My buddy, Chuck Imperato, has created a neat little game called Golf Solitaire. It shows how simple SWT can use concepts like double-buffering and drag and drop.
You can install the plugins from the site I posted here on balfes.net.
Once installed into your Eclipse, you can do a simple “Show View” and select the view:
Here is a screen shot of the application in action:

Looks like my presentation was not on Lotusphere online so I will post it here. I am impressed with the number of people who asked for it, thanks!
Developing with the IBM Lotus Expeditor Toolkit for IBM Lotus Expeditor and IBM Lotus Notes 8

is a pretty interesting
I might have to look into this a little deeper. Has anyone had
any experience with this framework?
Ok, I may be a Notes bigot but I also know that Notes has close to (if not more than) 45% of the market share for email in the enterprise. It also has some of the best collaboration applications in the world. Why then did I read an entire article – a magazine even – about Collaboration and not one mention of Notes or Domino?
The January 15th InfoWorld has a “Collaboration Leaderboard” on page 42 and there is not one mention of not only Notes or Domino but no mention of any third party application for Notes and Domino. It is ALL Exchange based!
Jamie Bernstein however, promotes an email system called Gordano – yeah I may have seen some code from that on DailyWTF.
The more I read InfoWorld the more I think Bill Gates has them in his back pocket, no wonder I only read it on the crapper.
Thoughts?

Developing with the IBM Lotus Expeditor Toolkit for IBM Lotus Expeditor and IBM Lotus Notes 8

Expeditor Domino Lotusphere
Myself and Chuck Imperato have created two tools we have used
internally to assist in Composite Application Development and
debugging. Since these kinds of applications are defined then
deployed to a server and what Expeditor uses to project the application
is XML it may be difficult to debug what is wrong and where.
I wanted to get further feedback on the usefulness and availability of
these tools to the public. There is current discussion as to
whether or not it will show up in a future release of the Expeditor
Toolkit. At a minimum I can see us putting something of Developer
Works around Expeditor 6.1.1 launch time.
Please respond here or email me with your suggestion/desires.
Thanks Bob.
Property Broker Monitor
This is a real time log of events that occur over the broker. You
can evaluate things like a property change event, wires
enabling/disabling, pre and post action calls and general object
evaluation. Here is a screen shot of the Notes 8 Calendar that
many of you saw at Lotusphere where I have the PB Monitor tool opened
and calendar events are flying by. I selected a POST_ACTION
called event and I selected the Wire object in this screen shot.
Topology Peek
This is a Composite Application evaluation tool. Since the
definition of a Composite Application is a rather large and complicated
XML file it can be cumbersome to figure out what is in an application -
or at least what Expeditor thinks it has. Of course the original
tools that created the application can also be used many times when an
application comes from multiple sources what is actually on the client
may be different. This tool helps in locating and visualizing
those differences.

We got a lot of positive feedback at Lotusphere for Composite Applications and Lotus
Expeditor in general. Now that you have had a time to see the material and possibly visit presentations off-line I welcome any suggestions or input now. Respond here or email me at balfe [at] us.ibm.com.

IBM has developed software designed to let people keep personal information secret when doing business online and donated it to the Higgins open-source project.
I went ahead and created this little program in about an hour to move my files from the Blosxom Blogging system to the Simple PHP system I am using now. The code is pretty straight forward, not commented and very crude but it does the job!
If you want to use it go ahead, no disclaimer but use at your own risk.
You will most likely want to modify the getCategories() method and put your own categories in it.
