Another productive weekend - may have a new project to announce shortly.

  • What do we need to get on Ruby 1.9? - Wycats inquires. For me, the fact that I can't run a Rails app with a database using mainstream gems is a showstopper. Not interested in science projects when I'm trying to do paying work.

  • Memcached 1.4.0 - Now released, including dead-simple Amazon EC2 AMIs for those who want to cache in the cloud.

  • Nmap 5.0.0 released - I used port scanners a lot more when I was on Windows, but I still keep some eye at what's going on.

  • Kii - A new entrant in the open-source Rails wiki sweepstakes.

  • Test::Unit 2.0.3 - Huh, I hadn't realized T::U was still under active development.

  • The Lazy developer: Tweak your MySQL - Elad offers some memory tuning suggestions.

  • Big Old Rails Template - I've done some updating to this template, which I talked about here.
