i was just reading an interview with Miguel de Icaza, creator of Mono. He mentions their "Mono Migration Analyzer" tool for users to see the coverage for their (Windows) .NET apps. They collect automated reports generated by this tool to see what features of Mono are missing for most real world applications in the wild, and this is used to prioritise Mono development.

In Password Hash we used the following delegating class for base-64 encoding. public class Base64 { public static String encode(byte[] bytes) { return new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(bytes); } public static byte[] decode(String string) { try...

The Airbus vs Boeing competition has been interesting to watch in recent years. With the increasing number of world travellers, and limited airport capacity, there is a need for a very large carrier eg. 500+ seats. But the market can only support one such product.
