ICU ya no se usa para la Globalizacion en Mono (ICU is no longer used for globalization in Mono)

enzo writes that he wanted to work on the project MonoUML, led by  Mario Carrión, but has discovered that Mono has deprecated the use of ICU and that the internationalization is being programmed by  Atsushi Eno. So he is still wondering about where he can put his talents to work.

Plantillas en WACT (Templates in WACT)

In  Php y otras yerbas,  clbustos  explains that PHP is already a template language and that templates systems such as  WACT  can be very useful, but not always necessary. In another area of the site, clbustos demonstrates a very elegant way of separating the logic from the screen design code.

Conquista el mundo con Java (Conquering the world with java)

Juanjo Navarro in  más que código has found another weblog that he likes thanks to Planet Código. This is  design-nation published by  César y Javier Tardáguila. I followed this link, although doing so is not within the scope of this weblog, and found a nice comparison of the old Newton against modern PDAs. Actually, Juanjo Navarro wanted to highlight two articles in design-nation:  Prototype and  Extensions Objects. Both of these are also outside the scope of my work, but involve a certain Professor Dispar (Sp: Different) who want to dominate the world by using his skills in programming. In these articles he puts his Java skills to use in cloning sheep and cows.
