MyZilla - Bugzilla desktop client...


We all know what bugzilla is, But still i am mentioning for them who heard it first time.

In software development, we keep track of problems in some kind of database system. We call them 'Bugs', not those creatures :). There are some cool software systems provided for bug tracking. Bugzilla is one nice bug tracking web based tool, which can keep track of all our bugs and having many cool features.

Rather then writing myself lets see what they say about it,
Bugzilla is a "Defect Tracking System" or "Bug-Tracking System". Defect Tracking Systems allow individual or groups of developers to keep track of outstanding bugs in their product effectively. Most commercial defect-tracking software vendors charge enormous licensing fees. Despite being "free", Bugzilla has many features its expensive counterparts lack.
MyZilla is a free desktop client for Bugzilla bug tracking system. By providing the means of working with a desktop application, it increases the productivity of all project members.

Here’s a short list of what’s new in MyZilla 1.2:

Enhancements
* Http basic authentication implemented.
* Access bugzilla server configured on different port that the standar one.
* For unknown file types, open with window is shown (for attachment and export files).
* Attachment icon column added to the query results grid.
* Attachment list accesible from the bug preview pane.
* Menu option for checking new MyZilla version.
* Enhanced search for bugs(search criteria using any of the bugzilla fields).
* MailTo functinality for the asignee and reporter fields.
Some of the bug fixes in 1.2
* CC and assignedTo list were not accesible in certain bugzilla configurations.
* Character encoding was not properly handled. National specific characters were not properly send to the bugzilla server.
* Some fields were not retrived and displayed in search grid.
* Exporting failed when due to width of the page.
* Date format fields not always correct handled.

Bonjour - Zeroconf Service discovery protocol


Hi everyone, sorry i have been too busy since last 2 months in my new job. You know guys when we change job we need to learn lots of new things (Specifically, we IT guys :( ).

Now everyone has this problem that which protocol should be used for local corporate LAN chat.Basically now a days many things are available but i think most popular one is jabber.

You can simple go to jabber.org, get good open source/freeware jabber server and client, and chat on LAN. But this needs your company to install jabber server on local server, and they can see what you are chatting in logs :).

So better you get bonjour from Apple, which is a zero config protol. It will automatically detects all PCs and printers in LAN and show you in you buddy list. You just get it from apple's site and intall you specific OS version. As a client, you can use Pidgin.

Check the image for pidgin configuration of bonjour on you local network.You must install the bonjour library from Apple which is free.

andLinux : Linux on windows


andLinux is a complete Ubuntu Linux system running seamlessly in Windows 2000 based systems (2000, XP, 2003, Vista; 32-bit versions only). This project was started for Dynamism for the GP2X community, but its userbase far exceeds its original design. andLinux is free and will remain so, but donations are greatly needed.

andLinux uses coLinux as its core which is confusing for many people. coLinux is a port of the Linux kernel to Windows. Although this technology is a bit like running Linux in a virtual machine, coLinux differs itself by being more of a merger of Windows and the Linux kernel and not an emulated PC, making it more efficient. Xming is used as X server and PulseAudio as sound server.

andLinux is not just for development and runs almost all Linux applications without modification.

ManicTime: Personal time management application

ManicTime automatically collects data on your computer usage. It records active and away time, as well as which applications you used and for how long you used them.



The data ManicTime collects is stored in a local database on your computer. Collected data is not transmitted anywhere or shared with anyone. Only you have access to it, which means no privacy concerns.
Having a local database also enables you to use ManicTime offline, without an Internet connection.

Collected data is presented using timelines. There are three predefined timelines:
  • Activity: Shows your active time and away(idle) time
  • Applications: Shows which application you used, when and for how long
  • Tags: Shows tags you created. This timeline is not automatically generated it is filled with time tags you entered.
When you move your mouse over a timeline, each timeline shows you a hint about an underlying activity. Hint displays detailed information about an activity such as title, application name, start and end times and duration.
