ASU Fork Report: Sun Devils sink Navy Midshipmen in Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl
Originally published: Dec 29, 2012 - 6:21 pm
Sure, you could read the box score and know who won, but we all know that won't tell you everything that happened in a football game. So, we will give you a Fork Report, providing you with the analysis, quotes and notes from ASU's game against Navy on December 29. Final score: Arizona State 62, Navy 28.
The Good:
Quarterback Taylor Kelly led the most prolific offensive attack in ASU bowl game history with four passing touchdowns and his first career rushing score. He threw for 268 yards, completing 17-of-19 pass attempts (the two incompletions were drops).
Rashad Ross finished his Sun Devil career with a season-high 139 yards receiving and three touchdowns while Marion Grice paced the rushing attack with a season-high 159 yards and two touchdowns. Grice was named the game's offensive MVP, only a week after learning his brother had been murdered in Houston.
Defensively, Will Sutton earned Defensive MVP honors with four tackles and 2.5 sacks
The Bad:
Injuries. All-American freshman D.J. Foster (head) and senior linebacker Brandon Magee (right elbow) did not return after leaving the game in the first and third quarters, respectively.
He Said It:
"We'll know in due time," Sutton said in response to a question about his playing future and whether that means continuing his career at ASU or turning his attention to the NFL.
� The Sun Devils got their first bowl win since the 2005 Insight Bowl, snapping a three-game postseason losing streak.
� Todd Graham becomes the first ASU head coach to beat Arizona and win a bowl game in his first season.
� Chris Coyle becomes the Sun Devils' single-season receptions leader by a tight end, passing Zach Miller (56).
� Alex Garoutte had made 100 consecutive PATs before a miss late in the second quarter.
Coming Up Next:
The Sun Devils end the 2012 season with an 8-5 record. The eight wins are the most since a 10-win 2007 campaign in Dennis Erickson's first year as head coach.

Review: Rihanna, Frank Ocean keep it simple amid Grammy spectacle
The Grammy Awards are known — at least in the minds of people susceptible to corporate branding efforts — as Music's Biggest Night. But at the 55th ceremony, televised Sunday from Staples Center, it wasn't the grand production numbers that stood out but the smaller, more intimate moments.

My family had an impromptu get together in Atlanta recently and many of us stayed at the Inman Park Bed and Breakfast. It was delightful. Our hostess made our stay comfortable and relaxing. The beds were great. The fact that our family did not have to share the place made it even better. I would recommend staying as a group.... More

- Inman Park Bed and Breakfast was orignally a residence built in 1912 for Robert W. Woodruff, Atlanta's famous anonymous donor and Coca-Cola soft-drink magnate.

Iris Tyrell
'Tis new to thee.
Sex: Female
Age: Seems to be in her late twenties or early thirties
Physical Description
Above average height, Iris has a lean physique, not unlike a professional dancer. While she carries an obvious strength, her body is more flowing, elegant motion than cords and knots of power. She has fair skin without the flawlessness of youth nor the deep creases of years, lending her features a kind of ageless look; she could be anywhere from her mid-twenties to a well-preserved late thirties. Her wide, clear eyes are the greys and blues of dawn, with just the beginning of smile lines at the corners. The rest of her features are pleasant and pretty, and while she has a more girl-next-door look than a coquettishly wicked one, nothing about her speaks of naiveté or doe-eyed innocence. Her hair is straight and dark and hangs a little lower than her shoulder blades, usually pulled back in a messy tail with strands falling around her face. She has a collection of piercings in each ear, irregularly rotating between studs, bright metal ornaments, gemstones, or thin, fine chains. She wears a thin metal ring with a small, many-faceted blue stone and has no normally-visible tattoos or scars. Her hands are strong, with long, quick fingers and smooth callouses.
Her clothes are practical and functional, though cut in a way that displays the figure underneath. She prefers trousers, a button-down shirt and her nearly floor-length duster-style coat. She wears heavy, steel-capped boots and usually carries a leather bag across her body, large enough to carry a book, supplies, or anything else but not so large as to be remarkable.
Brief History
Iris, from the outside, is something of an enigma. She has spent much of her life moving from place to place in the Blue, never really settling down for any real period of time. In that time, however, she has tended to make more friends than enemies, travel extensively, and make something of a name for herself by buying passage on ships with her skills as an inveterate tinkerer and breathtaking mechanic. If any of the captains she's served with got together, they may notice that no two of them have gotten the same story as to where she came from. Maybe they wouldn't find it that unusual; there are a lot of people who don't care to talk about who they really are. They would agree that it seems unlikely she has any family, though.
For the last couple of years, Iris has served as the chief (and only) engineer of a skyship called the Owl, and, for the first time she can remember, it feels like home. She's even allowed herself to own more things than she can comfortably fit in a backpack.
Motivation: Life. Not survival, not existing day to day, but life, with all its joys and horrors and terrible, glorious freedoms.
Personality: Usually pleasant, even cheerful but often with a kind of intangible, difficult to define distance. Practical, capable, and hard-working, and endlessly, incessantly curious. When she thinks nobody is looking, occasionally prone to what seems to be a reflective melancholy. Not a black, destructive depression, though.
Worth noting is that Iris speaks with an accent that shares almost nothing with any of the people of the Worldshards. Wherever it comes from, it's probably also the source of the liquid, rolling curse words she uses when something goes wrong.
Traits and Tags:
Construct: Strong, Unnatural, Lonely, Power Source
Engineer: Mechanic, Repair, Invention, Black Powder, Salvage, Ships, Devices, Improvise
Explorer: Curious, Ancient Lore, History, Languages, Myths, Decipher
Inventor: Steam, Novel, (Apparently) Crackpot, Gears
A pen that never seems to run out of ink, doubles as an impossibly fine engraving stylus. It somehow seems alien, and the dull metal it's made from doesn't seem like anything you normally see in the Blue.
A side-by-side shotgun, well-made with an oiled walnut stock and forearm.
Her ring, which does not appear to be otherwise remarkable. It is not made of the same material as her pen.
A six-string acoustic guitar. The maker's mark is from a luthier in Ilysium. The case is battered but the instrument itself is well taken care of.
Leather bag with a collection of necessities, including a set of sturdy, lightweight tools and enough money to buy passage away from any of the worlds around Stella.
Notes: You're going to find out a lot more about Iris through the course of the game. Don't worry, I'm not lazy, I just don't want to spoil the mystery!
Concept: A fish out of water/stranger in a strange land. This will get less vague as the story goes along.
A Place in Heaven - Thomas Bergersen

Council claims it is on top of road hell
10:00am Monday 18th February 2013 in News By Mark Taylor, Reporter. Please call me on (01865) 425411
OXFORDSHIRE County Council has said it is on top of pothole repairs amid growing public complaints about the state of the roads.
But it has admitted that if money was no object, it could spend at least another £10m on top of what it had put aside to fix the numerous hollowed-out hazards.
Deputy council leader Rodney Rose said he felt the repairs team was coping well as ice, floods and snow combined to open up chunks of road surface.
This financial year, the council estimates it will have to carry out 32,000 repairs.
The Oxford Mail was inundated with responses, pictures and tales of crumbling roads when we asked residents to show proof.
Mr Rose denied the council was failing in its duty to maintain the roads as the number of potholes repaired in Oxfordshire has more than trebled in five years.
He said: "If I could I would completely resurface the roads every 10 years and we'd never see a pothole, but we simply haven't got the money.
"I appreciate that it is an issue that people get angry with but I think we are doing a good job, in fact I don't believe anyone could do a better job given the cash we have.
"Our roads stand up to anywhere else in the country considering what we have. I'd challenge anyone to find a better standard.
"We would need another £10m on top of what we are spending for structural maintenance.
"We're likely to be spending about £14.5m on the roads in the coming year. I think we're doing well considering the weather we are having. It's caused problems the like I have never seen before, with all the wet and the frost.
"There are so many pothole reports coming through now it is all we can do to keep up.
"Water and road surfaces do not get on. If you factor in all the rain, and then the frost digging in and expanding, it explains why the roads crumble. It takes a lot of resurfacing. I would urge anyone who sees a pothole to report it to us so we can go out and have a look."
In 2008/09, Oxfordshire County Council repaired 8,902 potholes, but by 2011/12 that number had doubled. It said by the end of March it was likely to have repaired about 32,000 defects since April 2012.
But it declined to state how many it had fixed this year to date.
And it did not respond when asked how much of the £14.5m roads budget would be spent solely on repairing roads.
- Around Carfax and St Aldate's, Oxford city centre.
- Kennington Road by St Withun's School in Grundy Crescent, Kennington.
- Southern Ring Road, between Redbridge park-and-ride and Sainsbury's Heyford Hill, South Oxford.
- Outside Berinsfield Co-op.
- Cowley Road, near Gillians Way, East Oxford.
- Walterbush Road, Chipping Norton.
- Main Road and Poplar Grove in Kennington.
- Councils are required by law to fix potholes within 28 days. Oxfordshire County Council says it aims to repair most serious potholes within 24 hours.
- Members of the public can report potholes by calling 0845 310 11 11 or by visiting http://oxfordshire.gov.uk/cms/content/potholes

And yet you say you could spend another £10 million fixing potholes. Either you are NOT on top of the problem or someone at the Council is a complete moron.

Comments about EPSON� 78 High-Definition Ink Cartridge; Black:
the quality of the epson ink cartridges is excellent. the only negatives are price and short duration of use. please....a little more ink or a few cents less in cost.
Excellent Product
By John

This ink dries fast, is excellent on documents and graphs. It is very easy to replace in the printer. The cartridge lasts well but I wished it lasted longer for the price.

Good product
By Carol the Editor
from Xenia, OH
This cartridge works fine, I just wish there were more ink in each one.
I buy this product again and again.
By DDB
from Castaic, CA
This is a very good product.
They don't last! Buy the high output one
By Harry
from South Shore MA
I recycle a lot of ink cartridges at Staples, earning $2 each per month(up to ten) with their rewards program. There is nothing like spending the rewards $$ at Staples while knowing they are doing the right thing with the empties! Problem is that they don't or can't carry the high output cartridges from Epson, which DO last considerably longer. I buy the ink when the rewards pay for most of it, and have asked if they could carry the other high Cap. ones. Also, the people that work at my local Staples are always happy to help with any questions you have. In fact, they are happy when you have done your homework and are able to show them that there is a better "Staples" mouse trap.(A sale price not working, or something not jiving with the current flyer.)
Cartridge Critique
By Mr G
from Albuquerque,NM
Because of the So So Catridge life & the cost is a bit pricey.
Original Equipment Cartridge is the best
By Bob
from Woden, Iowa
About Me Heavy Duty User
As indicated above I have discovered that only original equipment cartridges work in my Epson printer. I have tried refilled cartridges. I have tried knockoff look alike brands and they have not worked either. I have tried store brand replacement cartdridges and they also do not work very well. Only genuine Epson 78 cartridges work properly in my printer. I have tried a wide variety of printer cartridges from a wide and varied list of suppliers. I have always come back to the Epson original equipment cartridges. Epson original equipment cartridges are heavy duty. Epson original equipment cartridges create a quick dry image. Epson original equipment cartridges create clear and sharp images which do an ecellent job. Epson original equipment cartridges have proven to last a long, long time. They do not lose their color or hue.
It's my ink
By Mom
from Forsyth, GA
I like my printer, therefore I need the ink.
Does the job
By ubgrad68
from Grand Blanc, MI
Epson 77 is more cost effective, but 78 is in stock more often.

Hey big spender!
This is not good.
WASHINGTON - George W. Bush, despite all his recent bravado about being an apostle of small government and budget-slashing, is the biggest spending president since Lyndon B. Johnson. In fact, he's arguably an even bigger spender than LBJ.
"He's a big government guy," said Stephen Slivinski, the director of budget studies at Cato Institute, a libertarian research group.
The numbers are clear, credible and conclusive, added David Keating, the executive director of the Club for Growth, a budget-watchdog group.
"He's a big spender," Keating said. "No question about it."
Take almost any yardstick and Bush generally exceeds the spending of his predecessors.
When adjusted for inflation, discretionary spending - or budget items that Congress and the president can control, including defense and domestic programs, but not entitlements such as Social Security and Medicare - shot up at an average annual rate of 5.3 percent during Bush's first six years, Slivinski calculates.
That tops the 4.6 percent annual rate Johnson logged during his 1963-69 presidency. By these standards, Ronald Reagan was a tightwad; discretionary spending grew by only 1.9 percent a year on his watch.
Let's keep in mind that this happened WITH a Republican congress to work with. Now Bush doesn't get all the blame, as Congress has to pass the budgets...but he certainly could have found his veto pen much sooner in his tenure.
This is pretty much why the GOP doesn't win the "fiscally accountable" tag in most public opinion polls anymore which, along with "national security" and "low taxes" was the lone non-social issue categories where the GOP would out poll Democrats.
There's a lesson there.

About Me Practical
I purchased this dining set to use in my family dining room. I love the look of it. I didn't like assembling it, but got through it. The metal and cushion materials are very nice. Two of the chairs wobble a little but that could be due to the ceramic tile floor surface OR the assembly process. We can take care of that issue though. We have received a lot of compliments on it.

More than half of all mobile phone subscribers in the United States own smartphones, according to a recent Nielsen estimate. To cater toward the growing trend of mobile applications, technology companies are developing new solutions that allow hotel employees to wirelessly connect to property management systems.
Property management systems (PMS) provide hotel employees with essential tools to efficiently perform their daily tasks, which include handling reservations, checking guests in and out, assigning rooms, managing room inventory, accommodating guest needs, and handling accounting and billing.
When using a mobile PMS solution, employees can provide guest services without the confines of a desk. On-the-go hotel operators and managers of multiple properties can stay aware of their guests, have constant access to hotel data, and make important business decisions.
Scott Gowdish, director of development, hotel e-commerce solutions, for MICROS Systems Inc., says mobile PMS solutions increase efficiency at hotels. Alerts are delivered directly to handheld devices, such as smartphones and tablets, and modifications can be made on the fly.
"It provides more information and quick access to information to anyone on the property," Gowdish says. "You don't need to be sitting at a terminal to get updates on room status or updates on occupancy."
When MICROS client feedback indicated a demand for quick check-in and check-out applications distributed over the Web, the company developed a mobile PMS solution called OPERA2Go, which has since been implemented at three pilot properties, including Trump Hotel Collection's Soho and Chicago properties. The solution is fully Web-enabled, which means it doesn't require an app to be loaded, and works on all mobile devices.
Functionality of the agent-facing user interface includes reservation look-ups, check in and out, room assignments, special requests, profile management, room availability, housekeeping room status task sheets, and key reports. General managers and front desk managers can access due-in reports on the mobile platform so they can provide service to guests anywhere on or off the property.
Network capabilities aren't typically a concern, Gowdish says, because most properties with any kind of interconnectivity should be able to support the solution. Rather than delivering huge data chunks across the device, he says, the solution is compact across the interface.
While concierges and guest services members who roam properties have more mobile ability, Gowdish says there will always be a need for front desk terminals. More in-depth tasks, such as managing guest profiles and managing reservations, don't always scale well to handheld devices.
"As devices get better resolution and as they get better access to the local networks in properties," Gowdish says, "you'll start to see more services being delivered this way."
As smart mobile devices became more widespread, Multi-Systems Inc. (MSI) introduced a hotel-facing mobile application for internal functions that works with the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. Called the nTouch, it works in conjunction with the company's WinPM solution to provide real-time access to hotel data via Internet connection. Staff members can check availability, look up VIP guests, manage room status, and monitor ADR and occupancy.
The ability to constantly monitor hotel performance allows general managers to more effectively manage their inventory and rates, says Rick Munson, CEO of MSI. "It directly impacts your profitability," he says.
The nTouch allows staff to manage each property individually and gain access to each hotel's key data. A general manager of multiple hotels can access all information, from guest arrivals lists to occupancy stats, from his single nTouch application. "He gets to look at daily stats for multiple hotels from one phone anywhere in the world," Munson says.
A housekeeper can use her mobile device to update the status of a room from dirty to clean, and it will automatically communicate to the PMS so the front desk staff knows the room is ready. If an available room suddenly has a leaky pipe, the engineer can immediately take it out of inventory. "The bottom line is, it's improving the guest experience," Munson says.
To build on nTouch capabilities, MSI is in the final stages of completing a customer-facing component that will allow guests to bypass the front desk when checking in or out. The question is, will guests use it? "All hotels are saying yes they will," Munson says. Airlines allow travelers to use boarding passes that are sent straight to their smartphones, so he sees a similar concept working in hotels. "If you can get on an airplane, why not get into a hotel?"
Munson says MSI is working with Square, a card reader that plugs into mobile devices, so that roaming staff members who greet guests can swipe and process credit cards for check in. MSI also is working with other suppliers on keyless technology that would allow guests to unlock their hotel room door with their smartphones. "We, as the property management system supplier, need to send a signal to the phone so that the phone gets the correct room number," Munson explains.
All of the pieces are integrated through MSI's cloud system. "That's the miracle of today's cloud computing," Munson says. "It's a platform that really brings a tremendous amount of value."
MICROS is developing a business-to-consumer solution called webHotel, an eCommerce product and services platform that leverages OPERA-based hotel and customer data to attract online travel consumers. It allows customers to search for reservations, browse, and book in one place. A business-to-consumer mobile app also is in pilot, through which guests can book reservations and customize their hotel stay.
Gowdish acknowledges that becoming an early adopter in emerging technologies can be a "death sentence." He advises hotels to partner with technology companies that will provide the right solutions without putting the properties too much at risk. "In our industry, in general, we're all very cost conscious," Gowdish says. "We know how horrible the economy has been to us."

I have one 'special' category which only serves to unpack any downloads belonging to that category onto another drive, i.e. the folder for this category has an absolute path (e.g. "W:\") - thus no subdirectory under the default download directory...
this worked pretty much perfect in my previous version(s) but stopped working in 0.6.15; for any downloads in that category I now got the new error that the download-folder <name> couldn't be created - which is BS, there's nothing special about that drive, I can create any directory I want on that drive via explorer; this error even persists, when I started sabnzbd as admin...
please fix asap - I meanwhile go back to the latest version where this still worked (couldn't tell what version that was, gotta try ...)

When you are driving your car to head to a family trip, and one of the kids pipes up just about every five minutes to ask "Are we there yet?? you will be glad you read through this post, because I bring to you six game apps which are developed just for kids. So, all you need to do is hand them the iPhone, and let them enjoy a game, or check out some fascinating and educational content material. Listed here are the free top iPhone apps for kids and they are organized based on the kid's age.
Game Apps Made For Toddlers
"Where is Gumbo" is an animation game app wherein the toddlers are supposed to look and peek right behind some objects in a certain?setting to search for the pet, Gumbo the dog.
Colorama is a game app for the imaginatively inclined kids. The game includes over 50 drawings that can be colored by the kid as he wishes. Once he finished the coloring, the sketches can be saved and emailed, and you can also print them out. To see a drawing done by them-selves above their mattress can be a great feeling for any kid!
Game Apps For Younger Kids, Aged 4-10
Scoops. This game includes creating a tower from scoops of ice-cream. What makes this game wonderful is the revolutionary way by which it uses the accelerometer. You may tilt the phone to get the scoop on top of the tower.
Brain Toot is a game that includes simple analytical problems that are given in an enjoyable manner. And it does not only include what is 3 + 4? It is more interesting than that. As the name suggests, it is a great mind-boggling exercise for the kids.
Game Apps For Older Kids
Scrabble is among the most famous word games in the world. Created by Zynga, it is a way to always keep the kids busy and also to discover new words. The game is multi-player, so 2 or more kids can start to play among one another by using the same gadget.
Bejeweled is also a classic game that has been downloaded over 150 million times, and not just as an iPhone app. It includes a board filled with gems which need to be swapped to make sure that three or more gem stones of the same color and type are in a row, vertically or horizontally. On iPhone, through its touch interface, the game becomes even more entertaining.

Unstoppable JBoss 'mafia' has big biz tech in its crosshairs
Welcome to the hits factory
Posted in Management, 10th August 2012 15:40 GMT
Watch Now : Virtual Machine Movement with Hyper-V
Open ... and Shut PayPal was the first Silicon Valley titan to get its own self-styled "mafia": a cadre of successful executives who left to create a range of great businesses like LinkedIn, Tesla and YouTube.
Google now has its own "mafia", albeit one stronger in management expertise than product prowess, and no doubt Facebook, Twitter, Square, and others will churn out their own mafias. They have yet to dress up as gangsters for Fortune, however.
But why haven't we seen the same phenomenon in the enterprise world?
To an extent we have. After all, Oracle produced Salesforce.com (Marc Benioff), Siebel Systems (Tom Siebel) and NetSuite (Evan Goldberg). And VMware has its own crop of startups, albeit less well-known than Oracle's offspring. But the speed at which PayPal and these other consumer technology companies succeeded and then created successful companies really has no parallel in the enterprise world.
At least, not outside of JBoss.
Peer into the crystal ball of enterprise technology's future and mobile, Big Data, NoSQL and cloud all loom large. Former JBoss executives are involved in significant startups in each area, generally applying the lessons learned from open source. Some of these startups, like SpringSource, where Rob Bearden was chief operating officer, have already had successful exits after attracting significant developer populations. Some, like Nucona (mobile application management), were likely much smaller in terms of valuation before being acquired, but still play a significant role in advancing enterprise technology.
But it's the companies that are still growing that will do most to cement the reputations of the JBoss big cheeses.
On the Platform-as-a-Service/cloud side, CloudBees<, founded by former JBoss general manager of Europe Sacha Labourey and joined by advisor Bob Bickel, who used to run strategy for JBoss, has an interesting play for turning Java into a service. The company is still quite early but has picked up a lot of press attention, as well as customer traction.
In the world of Big Data, one of the biggest names is Hortonworks, which spun out of Yahoo! to help popularize and commercialize Hadoop. Cloudera has the early lead with Hadoop, but Hortonworks has pulled together several key JBoss executives, including Rob Bearden (vice president of sales and marketing at JBoss and CEO of Hortonworks), Shaun Connolly (vice president of product management at JBoss and head of corporate strategy at Hortonworks), and Dan Bradford (held senior finance roles at JBoss and is vice president of finance at Hortonworks). Bearden has pushed the company to invest heavily in making Hadoop easier for enterprises to adopt, while hewing closely to a traditional open-source model devoid of proprietary bits.
The JBoss team is also helping to lead the NoSQL pack, with Ben Sabrin (former vice president of Americas at JBoss) heading North American sales at 10gen, the company behind MongoDB. Of the various NoSQL projects, MongoDB has developed the biggest developer ecosystem, and is increasingly positioned as a third database standard in the enterprise, alongside Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
The rest of the early JBoss executive team is spread throughout the industry. Tom Cooper, who ran Channels for JBoss, spent years as general manager and SVP for SAP America, and now runs worldwide field operations for Proofpoint. Brad Murdoch, JBoss vice president of services, sold his company, Nukona, to Symantec and still runs marketing there. Bill Burke, who was Chief Architect at JBoss, continues to work at Red Hat, which acquired JBoss for $350 million in 2006.
And what about the two founders of JBoss, Marc Fleury (CEO) and Scott Stark (chief technology officer)? Neither has gone on to start another company. Both spend a fair amount of time investing cash and time in other start ups, as well as open-source projects like OpenRemote, but I've seen both on the ski slopes more than at technology conferences.
Talking with Fleury today, he offered no apologies for keeping a low profile:
Repeat entrepreneurs are often motivated by different factors - they want more money, they miss the recognition of "being somebody" in the industry, they need to prove their success was more than a one-time fluke, a real above-and-beyond vision and outlier personality (à la Elon Musk), or they simply get restless at home and want to get out of the house.Since I left Red Hat, my focus has been my family, music and scientific research. I feel very comfortable there and wish time would slow down... While I did enjoy my tenure at JBoss, thanks to it, I have the luxury of doing things I enjoy and not caring about other people's recognition at all. I can indulge in studying what would be considered professional suicide by most academics (e.g., Einstein's discredited unified field theories).
Ever the contrarian, Fleury is more concerned with being with his family than establishing a "mafia". Still, given how much JBoss helped to shape not only enterprise technology, but also the nature of open source as a business strategy, I can't help but selfishly feel it's unfortunate that he and Stark aren't actively starting companies.
But they clearly recruited a group of like-minded individuals willing to take risks in the mold of the PayPal gang. No, the JBoss veterans' track records don't yet match those of PayPal, but it's interesting to see that among all the companies that could claim the role of being a "mafia" for enterprise technology, including much bigger companies like Red Hat, it's JBoss that is involved in several of the industry's most compelling startups.
Fleury, for one, isn't surprised:
We were very early in the business of open source, so the people that came to work at JBoss were the kind that are highly self motivated and attracted by open source. If you wanted to make a career out of open source back in those days, outside of Red Hat, which was already public, there were few options: MySQL and JBoss were two of the more visible.
JBoss, the "bad boys of open source." JBoss, the company happy to rip down the established hierarchy in Java application servers. JBoss, the company that wasn't afraid to take on the media, or anyone else.
Perhaps it makes sense, after all, that JBoss, more than any other, including MySQL, is set to define the next generation of enterprise technology. From NoSQL to mobile, JBoss executives are pulling down sacred cows and reshaping the enterprise. They can't help it. It's in their DNA. ®
Matt Asay is senior vice president of business development at Nodeable, offering systems management for managing and analysing cloud-based data. He was formerly SVP of biz dev at HTML5 start-up Strobe and chief operating officer of Ubuntu commercial operation Canonical. With more than a decade spent in open source, Asay served as Alfresco's general manager for the Americas and vice president of business development, and he helped put Novell on its open source track. Asay is an emeritus board member of the Open Source Initiative (OSI). His column, Open...and Shut, appears three times a week on The Register.
Watch Now : Virtual Machine Movement with Hyper-V
That sounds so negative... I think of it as a bunch of friends and coworkers who find ways to work together again. And obviously some smart people who know how to get some things done.
Also, it is much deeper than you even pointed out. The people actually spread even further. Going back in history in Bluestone with folks like Tom Leonard, Shaun Connolly, Rich Friedman, Joe McGonnell, John Mazzatelli who were key contributors at JBoss. And how Bluestone acquired Arjuna, then spun it out of HP so that JBoss could acquire it again, and for the star at Arjuna, Mark Little took Sacha's place as the CTO of JBoss today. And others at CloudBees like Michael Neale and Francois Dechery and for a while Andrian Brock. Or Mark investing in CloudBees, and Connolly and Friedman being on the Tech Advisory Board at CloudBees. Or Juha Lindfors doing work on Mark's OpenRemote project. There are even wacky interconnections like Greg Pavlik who is now VP Engineering at HortonWorks and was a Bluestone star developer. Also, how about the VC's like David Skok and Peter Fenton. And how that spread out to people like Kevin Efrusy. Also other company connections like Hyperic, who's technology was the foundation of the Jboss Operations Network. Hyperic was later acquired by Spring because it had become the foundation for their management platform and was driving increasing revenue. And eXo, which Jboss selected to be the foundation of the new JBoss Portal, where Sacha and I are both advisors.
One might almost call it a world wide web ;-)
Re: Mafia?
And the relationship with HP goes even further: my first printer was a HP!
Excellent Article
This article makes an important point about the ecosystem and how it works. The best book about it that I have read is Startup of You by Reid Hoffman. It is as important for its examples as its recommendations.
