Evo - alife framework

Evo looks rather interesting. Not a simple alife toy, (not that there is anything wrong with being a simple alife toy), but a rather sophisticated framework for building complex alife simulations.

iSeries Tools and the Power of X

iSeries Tools and the Power of X: Why FTP?

I'd not heard of this - using VNC to run iSeries based X Windows sessions. Wild! You can now use EMACS to edit iSeries files.

If Eclipse for the iSeries wasn't around, I'd be looking at using this.

More cool online games

Acno's Energizer and friends.

I'm not sure that War on Terrorisn 2 is in good taste. But Paintball, Flashman and Alien Attack are nice.

Python DB-API 2.0 driver for Microsoft ADO

The OPAL group have a preliminary version of an ADO module for Python.

The Database Row Module looks interesting, too...

JTOpen

JTOpen is the open source version of IBM's Java toolbox for iSeries. JTOpen--The Right Tools for the Job is a nice introduction.

I am using JTOpen in my current project - mainly the JDBC driver.
