Continued from last week’s post “Scrolling in SproutCore”. Tim presents his solution for making SC.ScrollView feel awesome. I began discussing possible solutions to the problem with Colin Campbell, who pointed me in the direction of Cappuccino as a reference implementation.

Create a services user account on the box and use it for the WebSphere Application's start and stop purposes.read more
Java SE 7, the Java Platform, Standard Edition 7 is out.
It’s the first major release in five years and took 9,494 bug fixes, 1,966 enhancements, 9,018 changesets, 147 builds and four JSRs to get here.
It’s also the first release of the Java platform under Oracle’s stewardship, and threatened not to happen until Oracle put its foot down and went off and wheeled and dealed and leveraged IBM. (Remember the Apache Foundation stalking off and slamming the door?)
Still, it’s based on the open source OpenJDK, making it something of a novelty for a commercial release. read more
