The vb2Py project is developing a suite of conversion tools to aid in translating existing Visual Basic projects into Python.
The conversion includes,
· VB code modules translating to Python code modules
· VB classes to Python classes
· VB Forms to PythonCard forms
· VB Projects to PythonCard projects
Sage lets you build rich, highly functional, cross platform web-enabled desktop applications and applets by simply marking up the UI and attaching JavaScript (or Ruby, Python, etc.) event handlers. You simply point sage to a URL and it downloads the markup and accompanying scripts and renders the application or applet in real-time (the same way a browser renders documents). All that is required to run Sage is a Java Virtual Machine (v1.5 or later, v1.6 preferred).
CSpace provides a platform for secure, decentralized, user-to-user communication over the internet. The driving idea behind the CSpace platform is to provide a connect(user,service) primitive, similar to the sockets API connect(ip,port). Applications built on top of CSpace can simply invoke connect(user,service) to establish a connection. The CSpace platform will take care of locating the user and creating a secure, nat/firewall friendly connection.
Where possible, creating Web applications — including Ajax-based applications — in a RESTful way avoids a large class of bugs. However, a pitfall of REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is sending duplicate data across similar XMLHttpRequests. This tip shows how the moderate use of session cookies can maintain just enough server-side state to significantly reduce client-server traffic, while still allowing fallback to cookie-free operation.
Solipsis is a pure peer-to-peer system for a massively shared virtual world. There are no central servers at all: it only relies on end-users' machines. Solipsis is a public virtual territory. The world is initially empty and only users will fill it by
