... Rails 2.2, Arun on JSF Apps, OpenOffice and OpenESB, FishCAT turns 30!, Adobe and JavaFX (blogs.sun.com)
A compilation of today's news of interest:
Arun points out that Rails 2.2 is going to be multi-threaded. That's very good, specially in the context of a JRuby implementation - no need to do magical pooling of instances and the such!
And, talking about Arun, his latest TOTD entry (#42!) is a Hello World using JSF. Good to see Arun helping there; the JSF 2.0 spec includes a lot of interesting new features and we are going to need help to provide examples on how to use them!
Sebastien writes about how to his OpenESB application uses the OpenOffice Java API to Include MS Office Conversion in his application.
Judy reports that there are now 30 FishCAT members around the world that will help improve the quality of the GlassFIsh Server. All of them are non-Sun employees; I count 16 countries at the Quality Portal Home Page.
The JavaFX team provides an introduction to the Project Nile, which provides a mechanism to incorporate Adobe graphical assets into JavaFX; check out the Screencast by Jeff Hoffman and the Tutorial Document.

Test Center preview: Sun JavaFX Preview SDK | InfoWorld | Review | 2008-08-11 | By James R. Borck (www.infoworld.com)
Sun Microsystems recently unveiled the first public beta of its JavaFX framework for RIAs (rich Internet applications). There's a lot to like about the new SDK. It's rich in capabilities, and its Java-like syntax makes it a good springboard to RIAs for Java developers. But even in Java shops, Sun and JavaFX are behind not just one eight ball but two. Heavyweight competitors Adobe and Microsoft, with Flex/AIR and Silverlight, respectively, offer RIA toolsets that are not only far more mature but also include tools that bridge the all-important gap between designers and coders.

Eh-yah, Cahn't get thyah from hyah with an iPhone (blogs.sun.com)
Here's an interesting programming contest that bans iPhone and Google Android devices, but instead includes Java ME technology. Hurray! JavaWorld and xconomy.com both pointed out how the recent AT&T "Fast Pitch New England" contest excludes the iPhone and Google Android platforms for consideration. To win their mobile app development contest that lasts until Sept.. 30th, you must live in New England and you must not use a loser device like an iPhone or Google Android (maybe because there are no Android devices! Ya think?) ;-)
See:
AT&T Fast Pitch New England contest bans iPhone & Android
Here's a quote:
Perhaps eager to remind software developers that the Apple iPhone isn?t the only game in town?or even its only game in town? AT&T is sponsoring a contest for New England-based makers of mobile applications for competing platforms. ...AT&T is asking software developers to submit applications that run on the non-Apple devices that the company sells, including those based on the Java, Palm OS, RIM Blackberry, Symbian, and Windows Mobile...Personally, I'd choose to enter the contest using Java ME technology--much easier and faster to program a cool cell phone app that way. But, I don't live in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, or Vermont... and most important, I don't like Tom Brady. So, I guess that rules me out. :-)
