This should be the Jakarta tagline.

"I think use Jakarta dogmeet."

RE: Maven is growing

2002-05-03 Thread Sale, Doug

agreed.  the swearing
(http://www.mail-archive.com/general@jakarta.apache.org/msg05130.html),
self-congratulating web page (http://jakarta.apache.org/site/jon.html), and
general attitude is disheartening.

most of us don't need others to step in and defend our 'nice-guy' status.

Apple/Java (was RE: You guys are so funny.)

2002-05-03 Thread Sale, Doug

i'm fairly new to Apple & OS/X (about a month w/ my TiBook), and have thus
not run into the native code dependency problems (yet).

i'm all for anything that would elevate the dev community's issues to both
camps (Sun/Apple).

RE: Open Source JDO Implementation??

2002-04-04 Thread Sale, Doug

 :) 

but isn't there some way to map multiple results to a single object?  can't
an object be backed by a result set, so all results aren't in memory?
