I managed to figure out how to hook into the SLBoutique e-commerce system last night. I don’t expect my couple of test items to actually generate revenue, but it’s a step forward on my actual plans. Meanwhile, there are a few other things cooking in the realer world:
- Ruby on Rails ibm_db_adapter Release 0.4.0 – IBM isn’t ignoring RoR; if you want to hook into DB2 databases, it looks like they’re striving to provide first-class support. There was a while about ten years back that I actually had an AS400 parked next to my bedroom. Fortunately, those days are over.
- RedHat, Inc: The Next Microsoft? – Yes, Microsoft is not the only software giant making boneheaded intellectual property moves.
