An open-source java accounting application that embeds OpenOffice and utilizes MySQL or OpenOffice's HSQLDB to create and administrate invoices, credit memos, delivery notes, bills etc.   This release is an overhaul which removes some old things which should have gone long ago (e.g. a way to book called "continuations") and introduces some features which should have been introduced long ago. It's now based on SWT 3.3 (Eclipse Europa) and NOA 2.0.9.  Code cleanups(bugs 1756730,1762621,1781961,1781967,1790963), now using SWT 3.3 (1762622) and NOA 2.0.9 (1762623), datepicker in balancewindow(1757811), dropped recordswindow and 'continuations'(1735535), credit memos are now automatically booked(1781964)  By default, this will install a new database file due to changes in the internal structure.

Okay, non-interview stuff first. I've recently picked up several 'shortcuts' from O'Reilly and Addison-Weseley.  I love this format.  For about 10 bucks, you can get a PDF only copy of a 50-100 page "book".  The shortcuts (so far at least) have been very focused, which allows them to cover a reasonable topic in sufficient depth without creating a monstrous 600+ page tome.  The shortcuts I've looked at so far have been timely, useful, and a great value.  October marks the beginning of Apress' push into Ruby and Ruby on Rails.    Apress also has Practical OCaml coming out soon to help soothe your inner functional programmer.  Now, on to interview news!
