To DVI or not to DVI Part 2

Published by pj under bugs,hardware

After my dramatic attempt to get my hands on an IIyama E2200WS last weekend, the friendly people at graficall sold me a *real* E2200WS.

I had to negotiate a new sleeping place with the cats, though:

(apologies on the low motorola SLVR resolution)

Transparent SQL proxy

Published by pj under design,opensource

I’m about to start a new project: a transparent SQL proxy. Connect your PHP-app to this “fake” mysql server, which sits in between your app and postgresql server translating all mysql-specific queries to normal sql’92 compliant format.

Requirements:

  • support backend connections to postgres
  • emulate mysql behaviour to frontend
  • in Release1, queries for ‘X-cart’ shopping cart software should be supported

I have a clear picture of this. Does anyone have more ideas to contribute? I’ll start designing in the next few days.
