[ilugd] [lb/2003] Linux Bangalore/2003 Speaker registration now open
Came in from ILUG-Bangalore: -- All: We are happy to announce that speaker registration for Linux Bangalore/2003 is now open. If you wish to give a talk at Linux Bangalore/2003, please head for http://linux-bangalore.org/2003/register/ Also make sure that you read the speaker guide before you submit a talk http://linux-bangalore.org/2003/guides/speakers.php Please note that speaker registration will be provisionally open till November 8th. We will occasionally publish lists of submitted (not *selected*) talks to give people an idea of what others are talking about, but shortlisting for the 70+ talk slots will happen only after this deadline, after which speakers will immediately be informed. During this period, we will be interacting with speakers in email to help them fine tune their talks/topics. We request speakers *not* to bombard the managers with enquiries about whether their talk has been selected, because *no* talk will be *selected* before the November 8th deadline. Till then, we are simply collecting and evaluating talk proposals. The final schedule of talks will appear on the website in the last week of November. Outstation speakers are requested to give us a reference to your local Linux/OpenSource community that you participate in to help us with the evaluation process. OK, that's the first bell for Linux Bangalore/2003 ;-), and is the beginning of a flood of announcements. If you want to participate in the discussions about the event, you should be on the event mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please remember - this is an Open Source community event, and will only work with the support of the Open Source community. That means *you*, amigo! ;-) Atul -- Linux Bangalore/2003 - India's biggest Open Source event December 2-4, Bangalore, India http://linux-bangalore.org/2003 ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

RE: [ilugd] Postgres vs oracle
Hi Tarun, Let me make it very cleat that I don't have any hunch in open source and thats why I am in the list but my dear, facts are facts. (Is Amazon.com running on open source (database)? Is eBay.com running on open source (database)? Is Yahoo.com running on open source (database)? Surely NO...so we would certainly be interested to know some of your Biggest Internet Sites running on open source. Kindly show us any relevant benchmark to prove your point on your tried and tested approach. That (deploying parallel servers) reminds me of a circus. Parallel execution of query in PostgeSQL? Try out and f'd for yourself. And also do let us know if we can live without Foreign Keys in a relational world (MySQL)? Well I would prefer (anyday) a muft thandi lassi than a muft thanda software.

Lot of performance related issues *will* crop up in the future and lot of fingers would be raised on you. No such things would happen if the architecture is good. If at all this would normally lead to performance improvement not degradation. The strategy to divide the Database onto multiple parallel servers is a good one And a tried and tested one at that. It would be anyday faster than a single large footprint database cluster. All you would need to do is pick up data in parallel from more than one database to generate a report and very likely use a single database for a transaction. And Gurpreet about your hunch on using a Free Software. Biggest of Internet Sites are running on open source databases. And you have option of paying up if you don't like Free(muft as in thandi lassi) software. -Tarun ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

Friends, Help required as per mail below. Reagrds Atul -- Forwarded Message -- Subject: Re: [governmentforge] XML Data Integration Engine Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 10:34:47 -0400 From: Eric Jahn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm a member of the local LUG, but they're pretty anti-XML as a group and many of them Java for that matter. This will probably have to be a Java app, since it has robust enough libraries in XML messaging. I'll probably end up using MySQL or PostgreSQL as the database, but the app server side of it's going to be the tricky part. Thanks!

Regards Atul I'm implementing a public case management application/database in Sarasota, FL, but I need to share to share this data with other systems in our area. My app has an XML push/pull mechanism as the only way communicate with other applications. Other agencies in my area are implementing similar applications which have XML communication capabilities or can have them added. I'm looking for an open source database application that can receive and validate asynchronously transferred XML/SOAP messages and make the data available to other applications that request this same information. What this will do is keep case management data synchronized across multiple applications, and this app will broker that communication. I see such an app as a potential synching killer app for government. If I can't find one, we need to build one. Does anyone know of any projects which I can piggyback onto?

Re: [ilugd] Laptop with linux compatibility
Recently installed RH 9.0 on Thinkpad 600E. Works without much pain, with X and all the good stuff. You may want to remove pcmcia cards before installing.
