New acronyms FLAPS , FWAP, FWIP
FLAPS is FLAP with Ssl (that is why S is at the end of word)
FWAP is an acronym for the combination Microsoft Windows, Apache, Firebird and one or more of Perl, PHP and Python. It is modelled after the more well-known FLAP, referring to the all-open source/free software approach which uses Linux instead of Windows.
FWIP is the WIMP equivalent (alias) with firebird used instead of mysql
MSSql difficult to configure? switch to firebird
However I don’t like MSSql server, first of all it is hard to configure, finding solutions to problems is not an easy task, it has lots of dependencies scattered around the hard disk. Hail mysql and firebird.
Let there be Fire – morfik site revamped , WebOS AppsBuilder released
Today I was glad to see the new website of Morfik Technology was unveiled. Along with a totally redesigned web site, comes the public release of a test version of the their WebOS AppsBuilder tool. These transformations probably reflect a move by Morfik, to bring the development of the WebOS AppsBuilder into the light, after being kept in the shadows for quite some time.
Ed:if you don’t know what is the link between firebird and morfik here is an e-mail interview with the Morfik team

firebird in shutdown mode
Shutdown mode prevents everyone other than SYSDBA and the owner from
connecting.
This allows you to safely run metadata scripts etc and be sure no-one
else is connected while this happens.
