http://java.dzone.com/articles/current en http://java.dzone.com/articles/how-do-you-rate-yourself Just yesterday I received the book "Pragmatic Thinking and Learning: Refactor Your Wetware" by Andy Hunt. I browsed through the TOC, read the introduction and started the second chapter "Journey from Novice to Expert". Even though it was quite late in the night, I just couldn't put the book down until I finished this chapter. http://java.dzone.com/articles/how-do-you-rate-yourself#comments http://java.dzone.com/crss/node/5402 Fri, 10 Oct 2008 06:50:30 -0400 1332 15 meera http://java.dzone.com/sites/all/files/avatars/picture-8.jpg Fri, 10 Oct 2008 06:50:30 -0400 meera 5402 at http://java.dzone.com http://java.dzone.com/news/groovy-157-and-16-beta2-releas This is with great pleasure that the Groovy development team and G2One announce the joint release of both Groovy 1.5.7 -- current stable and maintenance branch -- and Groovy 1.6-beta-2 -- the upcoming major release.   http://java.dzone.com/news/groovy-157-and-16-beta2-releas#comments Announcement groovy release Groovy http://java.dzone.com/crss/node/5404 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 17:40:50 -0400 1419 5 aalmiray http://java.dzone.com/sites/all/files/avatars/picture-168451.jpg Thu, 09 Oct 2008 17:40:50 -0400 aalmiray 5404 at http://java.dzone.com http://java.dzone.com/announcements/jgraph-x-beta-initial-release The first public beta of the new JGraph Swing architecture JGraph X (http://www.jgraph.com/jgraphx.html), the new Java Swing Diagramming Library, has been released in beta form.
