Changes a comin'
Site changes coming in the next 24 hours. I'll add the new (low bandwidth) theme to Roller if requested.
The Angular Mini-Book is a
guide to getting started with Angular. You'll learn how to develop a bare-bones application, test it, and
deploy it. Then you'll move on to adding Bootstrap, Angular Material, continuous integration, and authentication.
Spring Boot is a popular framework for building REST APIs. You'll learn how to integrate Angular with Spring Boot and use security best practices like HTTPS and a content security policy.
For book updates, follow @angular_book on Twitter.
The JHipster Mini-Book is a
guide to getting started with hip technologies today: Angular, Bootstrap, and Spring
Boot. All of these frameworks are wrapped up in an easy-to-use project called JHipster.
This book shows you how to build an app with JHipster, and guides you through the plethora of tools, techniques and options you can use. Furthermore, it explains the UI and API building blocks so you understand the underpinnings of your great application.

10+ YEARS
Over 10 years ago, I wrote my first blog post. Since then, I've authored books, had kids, traveled the world, found Trish and blogged about it all.

[ANNOUNCE] Commons EL 1.0 Released!
The Jakarta Commons Team is pleased to announce the first official release
of Commons EL from the Apache Software Foundation. Commons EL provides
an interpreter for the Expression Language that is part of the
JavaServer Pages(TM) specification, version 2.0.
For more details see the
release notes.
Source and
binary distributions
are available from the mirrors. Please remember to verify the signatures
of the distribution using the keys found on the
main apache site
when downloading from a mirror.
For more information on Commons EL, see the
EL
web site.
Hmmm, I wonder if this means we can add EL support to the display tag library without including JSTL?
The Matrix at Red Rocks
This looks pretty cool - they're showing "The Matrix" at at Red Rocks. Not the new one, the old one - which I've been longing to see again ever since I saw Reloaded. For those of you not familiar with Red Rocks, it's an awesome natural ampitheater - and it's only minutes from my house (15 minutes on a bike). I just might have to go - looks like fun.
A nice quote
...this year's J1 taught me that "home" is not a place, but a feeling. (That's so '82!
)
I couldn't have said it better myself. It's why I'm so pumped to visit the cabin for the 4th. I'll make sure to take lots of pictures...

Happy Father's Day
Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there. Especially to the ones I know of: Dave, Lance and Russ (also the guys I've known longest in this weblogging business). Should be a good day - I've already done a Sunrise Mtn. Bike ride and now we're heading off to a Cajun restaurant for brunch. Here's a couple of recent photos so you can see why I'm such a proud Dad.

Hope y'all have a good one!
Wiki Improvements
I made a few wiki improvements today. Most notably was upgrading to the latest and greatest cvs snapshot (2.1.38-cvs). Yeah, that's right, I like to run all the beta or in-cvs software =80). Call me silly, but I'm doing it because I want the latest features (i.e. XHTML syntax and an RSS Feed) and I want to keep up-to-date as possible. It actually works quite well, and I'm in the midst of making my Redman theme into a contribution for JSPWiki. I still have lots of improvements to make, but it is currently in it's own templates directory.
New today - a short howto for configuring Tiles' definitions to include certain .css and .js files on a page-by-page basis. Also, thanks to Dave for the press!

mozdev.org and mozile
I found mozdev.org via mozilla.org on this beautiful Saturday morning.
mozdev.org fulfills a critical need in the Mozilla community with hosting for over a hundred Mozilla-related projects including browser add-ons, Mozilla-based applications, and community building efforts.
Which led me to the Project of the Week, Mozile:
Project of the Week: Edit sections of any XHTML page from in your browser using Mozile (Mozilla Inline Editor).
Cool stuff here. Now that IE/Win and IE/Mac are no longer being
developed as stand-alone products (see Zeldman post below), does this
mean that we'll get to actually use XUL? I'd love to do my next
paid project with JSF and XUL. Of course, there's kindof a
limited audience - and since Windows will still have a version of IE on
their OS's, most folks will probably still use that.
NOTE: mozdev is looking for donations to buy a new
server. I contributed $20.
