Andrew McVeigh takes us on a tour of the rich heritage behind dependency injection, what it represents, and tells us why its here to stay.
Java, the OLPC, and community responsibility
The "One Laptop Per Child" project has a great device ready to ship, but there's no Java on there. Let's think about working together to put Java on OLPC!
Generic connector

Generic connector.
When I try to add a new repository, I only get three choices, Bugzilla,
Jira and Trac. The Generic Connector is not available.
The current set of features are:
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.pde_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.jira_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.sdk_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.trac_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.java_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.context_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.ide_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.bugzilla_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.team_feature
3.0.1.v20080721-2100-e3x org.eclipse.mylyn.extras_sdk_feature
5.0.0.200806171202 org.eclipse.cdt.mylyn
First, it seems strange to me that the Generic Connector is not installed by
default, but accepting that connectors need to be installed as a separate
step, can anyone point me to an update site that has the Generic Connector?
Or, tell me what I'm doing wrong (always a possibility) that the Generic
Connector is not getting installed.
Thanks
