As previously mentioned, Nick Halstead will be revealing the top three places in the results from the programming competition he was hosting. Today starts the top three list with third place - an entry from Karol Grecki:   I was really impressed with Karol's entry and if it was not for the fact that it did not 'run out of the box' it would have been a close cut thing to be the winner. The fact is that because it was a pain to get running the two other judges only gave it 1 point each.   The post includes Karol's solution - a method that involved using the Zend Framework as a backdrop. You can see the application in action on Karol's website or just download the code and play along at home.

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!

Last Friday, Polish researcher Michal Zalewski reported discovering an interesting little JavaScript trick that keeps a user stuck on a Web page even though he's trying to navigate somewhere else. His discovery involves the simple use of a JavaScript event to make it appear as though a browser is displaying any particular URL, when it's not.

Fast, intelligent, automatic spam detector using Paul Graham style Bayesian analysis of word counts in spam and non-spam emails. Filtering adapts to personal tastes automatically. No manual rule creation required. This release adds the final missing pieces to the new parser code.  MBX files and Content-Length headers are now supported.  Database cleanup when signals are caught has also been improved.  I would like to move 1.1 into the stable branch fairly soon so if folks would test out this release and report any problems it would be a big help!   The latest release can be found here: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61201&package_id=73566

Wav2MP3 Wizard is the lightest, easiest and one of the fastest Audio Converting programs. Select your files, convert them to MP3/OGG and decode them back, using one of the 10 easy pre-setup profiles, or make your own! High quality audio in just seconds! The Wav2MP3 Wizard team after a long period of work is proud to bring you the brand new v3.1, with fully automated batch encoding, proving to be one of the fastest and easiest audio conversion software available!   Take a more detailed look at what changed since version 3.0:  * REMOVAL: Removed the ID3Tag options from the Main dialog as they were pretty useless and confusing; default values for ID3Tags can still be set by the File Dialog (see Help File for more) * IMPROVEMENT: Fully automatic batch (multiple files) encoding, not requiring you to click OK between files * ADDITION: Added the File dialog; by double-clicking on any file on the list you can view all its ID3Tag properties as well as select its destination after encoding * ADDITION: Ability to change all ID3Tag information in all files in the list with a few clicks, or clear them * ADDITION: All ID3Tag information is copied from the Main form to the File form (appears when double-clicking on a file in the list) * IMPROVEMENT: Separated Options dialog in tabs (suggested by Paul Jay Schrenker) * CHANGE: There is no "Enable/Disable Multiple Files", as the list always appears now; the program can detect whether the list contains one or more files but acts the same * CHANGE: There is no "Show Save As... dialog before encoding" option, as the user can select where he wants each file to be saved by double-clicking on it on the list; change made for the capability of automatic batch encoding * REMOVAL: Removed color-fading * OCX COMPONENT CHANGE: Now using msdxm.ocx instead of amovie.ocx, due to limited capabilities and bugs of the latter * CORRECTION: List is not cleared after encoding, but is still cleared if user clicks on Cancel button * BUG CORRECTIONS: Corrected bugs on file selection, Main dialog being disabled to user, ID3Tags being disabled after adding more than one file to list and many other minor bugs * IMPROVEMENT: Cleaned up the code, removed all unused entries for smaller size and faster use * ADDITION: Added German language * OTHER: Some other fixes and additions I can't remember after all this time...   NOTES:  * The released versions do not mention in their helpfile that the German language has been added, although the installer does. This has been considered a minor mistake, and will be fixed in the next release.  * Notice that we will not be releasing the Light Version of the source code anymore. The packages that will be available are: Installer, Zipped and Source.  The latest installer can be found here: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=90441&package_id=95185  Enjoy another version of Wav2MP3 Wizard!  *The Leftos Open-Source Development Group*
