Hello Jacques,
Sme is the case here!
I wan't to work the full time on this project, but my other obligations keep pulling me.
Am trying to give in as much time as is possible, but still trying to understand the whole thing.
Neways, best of luck to you! and wish the same to me ;)
Regards,
Rohit

Rohit,
I'm still trying to get at least 2 days per week to
work on OFBiz (in my case more and more Neogia but it's almost
idem).
For one year now I am not only learning OFBiz
but Java (former MS Visual C++ man) and Linux as well.
I begin to survive more easily with Linux (Ubuntu
Hoary). Eclipse is so better on Linux that I will totally switch from
Windows next days (thanks to Samba :).
Yesterday I had some trouble with Linux : as I
don't want anybody to touch my computers when I am off (I work at home) I use a
screensaver "passworded".
By curiosity, I have waited to see what happen when
you let the screensaver time out coming. Never do that : after access
is always *DENIED*. I don't understand why it's so, but I can tell you it's
hard. I had an Eclipse session opened and had to switch off my PC.
Bingo : I lost all my workspace. Fortunately there were only OFBiz and
Neogia projects on this machine (easy to recall from the net and I have a
copy of my OFBiz changes on one Windows PC). I did to succed to restore anything
(from rsync) as I don't understand exactly how things are managed by Eclipse
(.metadata seems not enough).
So my advice : don't be too curious if you
don't want to loose your sunday trying to search a way to restore an Eclipse
workspace (this means also all your parameters, etc. Fortunatly not the
plugins)
So it's OK now, but Linux (with some Eclipse help)
too may sometimes really rot you life !
This being said, I'm sure now that Linux
is by far better than Windows to develop.
My first experience in MS world was in 1985 with
IBM PC AT2 : MS DOS 3.0 - lattice C, I worked also on IBM 3090 series in APL.
Waooooo, it's good to speak of oneself , sorry for the bothering...
Good night all (at least me, I really need
it ;)
Jacques

It sounds cool, Jacques,
I work with Eclipse on windows cause got lot of other work on .net
Do have 2 linux systems, Fedora Core 3, but use them strictly for server prupose. Actually I began my IT career with Linux in 1998. and then went on to become a linux teacher. leave that . ..
Nice to hear from someone using Neogia. Actually I never got time to look at it. Only read about it at the site. can you write something about it here for all of us.
Well, at my place it is not night, It is 5:00 AM here in India, and I think I should also have a Sleep.
So good night to you all there!
Regards,
Rohit

Hello Jacques,
In your letter to Rohit you rote: "I'm sure now that Linux is by far
better than Windows to develop". I, myself, have been toying with the idea of
migrating to Linux. Could I ask you to elaborate on your assertion? Why Linux is
better?
Thank you!

Firas,
IMHO Linux is especially better because all tools
are integrated and Eclipse runs much faster and is stable (but don't "play" like
I did below ;o). OFBiz seems to run faster also.
