Simon Muzio has been driving an awesome community project called "Live From Redmond" where he convinces some of the best and brightest from the Product teams to host live webcasts on technology areas that they are experts in. He recently announced the next 19 of these webcasts (I'm a bit behind on this as you will see) and they cover Client developemnt, Web Development, .NET CF, and Commerce Server content -- they are all must sees.

I recently had a fun time baking cookies with my three year old son.. He had a great time scooping out the floor, dumping in the sugar and plopping in the butter... but when they came out of oven and I took my first bite, I know something we dreadfully wrong, they tasted terrible! Just then my wife came in with a helpful observation: “Well, did you measure?” This time my lack of measuring only cost me a plate of cookies... If you are building a business critical app with a perf problem, the stakes are a bit higher. While we are certainly striving for a Pit of Success kind of platform, you can expect to get world class performance for your applications without measuring. Blindly optimizing bits of code across the product is more likely to introduce...(read more)

Just wanted to introducemyself. I'm John Dixon, one of the SDET Leads on VWD. I wanted to share some of the recent work the Venus QA team has done to make our life easier. I'll start with a little bit of history. I hope you find it interesting! Old School:In our last release (VS2005)QA would get a new build and based on build verification tests (BVTs) decide to takereject the build and perform additional qualification (such as run nightly tests - a manual process of creating a 'run' in our lab and wait for results).Upon the results we couldwrite new tests against the new buildfeatures made available from the dev work performed since the last build we took. This generally worked but caused a lot of downtime as we would typically need to reimage...(read more)

I've beeen toying with that idea for a while andI thought I would try to get some feedback on it. Mixins are a way to dynamically add members to an existing object. I've built a small function, Type.Mixin, that does that by copying members from the mixin object's prototype to the object that you want to extend. The mixin object is a type (that is, a function) that can't be instantiated (you can ensure that by throwing from the constructor). The members that will extend the target object are defined on the prototype of the mixin.Here's an example of a mixin object that is specialized at extending strings:Bleroy.Mixin.StringHtmlExtensions = function() { throw new Error("Can't instantiate a mixin.");}Bleroy.Mixin.StringHtmlExtensions.prototype...(read more)

Have you set up a Structured Application (structapps.fm) and chosen the conditional text setting (there are 4 choices in the app)? Is all of your content

The Atlas team recently shipped a new Atlas July CTP that contains a number of bug-fixes. You can download it off of the http://atlas.asp.net/ web-site (like all Atlas CTPs it supports a go-live license).The Atlas Control Toolkit team – which is building up a great library of useful Atlas-enabled controls on top of the core Atlas runtime – also recently posted a binary refresh of the Atlas Control Toolkit as well. You can read all about it in Shawn’s announcement post of it, and download it for free here. What is really cool about this new Atlas Control Toolkit update is that it includes Atlas controls contributed by non-Microsoft developers. As I mentioned in an earlier post, we are building the Atlas Control Toolkit collaboratively...(read more)

Is the content you're converting structured to begin with? Wanda -- Let us overthrow the totems, break the taboos. Or better, let us consider them cancelled.

Denise, Did you structure the FrameMaker document before saving as XML? If you just open a FM 6.0 doc in FM 7.2, that doesn't automatically add the structure.

VirusScan, Personal Firewall Plus, SpamKiller and other McAfee products are reportedly vulnerable to an unspecified remote code execution flaw.

Hi, My apologies if this isn't the correct forum for these questions, but I am on my own as I learn how to best use DocBook, XML, and such. I'm working with 2

[ARTICLE] 10 DITA Lessons Learned From Tech Writers in the Trenches If you're considering a move to the Darwin Information Typing Architcture (DITA), make time

Hello-- Our company is transitioning to XML from FrameMaker. Currently we have approximately 500 pages of source material in FrameMaker 6.0. The files are

One of the most common questions I stumble upon is "Which Lotus Notes files do I need to move when I get a new machine?" ? ?IBM has a technote on this, perfectly titled "What Are the Default Files You Need to Copy when Moving a Notes Client Installation to a New System?". ? ?I'll let you read the technote for the details, but the short answer is:

• names.nsf
• bookmark.nsf
• desktop6.ndk (Desktop5.nsf in Notes 5.x, Desktop.nsf in Notes 4.x)
• your ID file
• user.dic
• notes.ini (this is good since some settings are contained in it, but it can also cause some problems on your new machine, for example if you install notes in a different directory)
• headlines.nsf if you use subscriptions
• Any personal databases you have created, such as journal.nsf
• Any databases your have replicated locally, such as your mail file
• Your mail file archive if you have one

One technique I've used in the past is to first backup the files above, then uninstall Lotus Notes. ? Any files that were not part of the original install (meaning files you've created) will remain, making it pretty easy for you to see what to move to the new machine.

SearchDomino.com member Jerry Fogle offers a quick LotusScript technique that will populate a number field on a Lotus Notes UI document with a processed list. All you have to do is create a number field with "allow multiple values" and "computed when composed" selected, and then create a button using the LotusScript code provided in this tip.
