[ANNOUNCE] Display Tag Library 0.8.5 Released! I spent some time yesterday assembling the release notes, enhancing the build process, and updating the documentation for the display tag library. The result is a new release!

This release is primarily a bug-fixing release and also represents the first release from the project at SourceForge. If you would like to have a say in the future direction of this project, please join one of the mailing lists. [Release Notes] [Download]

Enjoy! I updated two projects with this new release today and it helped eliminate a lot of "workaround" code I had. The next thing I'd like to see - the ability to specify ResourceBundle keys for column titles.

Update: Ed Hill has updated this project's homepage with the latest examples and documentation. Posted in Java at Mar 24 2003, 09:26:52 PM MST 3 Comments

Red Hat 9 to be released soon After receiving the e-mail below, I'm guessing that Red Hat 9 will be released on April 7th. Is it worth paying $60 to get it early - I think not. Hopefully, I'll have the same easy download and install experience I did with 8.0 in October.

Dear Matt:

You may know that Red Hat Network is the best way to keep your 
systems running the latest errata and always up to date. What you 
might not know is that Red Hat Network passed the one million users 
mark earlier this year. We've listened to valuable feedback and have
added two items of interest to keep those users happy - early release 
of Red Hat Linux 9 ISOs and improved technical support.

Beginning March 31, 2003, paid subscribers to Red Hat Network will 
have access to Red Hat Linux 9 ISOs - a full week before retail store 
and Red Hat FTP availability. Also, Red Hat Network subscribers will
receive dedicated Red Hat Network Technical Support.

Thanks again for using Red Hat Linux. We appreciate all feedback 
from our users and hope you enjoy Red Hat Linux 9.

Sincerely,

Red Hat

Where's Erik? My best source of news (Erik Thauvin) is MIA. I hope everything's OK. Erik is at the top of my Blogrolling list, mainly because he's always on top of the latest tech news and he posts often. He hasn't posted since Friday and my blog reading just isn't the same without him.

Update: Go figure - whithin mere minutes of my posting this, Erik posts. Good to have you back Erik! Posted in General at Mar 24 2003, 11:41:48 AM MST 2 Comments
