Linux Certification Group Launches Survey
|
|
</font>
|
|
</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
April 1, 1999 -- The Linux Professional Institute (LPI) today announced
|
|
the launch of a survey to be taken by Linux system administrators. The
|
|
survey's results will be used in the development of a professional
|
|
certification program.
|
|
<P>
|
|
This survey (located on the web at <A HREF="http://www.lpi.org/cgi-bin/jass.py">
|
|
http://www.lpi.org/cgi-bin/jass.py</A>)
|
|
is open to the public, and all Linux administrators are encouraged to
|
|
participate.
|
|
<P>
|
|
"We have always been a community organization," said LPI executive
|
|
director Evan Leibovitch. "The survey is just a continuation of our open
|
|
process, and commitment to meet the needs of Linux users."
|
|
<P>
|
|
The survey takes between 15 and 30 minutes to complete. Running until
|
|
mid-April, its data will assist the LPI in designing the exam-based
|
|
program it will use to certify Linux professionals. It is one of the early
|
|
steps in the development of the LPI's three-level program, detailed at its
|
|
website at <A HREF="http://www.lpi.org/">http://www.lpi.org/</A>.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The LPI is a non-profit, vendor-independent organization with more than
|
|
200 participants.

Debian Touts Integrated SGML Environment
|
|
</font>
|
|
</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 10:41:44 -0500
|
|
Debian's 2.1 distribution, now in release, features integrated SGML,
|
|
XML, and DSSSL infrastructure and packages. Debian's innovative SGML
|
|
subsystem positions Debian as a premier platform for SGML and XML
|
|
developers, offering a complete working toolset for documenters and
|
|
markup programmers with no manual setup required.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Features:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>James Clark's jade 1.2.1 and SP suite version 1.3.3,
|
|
enabling validation and formatting of SGML or XML
|
|
http://www.jclark.com/jade/.
|
|
<li>SGMLOpen shared system catalog integration (no need to manually
|
|
register SGML Public Identifiers or set with environment
|
|
variables).
|
|
<li>docbook (v3.0) and docbook-stylesheets (v1.13) available, providing
|
|
an industry-standard markup convention
|
|
http://www.ora.com/davenport/
|
|
<li>psgml, which in conjunction with Emacs19, Emacs20, XEmacs19, or
|
|
XEmacs20, provides a profession SGML editing environment.
|
|
http://www.lysator.liu.se/projects/about_psgml.html
|
|
<li>jadetex, combined with jade, facilitates the conversion of SGML to
|
|
PostScript or PDF, for high quality printed output.
|
|
<li>a host of other SGML, XML, and DSSSL software packages are
|
|
available, including but not limited to sgml-tools, expat,
|
|
sdc, perlsgml, sgmlspm, and dsc.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
We believe that Debian's open model of participation and committment
|
|
to system quality (as reflected in the Debian Policy
|
|
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/) puts Debian
|
|
head-and-shoulders above other commercial or free systems. SGML
|
|
integration efforts continue apace in the unstable distribution,
|
|
including DocBook 3.1, DocBk XML, TEI, and more DTDs.

PKZIP LINUX: A Step Ahead
|
|
<P>
|
|
Miamisburg, OHIO -- (March 30, 1999)<BR>
|
|
With a 32-bit algorithm, PKZIP UNIX zips LINUX files up to 2GB of
|
|
uncompressed data and creates a single, compressed archive resulting in
|
|
an
|
|
average savings in disk storage space of 50-70%, with some database and
|
|
spreadsheet compressing to 1/10th the original size.
|
|
<P>
|
|
PKZIP UNIX is cross-platform compatible with the entire line of PKZIP
|
|
products including the AS/400, DOS, Macintosh, MVS, OS/2, VM, VMS, VSE
|
|
environments, MultiZip for NetWare and Nico Mak Computing's WinZip. A
|
|
self-extractor program is included so that zipped files can be utilized
|
|
other LINUX users. With a self-extractor attachment (SFX), PKZIP is
|
|
launched
|
|
when the zipped file is opened.
|
|
<P>
|
|
This product is available at
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.pkziplinux.com/">http://www.pkziplinux.com/</A> as shareware for $24.99.

HP OpenMail/VirtualVault news
|
|
</font>
|
|
</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
PALO ALTO, Calif., March 30, 1999 -- Hewlett-Packard Company today
|
|
announced a new program that combines HP OpenMail with the HP
|
|
VirtualVault trusted Web platform, enabling organizations to reduce the
|
|
costs of supporting remote e-mail users dramatically while greatly
|
|
simplifying access.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The integration of OpenMail and VirtualVault eliminates the need for
|
|
remote users to rely on dial-up networking or carry a laptop to access
|
|
e-mail from remote locations. OpenMail users simply access an
|
|
SSL-secured URL from any device with an Internet browser, including
|
|
PDAs, Web phones, walk-up terminals and PCs. The browser accesses
|
|
OpenMail Web client software located on a VirtualVault server. The
|
|
server then connects users to their OpenMail accounts on OpenMail
|
|
servers inside the corporate firewall.
|
|
<P>
|
|
With this solution, companies can reduce their investment in
|
|
remote-access systems, private networking, and associated support and
|
|
help-desk staff. HP estimates that it can cost organizations up to $500
|
|
annually to support a remote user. By using OpenMail with VirtualVault,
|
|
organizations can reduce these costs by as much as 75 percent.
|
|

Salon Adopts Linux
|

</font>

|
|
<P>
|
|
San Francisco, April 5 -- Salon.com (<A HREF="http://www.salon.com/">
|
|
http://www.salon.com/</A>), formerly known as
|
|
Salon Magazine, has adopted Linux as its enterprise Internet server
|
|
platform. The adoption of Linux, and the new Web address, coincide with a
|
|
site redesign that launched today.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The server platform has moved from Windows NT to a customized version of
|
|
the Red Hat 5.2 distribution of Linux. The site is moving its critical
|
|
business functions, Web serving and ad serving to the Linux platform in
|
|
order to support Salon.com's growing needs.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Says Chad Dickerson, Vice President of Technology, "For a growing company
|
|
like Salon, Linux is the best of all worlds. It's a proven technology, it's
|
|
low cost and high performance, and it's broadly supported. The robustness
|
|
and stability of the Linux operating system make it ideal for
|
|
mission-critical applications."
|
|
<P>
|
|
According to Dickerson, Linux will provide a solid technical backbone to
|
|
support Salon's move from a magazine-based model to a network of web sites.
|
|
The site redesign needs the versatility and power of Linux to keep pace
|
|
with its growing business and e-commerce needs.
|
|
<P>
|
|
A key factor in the decision to adopt Linux was the availability of Real
|
|
Media's industry-leading Open Ad Stream advertising software for use with
|
|
Linux and the Apache web server.

New Java Tools Available At http://sourceware.cygnus.com

</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 7, 1999 - Cygnus Solutions, the leader in open
|
|
source software, today announced the immediate availability the Cygnus
|
|
GNU Compiler Java Edition (GCJ) complete with open source Java
|
|
libraries. Now all Java application developers can take advantage of the
|
|
significant performance gains offered by GCJ, a Java compiler built with
|
|
GNU compiler technology that allows Java source code and Java byte codes
|
|
to be compiled to native instructions. The Java libraries (java.lang,
|
|
java.util, java.io, java.test, and java.net) and compiler are available
|
|
in source form on <A HREF="http://Sourceware.cygnus.com/">
|
|
http://Sourceware.cygnus.com</A>.
|
|
<P>
|
|
GCJ allows developers to write applications in the Java programming
|
|
language for the Linux OS. By compiling to machine code rather than
|
|
bytecode, Cygnus Java Compiler technology enhances application
|
|
performance more that twenty times than an interpreted application.

TCL/TK in a Nutshell Release
|
|
</font>
|
|
</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
April 12, 1999<BR>
|
|
Sebastopol, CA--The Tcl language and Tk graphical toolkit are simple
|
|
and powerful building blocks for custom applications. The Tcl/Tk
|
|
combination is increasingly popular because it lets you produce
|
|
sophisticated graphical interfaces with a few easy commands, develop
|
|
and change scripts quickly, and conveniently tie together existing
|
|
utilities or programming libraries.
|
|
<P>
|
|
One of the attractive features of Tcl/Tk is the wide variety of
|
|
commands, many offering a wealth of options. Most of the things you'd
|
|
like to do have been anticipated by the language's creator, John
|
|
Ousterhout, or one of the developers of Tcl/Tk's many powerful
|
|
extensions. Thus, you'll find that a command or option probably exists
|
|
to provide just what you need. Keep TCL/TK in a Nutshell on your desk as you write
|
|
scripts, and you'll be able to find almost instantly the particular
|
|
option you need.

|
|
rewrite of AGI's flagship, EasyCopy/X, which has an installed base of
|
|
more than 150,000 users worldwide. With this new generation EasyCopy has
|
|
taken a major step from a printing solution to a flexible set of image
|
|
communication tools. And it runs on Linux.
|
|
<P>
|
|
EasyCopy/X 6.0 comes with a new Graphical User Interface, an integrated
|
|
image viewer and a fast image browser. For image printing the new GUI
|
|
offers complete control of the printer setup and improved selection of
|
|
page layout and color options. WYSIWYG preview assists the user in
|
|
printing or saving the image with the right options.
|
|

|
|
EasyCapture which gives the user the option of screen capture from the
|
|
GUI, from the command-line, or via a hot-key=97easy definition of hot-key

imports a wide range of common CAD and DTP image file formats. Filters
|
|
can be installed to import virtually any image or graphics file format;
|
|
and EasyCopy 6.0 is preconfigured with a number of popular filters.
|
|
Printing and viewing assure that black/white as well as color image data
|
|
will receive superior attention. You can remove background colors
|
|
whenever it is appropriate to combine the sharpest output with saving
|
|
money on ink or toner. You can communicate data via paper or
|
|
transparencies using the printer of your choice or through the companion
|
|
product, EasyConvert, share the data with applications demanding a
|
|
different file format.

Date: Sun, 7 Mar 1999 20:52:15 GMT<BR>
|
|
We have a dream: spreding Linux between the masses. This requires
|
|
making it easy to use. But it also requires to start thinking in
|
|
those people who are not using or will not be using Linux as a
|
|
traditional Unix. In those people who have to administer the box
|
|
before knowing the simplest of the Unix commands. In those who will be
|
|
using it at home and have a different idea of fun than C programming.
|
|
It will require to stop thinking everyone is in a LAN or the box is
|
|
powered up 24h a day. It will require to stop thinking Linux will be
|
|
used only as a server or a programmers workstation.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The high cost of Unix banned it outside many areas of use. Linux can
|
|
go where Unix never went but fulfilling those differents needs will
|
|
not be reached by designing Linux distributions as just a cheap
|
|
version of UNIX.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The Independence distribution is licensed under the GPL. It is
|
|
developped not for profit by a small group of volunteers. Not for
|
|
profit means we don't ourselves distribute it on CDROM but we will
|
|
help anyone interested in doing it. Small group means you can make a
|
|
difference if you contribute.

SAP, a German Enterprise Business Solution Software Company ( The biggest -
|
|
beats peoplesoft jdedwards, baan etc ), has announced support for
|
|
Linux, with first cutomer shipment 3rd Q this year. This will be
|
|
unveiled at CeBit 99. The significance of this may not be immediately
|
|
apparent, but basically this will mean that the stranglehold
|
|
Microsoft has on the desktop environment of SAP customers can now be
|
|
broken with the client GUI software becoming available for Linux. Not
|
|
to mention other features of SAPs Internet related connectivity and
|
|
general realtime interfacing components no longer being reliant on NT.
|
|
This product is three tier, relying primarily on an Oracle, or
|
|
Informix Database backend (hence other recent news).

Linux on Quad 750 PPC SBC
|

|
|
<P>
|
|
March 1, 1999, San Diego, CA -- Synergy Microsystems, Inc. today announced
|
|
that it has successfully run Linux with Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) on
|
|
a quad-PowerPC 750 CPU board, running at 433 MHz. SMP allows the operating
|
|
system to dynamically balance the processing load among the four
|
|
processors. This allows the most efficient use of the four processors,
|
|
resulting in performance up to four times faster than a single-processor
|
|
board. This is the first time this level of performance has been achieved,
|
|
and the first time Linux has been offered on a VMEbus single board
|
|
computer.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The PowerPC 750 is currently available at speeds as high as 433 MHz. In
|
|
addition, the processor features its own private L2 cache that can be
|
|
accessed at up to 300 MHz. Four such processors in a system provide a very
|
|
powerful compute engine for high-end general-purpose needs, digital signal
|
|
processing (DSP), array processing and server applications.
