Recomended Weekly Link’s (from 19.01.2007)

Interesting to me articals for last week:

• Using maven-proxy to setup an internal maven repository
  

  When you’re using maven at your company, you almost always want to setup local maven repository…

• Why I should learn Lisp
  

  Still I do not think Lisp is going to make mainstream, yet I need to learn Lisp to be a better fit in today’s world of changing programming paradigms.

• Wicket – (another) Java Web Framework: My First Impressions
  

  If you are looking for something lightweight that will take a few minutes to learn, Wicket is not for you. If you are looking for a component-oriented approach, Wicket is a contender.

• Free CSS Layouts And Templates
  

  As a web-developer you don’t have to re-invent the wheel all the time. If it just has to work, and has to be valid, and has to have a nice, visually appealing design hierarchy, you just can use css-techniques developed in the web-dev-community over the last few years. If you take a look around, you’ll find many templates, which include basic (X)HTML/CSS-markup.

• The Rise of OSGi
  

  If you’re looking to create a plugin-based application, or to add a plugin system to your existing application, then you should look into OSGi.
