[Construction] Foundation is finished Last week, Bob the Builder finished the foundation for our new addition. Below are some pics. Nothing has changed (so far) this week - but I expect to see a floor pretty soon.

[ANN] Struts Resume 0.9 Released!
Struts Resume 0.9 is a major improvement over 0.8. Not only did I upgrade all the code to use AppFuse 1.4 (release notes
), but I also removed Struts from the services layer. Moreover, you can actually enter almost all of the pieces of a resume and render it in HTML and Word format. The resume-entry piece (and sections you can enter) is largely based on what Monster.com uses. I may add other sections in the future (i.e. awards and publications).
The main reason this is not a 1.0 release is because an administrator is the only one who can edit the HTML template - and the Word/RTF template is not editable online. Allowing a user to override the default template(s) will be the primary goal in 1.0.
Here's a specific rundown of all the changes from the changelog:
- Upgraded to AppFuse 1.4 - Includes Spring and all kinds of other goodies.
- Added Resume Creation/Editing Wizard.
- Added ability to edit HTML Template online (Admins only).
- UI Updates:
- Background borrowed from alistapart.com
. (Thanks!)
- Changed from ListMenu to TabbedMenu.
- Changed to fixed-width layout (700px).
- Added CSS drop shadows to headers.
- Idea from http://phoenity.com/newtedge/drop_shadow/
- Hack to fix Safari in web/layouts/baseLayout.jsp
