 Development projects
 
 Browsers
 
    Standardizing a BROWSER environment variable. Eric Raymond is
    promoting the use of [14]a new environment variable, BROWSER, to
    complement the existing PAGER, MAILER, and EDITOR variables. This
    effort is being tested as an experiment in hacking social systems.
    
    The Browser War: Nobody's fault but yours. Scott Andrew presents some
    interesting ideas on [15]web applications versus web pages and how to
    avoid domination of new web standards by a single corporation:
    "Netscape 6, Mozilla, Opera -- any browser that supports DOM/CSS --
    should be regarded as application browsers. This is different than a
    web browser. A web browser is designed to view pages on the Web. An
    application browser is specialized. It's made for working with web
    applications."
    
    Galeon 0.9 pre3 available. Version 0.9 pre3 of the Galeon Browser
    [16]is available on Sourceforge. Enhancements in this version include
    open url dialog autocompletion support, customization options for
    tabbed browsing, session saving, and a lot of bugfixes
    
 Education
 
    GGradebook 0.91 (Ofset). Version 0.91 of GGradebook, a gradebook
    program that runs under GNOME, [17]is now available.
    
 Electronics
 
    Xcircuit 2.2.0. Version 2.2.0 of the Xcircuit schematic drawing
    program [18]is available as a stable release. This version has pcb
    compatible netlist file outputs, a whole new set of menus, circuit
    elements with electrical parameters, and more.
    
 Embedded Systems
 
    Embedded Linux Newsletter for Jan. 25, 2001 (LinuxDevices.com). Rick
    Lehrbaum has posted the latest edition of the [19]Embedded Linux
    Newsletter to the LinuxDevices.com site. Highlights include a review
    of the results from last year Embedded Linux Survey and Lineo's trio
    of Embedix SDK advancements.
    
 Games
 
    Atlas C++ 0.40 released. A new, stable release of Atlas C++, version
    0.40, [20]has been released. Atlas C++ is a library that implements
    the Atlas object-oriented protocol for interprocess communications, it
    is a key component of the WorldForge game architecture. See the
    [21]Atlas Tutorial for more information on the Atlas protocol.
    
 Interoperability
 
    Wine Weekly News for January 29, 2001. Issue 80 of the [22]Wine Weekly
    News is available. Check it out for the latest developments in the
    Wine world.
    
 Office Applications
 
    Eazel releases Nautilus Preview 3. [23]As seen on the GNOME news site:
    Eazel has released the third and final preview version of its Nautilus
    desktop. Warning, the installation takes a 32MB bite out of your hard
    drive and may take a small eternity to download on a slow link.
    
    GNOME Office page gets a facelift. The [24]GNOME Office meta-project's
    web page has had a face lift. The new page offers a quick description
    of the various GNOME Office components as well as links to the project
    web pages. (Thanks to David Wheeler)
    
    The Gmail email client. Robert Bernstein [25]writes about Gmail in an
    Earthweb article. " An MUA (Mail User Agent) featuring an innovative
    approach to email message storage is now under development, and it
    bodes well for those email users who number their messages in the
    thousands. Gmail (http://gmail.linuxpower.org/), the brainchild of
    Wayne Schuller, a young Australian programmer, uses the MySQL database
    server, and retrieves, sorts and displays messages via SQL, the well
    known 'Structured Query Language.'"
    
    ANNOUNCE: Mr Project (Gnotices). A new project management application
    known as Mr Project [26]has been announced. "Mr Project is a project
    management program that can help build project plans, and track the
    progress of a project."
    
 On the Desktop
 
    The People behind KDE: Wolfram Diestel. This week's People Behind KDE
    features an interview of [27]Wolfram Diestel, a rather humorous
    picture is included.
    
    New KDE Tutorials. Several new and/or improved KDE tutorials have been
    published, Richard Moore has written one on [28]Kpart Plugins for
    KDE2, and Antonio Larrosa JimХnez has updated his info on
    [29]developing KDE2 applications.
    
    A developer's perspective on the GPLing of Qt (LinuxDevices.com).
    LinuxDevices.com [30]reopens the whole Qt licensing debate.
    "Regardless of whether you accept this 'infant industry' justification
    for initially releasing software under proprietary licenses, from a
    software developer's point of view it now seems hard to improve upon
    Trolltech's licensing."
    
    Berlin: A replacement for X? (LinuxToday). LinuxToday has posted a
    discussion by "Hawkeyes" [31]that discusses Berlin, an alternative to
    the X window system. "Many people complain about the X-windows
    standard. It's clearly not the perfect way to bring a graphical user
    interface to Linux, and it's been around for such a long time.
    Recently XFree86 has become hardware accelerated, in version 4.0.x,
    but in many ways it is still dragging user interface designers down.
    The lack of a single uniform toolkit, lack of support for alpha
    transparency and sluggish/heavy network transparency have always been
    problems in X." Check out the [32]Berlin web site as well.
    
    Talking with John Heard of Sun about GNOME. LinuxPower [33]talks with
    John Heard about Sun's membership in the GNOME Foundation.
    
      Christian: I would guess that partaking in free software
      development needs a different workform than in-house development.
      What measures are being put in place to ensure real engagement with
      the community on issues instead of needing to wait for slow
      bureaucratic wrangling before announcing contributions ?
      
      John Heard: This is an extremely important consideration for us at
      Sun. We have been particularly focused upon considering our normal
      "workform" and seeing how it needs to be modified to achieve the
      right interactions with the communities we have become involved
      with. I personally believe that this is a very valuable path upon
      which we in Sun are able to evolve our software development
      practices, but just as importantly to also bring valuable
      contributions towards the onwards co-evolving of the open source
      community development "workform". The core principle which is
      starting to develop between Sun and community is that of
      communication. I think you can already see that numerous members of
      Sun's technical and marketing staff are beginning to participate
      more freely. We have encouraged our teams to "lurk" for a while on
      the lists to gain familiarity with the practices and then to
      participate where they can add value. I am sure you are aware that
      Sun has been a consistent contributer of code to open systems, and
      we are continuing this same strategy, aligned to the trends of
      current open source practices.
      
    Gnome Installation Guide. Karsten Reincke has recently published a
    [34]Gnome Installation Guide that presents lots of useful information
    to those who wish to install development versions of GNOME from source
    code.
    
 Printing Systems
 
    CUPS v1.16 is available. Version 1.16 of CUPS, the Common Unix Print
    System, [35]is available. Lots of bugs have been fixed in this
    release.
    
 Web-site Development
 
    Getting to know Midgard (IBM developerWorks). IBM's developerWorks
    site has put up [36]a detailed article on getting started with the
    Midgard application server.
    
      On a very basic technical level, Midgard provides a content
      management API for PHP that makes managing such articles a whole
      lot easier and administering them a snap. It introduces some of its
      own content management concepts to help you organize articles more
      logically and deal with them easily. It can implement security,
      allowing only authorized users to update or view content, and
      recording personal information about users.
      
    (Thanks to Henri Bergius).
    
    Midgard Weekly Summary. The [37]Midgard Weekly Summary for January 26
    is out. Among other things, it includes an interview with Midgard
    founder Henri Bergius.
    
    Zope 2.3.0 released. Zope 2.3.0 final has been released. There is
    quite a bit of new stuff in this release; see [38]the announcement for
    details.
    
    Perl scripting available for Zope. Digital Creations and ActiveState
    have [39]announced the first release from the "Perl for Zope" project.
    Zope scripting is no longer limited to the Python language.

    programming. In future chapters, I plan to cover specific topics, like
    XML processing, in more depth. This is not a teaser site for some
    larger work for sale; all new content will be published here, for
