Wonderful exchange replacement

I used to use exchange when i was in school and i love the features it has.

Here at work we used to use a postfix + dovecot setup in linux for email but some months ago i found zimbra. Zimbra is a paid/opensource exchange replacement.

I installed it on a spare server and then since January i replaced our main email server with it. Now we use imap instead of pop3, share calendars, share mailboxes, etc.

It works incredible! We are now integrating it (it uses soap internally) to our extranet.

Go and take a look at zimbra!

Adobe Connect Alternative

On weekends i love to surf the web looking to learn about new interesting open source projects.

Today i found a VERY interesting project. It’s a “adobe connect” alike meeting environment.

Supports audio, video, screensharing, chat, etc. Uses flash and it’s free!

Go check it out!

FMS Event Dispatcher

I had an EventDispatcher class for fms a while ago. I updated it to be more similar to the EventDispatcher class in ActionScript3.

So, here it is for you to use it. If you find smth wrong plz let me know about it and i will be sure to post a fix asap.

BTW, this code is based on Adobe’s class and requires my __package and __import util methods.

WebSphere flex plugin

Anyone know what happened to the websphere flex plugin? Is that Adobe decide to go with Eclipse instead?

Just found this link http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/wsadflex on the old blog entries.
