Microsoft Midori: Destined to Take "Epic Fail" to a Whole New Level 

by Maxim Porges @ 2:23 PM | Link | Feedback (0)

We're talking about epic fail that spans a multitude of topologies, ranging from client-server and multi-tier fail to peer-to-peer fail, and in the cloud data center fail. Those topologies form a heterogeneous fail where fail can exist at separate places. Read it and weep.

I guess you could say I'm "sour"... on... Midori? I thank you...

Merapi Alpha Announced 

by Maxim Porges @ 10:43 PM | Link | Feedback (0)

Merapi has been announced in alpha form, and I'm pretty interested to see where it goes. Being able to write Java apps on and have them accessible from AIR on the desktop opens up some really interesting opportunities.

I've signed up for the alpha, so hopefully the team will approve me and I will get to play with it soon.

Flex Maven Tutorial 

by Maxim Porges @ 10:19 PM | Link | Feedback (0)

I had planned on posting a tutorial on how we are using flex-mojos at Highwinds to automate our build process, but as you can tell from the lack of blog posts I just haven't had time to blog about anything recently.

Luckily, Adobe has published an article series on just this very thing. You can also vote for officially endorsed Maven 2 support for Flex on the Flex JIRA site.
