Extending the Blogosphere

This is a proposal for the extension of the Blogosphere, the network of Weblogs.
Individual Blogs are connected by their users implicitly: a community emerges, because users regularly read and comment on others entries. By making this connexions explicit, a web of trust is created which functions like a reputation mechanism.

The resulting system leverages the advantages of social networks for the distribution of news. It can be implemented as a decentralised system, with a simple extension to the Blogosphere.

The system is explained in a paper and in the presentation at the Mobile Entertainment conference in Manchester.

The RSS MPN-Interest module is the first part of this extension.

JChemPaint project is an editor for 2D molecular structures.
JChemPaint is intended to be complementary to Jmol, a visualisation and analysis tool for 3D molecular structures, started by Dan Gezelter at Notre Dame University, initator of the Open Science Project. and, like JChemPaint, developed by an international team of opensource programmers.
Main features:
- JChemPaint is open source OS. It is Free Software. We believe that scientific software, especially when its development was publically funded, should be free. As the GNU people put it: "``Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of free speech, not free beer. ". Everyone can participate in the development of the program. Everyone can download and change the source code, provided that he makes the changes publicly available again, according to the GNU Lesser General Public License, LGPL. This ensures that the community can take advantage of any bugfix/enhancement made to the system.
- It also ensures that a scientist, who needs a standard piece of software like a structure editor as a helper application in her new program, does not have to reinvent the wheel over and over again because all the structure editors that have been written before are now proprietory software. If there is a free structure editor, she can focus on the real science.
- JChemPaint is not complete :-). Honestly, it can still use a lot of development (see below).
- Since JChemPaint is written in Java it runs on any computing platform and operating system for which a Java Virtual Machine (of version >= 2) has been implemented (like Linux, Windows 95/98/NT, Solaris, AIX and others).
- JChemPaint is avaiblable free of charge.
- JChemPaint is translated into several languages: Dutch, French, German and Polish.
Enhancements:
- This release is a build from the latest of CDK SVN.
- It adds InChI support and a SMILES entering field with memory.
- Many bugs were fixed, and the program should be faster too.

Pattern-lab is a pattern recognition program. Pattern-lab project is optimized for OCR, but not constrained to it. The method used is mainly pattern matching. Separation of merged patterns is one of the main goals. It is currently under development.
Enhancements:
- This release adds the Standardizing Transformation (ST) embedding IMage Euclidean Distance (IMED) in the preprocessing phase.
- Positive and negative effects of the new feature are explained in the manual.

Open Blue Lab is an enterprise resource planning system.
Whatever your goal is, the objective of this tool is to provide you the ready-to use stuff to create, update, search and view data you need for your application.
Moreover, this stuff is provided with the latest UI goodies like AJAX support that will ensure you the best feeling you never had in browsing.
Like OpenBlueLab.org project is portal aware, that means you have aggregation and personalization too.
That way, you can focus on your added value : the business logic and requirements your customer needs.
Enhancements:
- Attributes are now private instead of public.
- All entities (classes, attributes, and methods) are documented, allowing HTML documentation generation.
- iReport reporting has been integrated for journal, ledger, balance, and statistics.
