OpenEJB 0.9.2 released
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=282705
The 0.9.2 release is one that the whole team is quite proud of. OpenEJB
0.9.0 marked are first release with special Tomcat embedded support.
Thanks to all the user feedback that support has just gotten better and
better. The 0.9.2 release contains a neat surprise for OpenEJB/Tomcat
users -- TOOLS! The new integration features a webapp with a setup
verifier, JNDI browser, EJB viewer, Class browser, and even an Object
invoker! You can browse the OpenEJB namespace and know right away
exactly where the ejb is and what it is called. When you find one you
like, just click it and it will open up into the EJB viewer. While
there you can check out it's home, remote and bean classes in the class
browser. The Object invoker allows you to actually create and invoke
your EJBs without writing a single line of code. OpenEJB 0.9.2 also
contains a new openejb.base variable to complement the openejb.home
variable. The openejb.base variable allows you to have several
configurations of OpenEJB all running against the same OpenEJB install.
This makes using OpenEJB in IDEs like Eclipse or NetBeans even easier.
Move the openejb_loader-0.9.2.jar into your project's lib directory,
set the openejb.base, and you'll be debugging your EJB apps
front-to-back without the need for remote debugging support or special
editor plug-ins. Thanks to all the OpenEJB users for all the great
ideas! You speak, we listen.

bravehamster writes "According to this article over at [0]MSNBC,
Walmart is going to [1]push its suppliers to start using RFID to track
inventory by 2005. The article goes on to mention how it was Walmart
who helped jumpstart widespread adoption of barcodes. The report also
points out some of the barriers in the way of RFID acceptance, but
never once mentions consumer privacy concerns. Guess that kind of stuff
just isn't important anymore."

Cell Phone Number Portability Ruling
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/06/1659207
[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes "Checking the Court's Opinion site every day
has paid off. Verizon's action on the FCC's number portability ruling
was [1]dismissed by the D.C. Court of Appeals. The court found that
Verizon had waited far too long to bring the challenge and it also
sided with the FCC's interpretation of the Law rather than Verizon.
Barring any other action we may see number portability this year.
[2]Unfortunately, Verizon is already lobbying to have the law changed.
But it was also nice to see Cingular was on the FCC's side of the
case."

Putting the TV Broadcast Spectrum to Better Use?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/06/05/0312229
KoshClassic asks: "Recently, on the [0]NPR show [1]All Things
Considered, an interview was broadcast with Thomas Hazlett, formerly
the chief economist of the [2]FCC. Although short on details, Mr.
Hazlett raises the point that, with the high penetration rate of cable
/ satellite TV into American homes, broadcasting television over the
air has (or soon will) become superfulous and that this portion of the
radio spectrum could be better utilized for other purposes. What do
Slashdot readers think of this idea and, for those who agree, what
alternative uses of the broadcast spectrum would you like to see?"

indie music meeting recently held at Apple. Interesting statistics
revealed were that there are about 500k songs/week being downloaded
from the iTunes Music store and that 45% of songs are being purchased
as albums. Other interesting items of note are that Apple is treating
everyone as equvalents in that all labels receive equal treatment with
the same deal, the same agreements and you work with the same team of
people. What's more is that Apple cuts a check EVERY MONTH which is
huge for the smaller labels." Wired has another story about iTunes
which notes that [2]what Jobs taketh away, the community is bringing

Slashcode
Handling logging issues
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/22/0533218
I'm using cronolog for my apache logs, and I really, really like it.
I'd like to be able to use it on the slash logs as well, which become
large and cumbersome over time with many sites running on a server. How
do you all handle your logs? What do you use for log rotation? How long
do you keep logs? Is anyone using cronolog, or something like it with
slash?
RSS to Story?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/21/1727241
Hi, I'm looking for a way to grab remote RDF and post them as stories.
portald seems only to handle blocks. I'm aware of the elixus.org, and
the RSS2Story plugin in their patch of slashcode, but I can't get the
plugin installed, and it seems to be left unfinished. So is there any
other way to do this?
launch of slash site "stupidsecurity.com"
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/18/2133212
Announcing the opening of StupidSecurity.com. The site is meant to be a
chronicle of idiotic and deceptive "security" measures. From the "three
questions" that the airlines finally stopped asking to the closing of

gripes about security measures that are just plain dumb! I'd welcome
submissions (the stupider the better!), comments, complaints, and
praise!
MySQL 4.1+
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/16/1639224
I want to start using MySQL 4.1 to take advantage of the new Spatial
extensions in MySQL to further enhance my plugin. I saw the recent
story referring to using MySQL 4, but no direct mention of experience
with versions 4+. Any tips or recommendations? Should I make the
upgrade only on my development box, or is using 4+ okay. Any experience
with 4.1, which is alpha?
Section-specific Quick Links
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/16/1540217
I'm in the process of setting up a intranet Slash 2 site for a company.
With the aid of the Crow Book I've got everything installed and with
the L'n'F that they want, and we are in the process of adding some
initial content and getting the blocks running the way they want.
However, we're having problems getting section-specific quick links
blocks to work. Example: I have a section called legal, and a block
called legal_qlinks which has different links to index_qlinks.
index_qlinks shows up on the homepage as I expect, but nothing is
displayed in the right "frame" if I click no the section title under an
article. What am I doing wrong? The Crow Book (page 127) suggests that
this should work.
Need help building Slash templates
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/13/1634251

scheduling availability. You can see what the site will look like here.

Preventing duplicates from being posted
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/10/2021250
I'm getting sick of seeing duplicate posts all the time on Slashdot. I
have a feature-request/enhancement that I would like to request for
slashcode. It would be nice if before a moderator submits a story to
check all of the URLS in that post and match it with the previous
weeks/months stories for the same URL. If there is a match, throw up a
warning saying that this story is a possible duplicate. This will help
the moderator out too, since they wouldn't have to read every story on
slashdot in the past two weeks. What do you think? Is this doable?

Adding ispell after slash is installed
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/08/0414234
Hi, I read the (archived) thread at:
http://ask.slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/03/22/1 724238&mode=thread
and I have "Running Weblogs with Slash", so I know that "... Slash 2.2
has added an ispell compatibility mode. If the ispell program exists
and points to an ispell binary, the Edit Story page will include a list
of potentially misspelled words.)" (thanks blagger), but I don't know
how exactly what to add, and into what directory,. I installed freebsd
5.0, then built and installed the slashcode port, and now I've
installed ispell. I then tried adding symlinks to ispell into various
directories, including /usr/local/slash/bin, and restarting my browser
and the freebsd box. Nothing obvious changes. Can someone tell me
exactly which file to put where to enable spell-checking? I'm running
slash-2.2.6 on Freebsd 5.0. Thanks... P.S. Sorry if I misspelled
anything, but...
Shouldn't Slash Be Represented at OSCOM 3?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/04/02/171253
I found out that OSCOM 3, The Open Source Content Management
Conference, is taking place in Cambridge, MA, from May 28-30. I was
surprised to see that Slash does not appear to be represented in any
way. I posted a story to CTDATA suggesting that our community try to
represent itself in some fashion. If anyone wants to discuss how we can
influence the organizers of this conference to include a Slash
presentation, please email me at dave_aiello at ctdata.com.
