Amazon’s EC2 Micro Instance and Firebird

Jiří Činčura Blogged about his impression on Amazon’s microinstance :

Few months ago I was playing with different VPS providers and I was also considering deploying the application to some “small instance” cloud. I came to Micro Instance of Amazon EC2.

TURBU – The Ultimate Rpg BUilder is switching to Firebird as storage mechanism

From the about box :

TURBU is an RPG-building engine currently under development. It is being written by Mason Wheeler, and will be able to create and edit RPGs with a wide variety of customizable options, including importing existing project from RPG Maker 2000 and 2003.

New Flamerobin snapshot revision 2105 in #debian unstable

You can download and install the package directly from debian sid (tested and works on ubuntu natty too )
http://packages.debian.org/sid/flamerobin
ChangeLog:
-New upstream SVN snapshot : revision 2105
-If main window close event can be vetoed then loop through all other BaseFrame instances and check whether they veto the closing (check for open transactions, unsaved changes to files, active background work and so on). Replaces the previous confirmation dialog that was always shown.
-Store last selected authentication mode for database creation as selection index of the choice control instead of string selection because the entries are translatable strings
-Correct value of ExecuteSqlFrame status bar pane with database connection info restored
-LogTextControl modified to be read-only, custom context menu implemented for selecting, copying and clearing the content
-Regression fixed: parameter data type weren’t shown in procedure property pages any more
