Today I've made some improvements with my Mercurial + Maven + Hudson
setup - and reached a new level of karma, being able to do automated
releases.
Let's go in order. First let me recap what happens with the Maven
release plugin (mvn release:prepare release:perform) and Mercurial:
A check is performed that there are no uncommitted changes
and a build is performed as a validity proof.

Just installed a fundamental Hudson plugin.
Masoud Kalali just pointed me and other NBDT fellows to this document by Oracle, which contains some more details about the future of many Sun products after the buy is completed. One paragraph is relevant to NetBeans:Oracle has a strong track record of demonstrating commitment to choice for Java developers.

My last post about my use of semantic technologies in my projects dates

of a presentation
I've held a couple of days ago at the JavaDay

Elmo. Both are produced by Aduna
Software and are available at the OpenRDF site, under

It is the result of a few months of design exercises started with MVC. As I mentioned in my first post, in the meantime some interesting stuff has been published about DCI, a pattern that sports better properties than MVC, in particular a post by...
Rumors published by a newspaper are making people discuss whether JavaOne 2009 has been the last one, as Oracle would prefer to merge it with its OracleWorld. My point is that rumors should be considered as much as they deserve: that is, as almost nothing. And I'm not really interested in the name of a conference (*), given that it is well planned and it sports good speakers. For instance, what...
Another important milestone in the process of switching to Maven all of my projects - ForceTen is my first NetBeans Platform application that has been completely mavenized (other mavenized blueMarine modules are just libraries of components, and there's no mavenized blueMarine executable yet).ForceTen is a project containing the geographic components of blueMarine (maps, geotagging, etc). So far...
