Some useful links for the day and status updates-

Lot of cool stuffs were written by Nepali Open source developers and enthusiasts - http://github.com/theinitmag/201005/blob/master/releases/theinitmag06.pdf (Lucid Lynx is covered by Jitendra Harlalka). A wonderful read it's been.

I have been playing around with Rabbitmq, Celery and Django of lately - I'll try to cover them in coming weeks if time permits. One can refer to these links for more info into the whole AMQP microcosm.

Having up'ed http://slader.com from scratch with Peter Bernheim, it feels much better now. It was a good 4 week marathon working with the team. If you're a Maths geek, do sign up with slader.com :-)

Another interesting project is the APE project (Ajax Push Engine). It uses client and server side script written in JavaScript to accomplish server push for real-time data. More available @ http://www.ape-project.org/ 

Enjoy! :B
