It-Alien!

A friend told me about Renoise, and browsing their site, I click on that page http://www.renoise.com/songs.php?pg=artist&id=19 and I listened to all the titles, really cool! ;-)

No FOSDEM for me this year

I intended to attend to the FOSDEM as past years but it won't be possible :'( I'm too late for too many things and I have to spend my weekends trying to catch with those things.

I wanna attend to the Java DevJam but I removed my name. I hope I'll be able to fix things and meet another time or next year.

Will Alexendria support XMLRPC or SOAP interface

I've just tried the Mylyn Eclipse plug-in and it's really a great plug-in to manage tasks, bugs and so. It's capable to show only files you shoudld be working on, count time you spend on a task and update task note or comment it. I did not try the Bugzilla or Trac connector but the Generic web connector to interact with Sourceforge.

An very good feature would be a better interaction with Sourceforge, but reading bug reports against Mylyn, the blocker is an XMLRPC or a SOAP interface to the Sourceforge bug tracking software. That's why I filed a bug at Sourceforge

Glassfish Installation

I was trying to install Glassfish from upstream binary when I launched ant -buildfile setup.xml I had an error:

Glassfish requires JDK 1.5 or higher, you have java version "1.7.0"

Eclipse with IcedTea on Debian Lenny PowerPC

Eclipse_IcedTea
Mise en ligne par avdyk

I just launch it and was so surprised that I wanna blog about it. I don't know how it works but Eclipse starts as fast enough for me (maybe faster than IBM's JVM, I don't know) and I can't beleive it! :-D

Read previous blog to have instructions to build it (and again thanks to Sun, Gary Benson and all those who make it possible!)

IcedTea is served: openjdk/control/build/linux-ppc

Control build finished: 07-11-24 22:25

Many thanks to Sun and all the RedHat team (especially Gary Benson) we have IcedTea on PowerPC!

Here are the DebianBuildInstructions: http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/DebianBuildingInstructions

No new laptop

Someone stole one of my co-worker's laptop. It's really sad, of
course, as you can imagine, no backup! All the staff has been
backuping private data on the next day! Now, there is a bad mood at
work where every trainer lock the door when (s)he teaches :(

Another bad news is the assurance does not work because it was during
the work and there is no infraction. So we'll lost nearly €3000. That
means I can forget my new laptop this year :'(

I'll be looking closer at the work of Garry Benson on the powerpc
port of IcedTea.

I see the world in ASCII...

Russian artists from Moscow presented in London the totally useless but somehow cool device - goggles that you can put on and feel yourself like a robot from a Terminator movie or like somebody else from “the cyberspace”. Read the blog.

My Music on MySpace.com

I uploaded some music content on http://myspace.com/arnogomez. The first track is a work in progress with David Borsu. We already have positive comments about it, don't hesitate to rate and comment.
The second track is a track I made with KRP Project back in 1999.
Both are unreleased yet.
I also find a 12 inches from KRP Project and me, released in 2000: all the tracks are on http://myspace.com/kroquisrecords
