Temos que escolher um livro para a O'Reilly nos enviar (por termos
colocado o banner da Euro OSCON no nosso site).

Ideias? :-)

? uma possibilidade :-)

Em Lisboa, como somos muitos, enviei s? um mail para a lista a dizer
que n?o fazia sentido ir a votos e que, se ningu?m tivesse nada
contra, eu iria pedir o Perl Testing e depois sorte?vamos o livro por
quem fosse ? reuni?o seguinte.

Aqui em Viana, como somos poucos, acho que n?o faz muito sentido estar
com tanta coisa... bem, mas se calhar faz, n?o sei :-)

Tanto o Perl Hacks como o Perl Testing me parecem boas ideias. Posso
pedir um deles como oferta e o outro como livro para review
(aproveitar que um deles eles t?m que mandar mesmo e ver se nos mandam
os livros para as reviews, tamb?m).

Que dizem?

Algu?m disposto a fazer reviews de um destes livros?

Concordo ctg, podes mandar vir.
Tamb?m me disponho para as reviews. Se calhar, podes-se
requisitar mais do que um para fazer reviews, porque apesar de ainda
n?o terem enviado nada, pode ser que agora sejam mais generosos.

Boas ppl,

Bem, Perl Testing parece-me uma boa escolha.

Quem desenvolve, preocupa-se em ter Software de qualidade e n?o tanto  
em termos de Hacking.. ;)

Message-ID: <20060522142358.GB15687@natura.di.uminho.pt>

Ora vivam! :-)

Serem membros dos Viana.pm ou dos Lisbon.pm d?-vos alguns direitos
especiais ;-)

Neste caso, 30% de desconto nos livros da O'Reilly! :-)

E n?o estamos a falar do pre?o nas Bertrands! Estamos a falar do pre?o
de capa em www.oreilly.co.uk.

Para tal, s? t?m que fazer uso do c?digo OR115.

Um exemplo:

O Perl Testing, na Bertrand, custa, salvo erro, perto de 50 euros
(corrijam-me se estiver errado).

No site da O'Reilly Europe custa 27 euros. Com os 30% off, fica por
18.9 euros.

Para dizer a verdade, isto parece-me t?o barato que at? me pergunto se
n?o estarei a fazer mal as contas... O:-)

Uma pequena men??o a algo que a Josette me disse:

> Please tell your members to contact me without
> delay if there are some problems with the shopping cart.

Portanto, se algu?m tiver problemas com este procedimento, enviem-me
um mail e eu passo-vos o contacto da Josette.

Abra?os, e boas compras ;-)

>    and into the consumer marketplace?

> Just Added: Google Geo Developer Day
> On Monday, June 12, the day before Where 2.0 kicks off, Google will be

> development team. They'll feed you well, hopefully teach you a trick or
> two, and definitely give you a behind the scenes peek at where Google is
> headed. The Google Geo Developer Day is free, but limited to only 100
> Where 2.0 attendees. 
> 
> Ramping up for the Where Fair
> Get a first look at the newest location-aware tools, apps, and hardware
> emerging from garages and university labs. Meet the creators, share ideas,
> and learn how these unconventional new technologies can be adapted into
> existing business strategies. Look for an announcement on the confirmed
> participants soon--the Where Fair will delight and inspire you, we
> promise!
> 
> Wondering who else will be at Where 2.0?
> Innovators, tech visionaries, business leaders, and venture funders, your
> colleagues and peers are coming together to make Where 2.0 a powerhouse of
> new ideas. Representatives from Hitachi Data Systems, RH Donnelley, SAP,
> Booz Allen Hamilton, Vodafone, France Telecom, Intel, Apple, Citysearch,
> Nokia Ventures, Ricoh Innovations, Stanford University, and IBM, among
> others, will be at Where 2.0.

** Managing Disk Space with LVM  **
Managing Disk Space with LVM by Bryce Harrington and Kees Cook
Linux's Logical Volume Manager (LVM) allows you to create virtual disk partitions out of one or more hard drives. This makes it easy to manage growth in filesystems. Combined with RAID, it provides a nearly unbeatable way to keep your files safe and available. Bryce Harrington and Kees Cook show how to configure LVM, how to combine it with RAID, and how to use it on desktop machines too.

** OpenBSD 3.9: Blob-Busters Interviewed  **
Every six months, the OpenBSD team releases a new version of their OS. OpenBSD 3.9 is here. Federico Biancuzzi recently interviewed the core developers about new features and improvements, as well as their principled stand against shipping binary-only blobs in place of actual drivers.

** Virtualization with FreeBSD Jails  **
Consolidating several small machines into one powerful one has advantages in administration and resource usage. It also has implications for security and encapsulation. FreeBSD's jails feature allows you to host multiple separate services on a single machine while keeping them securely separate. Dan Langille shows how.

NEWS FROM O'REILLY AND BEYOND



---------------------
General News
---------------------

***Scan, Open, & Print Money with dekePod
Deke McClelland Digital imaging guru Deke McClelland just introduced the
pilot for his new show "dekePod," a video podcast with a hip, visually
compelling style. The pilot episode, "It's Your Money, Scan It!", shows
viewers a workaround in Photoshop to scan and open money (under legal
guidelines).
<http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2006/05/03/dekepod.html>


***For SARS Press 1, for Bird Flu Press 2...
One of the key things we can do during a pandemic is to move in-person
congregations and meetings online, creating electronic surrogates for
daily social activities such as classes, business meetings, and social
outings. Brian McConnell examines how organizations can use the latest
telecom technology to help keep society functioning and diminish the
spread of disease if this kind of a disaster takes place.
<http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/etel/2006/05/02/for-sars-press-one.html>


---------------------
Open Source
---------------------

***Creating a Dual-Boot Windows XP and Ubuntu Laptop
Running a Windows-only laptop is hardly ideal for people who do
considerable work in the Linux environment. When Cygwin and ssh aren't
enough, consider at least dual-booting into the free software world.
Kevin Farnham recently converted his new laptop into a half-Windows,
half-Ubuntu GNU/Linux machine. Here's how.
<http://linux.oreillynet.com/pub/a/linux/2006/05/08/dual-boot-laptop.html
>

---------------------
Mac
---------------------
***Grabbing iTMS Preview Tracks the Geek Way
Ever tried to copy a preview track from the iTMS onto your iPod? Hint:
you can't. iTunes won't add those 30-second free previews. Why would you
want to? Some great audio and video are waiting for you to enjoy. Plus,
there's the sheer thrill of geek accomplishment--the "oh, so that's how
to do it" satisfaction.
<http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2006/05/09/previews.html>


***Mac FTP: A Guided Tour
(S)FTP has a valuable place in the hearts of web builders and
developers, and is still one of the most practical methods of getting
files from one place to another in a secure manner. In this article,
Giles Turnbull surveys six FTP clients for the Mac platform and shows
you the major characteristics of each.
<http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2006/04/13/ftp.html>

---------------------
Windows/.NET
---------------------
***Build a Web-Based Bug Tracking App
Having problems tracking bugs every time you create a new project? Jesse
Liberty has the solution. Here, he shows you how to build a Web-based
bug-tracking application using ASP.NET.
<http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/2006/05/09/build-a-web-bas
ed-bug-tracking-app.html>


***Ensuring Application Compatibility in Vista
What should you do if your enterprise has mission-critical
line-of-business apps that simply must continue running properly once
you've upgraded your desktops to Vista? Mitch Tulloch, author of Windows
Server Hacks, offers insight and advice.
<http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/2006/04/25/application-com
patibility-in-vista.html>

---------------------
Java
---------------------
***Real-Time Java: An Introduction
"Real-Time" Java doesn't mean "really fast," but it does mean "really
predictable," and that's especially important in many fields where an
unpredictable response time, usually caused by the Java Virtual
Machine's garbage collector, can cost money or lives. Peter Mikhalenko
looks at the Real-Time Specification for Java and Sun's first
implementation of the spec.
<http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2006/05/10/real-time-java-introductio
n.html>


***Configuration Management in Java EE Applications Using Subversion
Does your enterprise Java application need to store not only complex
objects or documents but a history of changes to them? Many developers
try to solve this problem with database wizardry, but it's probably a
better option to hand the job over to a configuration management system
that is built for the task. In this article, Swaminathan Radhakrishnan
shows how you can implement requirements for change tracking by using a
Subversion repository from your Java application, by way of the JavaSVN
library.
<http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2006/05/03/j2ee-configuration-managem
ent-with-subversion.html>

***Summer Projects
Are you looking for something fun or interesting to do this summer? This
week, we begin with an interview with Julieanne Kost, whose pictures
from airplanes are published in the book Window Seat. Then Google's
Chris Dibona talks to us about the upcoming second Summer of Code.
Finally, Dale Dougherty reads from his article in Make magazine on
Natalie Jeremijenko and her robot dogs. (DTF 05-08-2006: 24 minutes 35
seconds)

***The Maker Faire
Thousands of makers met up at the San Mateo Fairgrounds on April 22 and
23 for the first-ever Maker Faire. We talk to Make magazine publisher
Dale Dougherty about the Faire and hear from some of the attendees and
exhibitors that made this event so successful. (DTF 05-01-2006: 19
minutes 55 seconds)
