Gabriele is inspirining me so much in these days. I’ve just read his las post about searching for his name on Google, so I tried by searching for my own name Federico. It looks like I’m on the 7th place, just before Federico García Lorca and Federico Fellini!
After seeing the Peter Norvig’s implementation of a Spell corrector in 20 lines of python code, I would like to add an Erlang implementation to the perl6 one made by Gabriele.
Unfortunately I’m blocked by an issue I’m still trying to solve. (update: thanks to your suggestions I’ve solved the “folding” issue)
Here’s what I did until now:
Jarosław Rzeszótko wrote this great article where he builds a POP3 to RSS gateway in Erlang. Very nice stuff and well written article on the topic. He’s also running for the Erlang blogging contest and I’m sure he has good chances to win!
I just received an awesome news from my manager. Two of the most important Yahoo’s platform tools have been published to the Open Source world for your pleasure:
- r3 allows developers of web applications to customize and translate their UI for different languages, markets and uses. It allows developers to modify existing functionality and add new plug-ins via the Stickleback extension engine.
- Stickleback is a general purpose plug-in framework. It ships with tools that allow developers to build and extend PHP command-line and gui applications. It forms the basis of ‘r3′, a web app customization and localization engine.
That’s all for now! More infos to come soon!
