This is old news, but still deserves note. In early October, the Javalobby relaunched and rebranded the old FreeRoller service as JRoller. Javalobby has put in place scheduled backups, issue tracking, FTP access for file uploads and Rick Ross of the Javalobby has started his own blog which is going strong.

From Bruno Souza's Weblog: Governments and companies do not get locked into a vendor or a platform simply because they use closed software. They get locked because they develop their own applications tied to a specific product, be it a free product, or a proprietary product. Once all your applications are written to a product, and all your data is saved into a product-specific format, to move to another offering (free or proprietary) is a big effort. And the longer you do it, eventually it gets near to impossible - and you're locked. Vendors know this, and promote it as much as they can. And although free software makes you less dependent on the vendor, it does not necessarily keeps you from getting locked into a product...

Jack Ganssle writes: Don't get me wrong - I think C is a fantastic language, one that can lead to wonderful products. You can't beat it for bit twiddling and getting close to the hardware. But C does little to force us to build good code; it's very easily abused. This is a follow-up to his Love-Hate Relationship with C. I feel that it goes along with his well-written article on how software will fail.

Questions about the geography of entrepreneurship resulted in my founding Pioneer Entrepreneurs. In my experience, the Internet Age means that distance means less, but the specific characteristics of place matter more. Neil Takemoto, President of CoolTown Studios in Washington D.C., takes the argument a step further. He sees a connection between the built environment and entrepreneurship. Neil sees an intensified interest in entrepreneurship that is driven by two factors. First of all, he perceives a largely generational re-definition of the American Dream as meaning being able to do what you want, where you want. Second, he sees entrepreneurship as the natural outgrowth of superior connectedness. By that, he means the opportunity to learn from casual conversations that are facilitated both by technology and through the physical environments in which we live, work, and play.

Yesterday, I got some photographs of The Bearcom’s visits to Petone and central Lower Hutt. They’re scanned in, and are now just waiting to be made public once I go downstairs, grab the first set and go back upstairs tonight in time for scanning and posting the second set. There’s quite a few flowers in the second (the Petone) set, and quite a few ferns from around here at WCE, as well as Bill (a hapless Bearcom member) around the Wellington CBD in the first. Mmmmm, tasty. Updates to come as the first set is uploaded…Update, 2003-10-23: Yay! :) Both sets of photos from WCE and Wellington Civic Square, and Petone and Lower Hutt are now published, thanks to connivance on the part of the Bearcom. :)
