peer to peer trial software / shareware for linux

Kerika is a new approach to collaboration that provides a visual context for sharing documents, with automatic filing of versions and comments; process templates; and support for very large files.

The Kerika project connects Windows, Mac and Linux users across organizations, networks and locations, without requiring anyone to upgrade their computers, incur up-front costs, hire consultants, or make long-term commitments.

You can sketch out your projects using Idea Pages, add content, develop ideas into subprojects, and then share everything with anyone you like: just list the email addresses of the people you want to share with and Kerika takes care of the rest. The software automatically figures out whether your buddies are also using Kerika; if they are not, they will get their project updates sent to them by email.

Idea Pages work like a "graphical Wiki": any team member can delete an item from a shared project, and any other team member can restore the item later.

The document management features are easy, yet powerful: you can share any type of file (documents, Web links, pictures, software, etc.) with other users, and whenever team members make changes these are automatically sent and filed on everyone’s computer.

It is easy to attach notes to documents and projects, to share content and processes across multiple projects, to chat sessions with other users and get real-time notifications of updates.

Kerika works on a peer-to-peer model: every user has a complete set of project files and there is no need to rely upon a central server as long as users are online. And for complete privacy, Kerika lets you set up a "private server", on any machine you have, to hold messages for your team members when they are offline so nobody else gets to see what you are sharing with others!

The software is offered as a subscription service: you get a 30-day free trial, after which you can become a monthly subscriber for just a few dollars a month.

Java Serialization to XML (JSX in short) translates between Java and XML, making it possible to search, test, profile, and audit your object data with ordinary XML and text processing tools.
Your data can be migrated to new application versions, to C++, and to other applications by transforming the XML. Unlike other Java XML serializers, JSX is accurate for all objects.
Main features:
Works for all objects
- JSX avoids the problem of NotSerializableExceptions, now and in the future, because it serializes all objects, Serializable or not. ( read more... )
Nested and recursive objects
- JSX can create an instant file format for your data, which you can then configure manually with a plain text editor. Manually coding such a format is a lot of tedious work - and you also have to write the parsing code. This coding is especially unpleasant when your objects have a nested or recursive structure. Java Object serialization (JOS) also works well for this task, except that you cannot see or edit the resulting binary. JOS also requires objects to implement the Serializable interface, and so wont work with all objects. JSX does not have this restriction, and works for objects whether they implement Serializable or not. Here is a case study. ( read more... )
Human readable
- XML is easy to check and verify; and automatic serialization eliminates human error in the mapping code. JSX is an instant solution, and removes the error-prone tedium of writing and mantaining externalization code by hand.
Version restrictions:
- 30 days trial
You should you buy JSX if:
- JSX costs less than reinventing and maintaining your own solution in-house
- JSX meets your needs better than alternative products
- you need a proven solution that definitely works
- you need it today
- you need the intellectual property rights assurance of an IP indemnity
If JSX is not what you need, then you should stop using it after 30 days and delete it from your system.
