that it would be cool to poke fun at OS X, because it “just works” on Ubuntu. While what he …

As I sat watching Larry Ellison’s keynote at Oracle OpenWorld on Wednesday it occurred to me that something was not quite right. This is the end of a year in which Oracle released a major new version of its flagship Database product and made a number of acquisitions, including Hyperion, Agile and Coherence, not to mention bidding for BEA. This is also the start of the year in which Oracle will roll-out its first Fusion Applications following its acquisitions of PeopleSoft, Siebel et al. And yet here was Ellison talking about Linux.

Granted, the fact that Oracle had gathered 1,500 customers in the first year of its Unbreakable Linux offering is a sign of success, but enough to overshadow everything else and form the starting …

I am heading back to Zaragoza to speak and attend at the 2nd Open Innovation event on the 20th, and I certainly am excited about it for a number of reasons, not least because of the great entrepreneurship the country currently is providing.

Secondly Spain seems to have disproportionate amount of open source developers compared to many other countries.

I don’t quite understand the reason for this, but I hope to find out, as well as very thriving entrepreneurship scene as Ignacio has already noted and good number of young Open Source businesses as Stephen has commented on. I am looking forward to talking to as many of them as possible.

Disclaimer: I am on the board of Ebox & have …

The TelePort project is no longer under development.

This is a re-post of an article I wrote in back in August. We’re getting ready to release a new release of Javeline PlatForm at the end of this month. This release will be XForms compliant and has a lot of other new features as well. Before I start writing about that, I would like to put some attention on the communication layer aka Javeline TelePort.

PHPBuilder posted an article about sending a form using AJAX. This article shows how to post a simple form. But looking closely at the example, you can also see what the problem is using the plain XMLHttpRequest object and writing an implementation yourself.

First of all you to write some rather difficult javascript code. Next you need to completely …
