    Pretty but useless started by grant
    Some of the things I stumble across are quite impressive/pretty but to me have no real use. This is an example of such a beast… :

    Goto http://wordle.net/create to generate your own wordle or take a look at http://wordle.net/gallery?username=grantc for some ot

    Un café con leche con hielo por favor… started by grant
    In a belated follow-up/me too post to notnull’s Donnez-moi un café Ingres. I too would like to congratulate Samrat Dhillon and Andrew Ross on their recent win at LinuxWorld for Best Application Development Tool. ¡¡¡¡Way to go guys!!!!
    Logging Ingres JDBC connections under tomcat started by grant
    The Ingres JDBC driver, iijdbc.jar, has the capability to log the queries that pass through it. This is extremely useful for obtaining query timings as well as working out what goes between an application and the DBMS server. For example, below is a snippet of a trace obtained from Jira:

    Navigating the Ingres source with … ctags started by grant
    I recently discovered ctags, a program that generates a tag/index file for C, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby. For those new to the Ingres source ctags is an invaluable tool for navigating the Ingres source tree. Editors like vi and Emacs can use the generated tag file to allow the coder to go
    Ruby for Ingres started by grant

    cc -o CVlisten CVlisten.c

    Perl Ingres Utilities started by grant
    Ingres has had Perl support for sometime through ingperl (Perl 4 derivative) and more recently with DBD::Ingres. However it was a nice surprise to see someone from Brazil writing some Perl utilities drive the command line utilities iinamu and iimonitor.
    Riding the wave started by grant
    In addition Ingres’ inclusion in the latest IDC/Gartner report for database figures, Forrester has just published a favourable report on Ingres against other open source databases. Quoting from the exceprt:

    Ruby for Ingres via ODBC started by grant
    Several months ago I decided to take a look at Ruby, in particular Rails, to see what all the fuss was about. Since Rails requires a database (of course) I thought I would see what could be done in getting it set up with Ingres. Since there is already someone working with a client of [...%
