The Rich Engineering Heritage Behind Dependency Injection
Andrew McVeigh takes us on a tour of the rich heritage behind dependency injection, what it represents, and tells us why its here to stay.
Java, the OLPC, and community responsibility
The "One Laptop Per Child" project has a great device ready to ship, but there's no Java on there. Let's think about working together to put Java on OLPC!
IU destination folder is wrong on my configuration

Which requires maintenance that is moving them by hand to features/ and
plugins/ directory and updating
configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info to
make the correct location pointed.
I would be interested in any hint on how I could fix this if this is
from my messing with the configuration or if it could be one of the
update I made (I have eclipse ganymede "full" featured so al plugins and
features installed and up to date against eclipse ganymede update).
I am in the process of reading the p2 source code but I am still a bit
lost and it may be overkill if it ends up being a one line fix in a
configuration file :
eclipse.ini
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-consoleLog
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
-framework
plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.0.v20080605-1900.jar

I found out if it happens to anyone else (though this is unleckely). I
was using my eclipse root folder to copy cache artifacts.xml instead of
removing them and end up doing a cleanup of the eclipse root ...
removing artifacts.xml which is needed for the eclipse root to be
recognised by p2 as an "artifact folder" Bundle Pool.
Thus a temporary directory was used instead.
Maybe this could be detected (the lack of bundle pool artifact
repository though the interest looks minor to me ).
BR,
Alban
