Ok, the web project is uploaded and you can download it here . All information and eventual comments and extra files will be made available on the sigmalab forums.
A human info on Zoran Naskovski and Dalibor Lazarevski, it seems that they went to work in Iraq in order to earn money for the wedding between Dalibor and Biljana which seems to be Zoran's daughter (or granddaughter).
Two Macedonian citizens got beheaded in Iraq. They seem to have been in the hands of the kidnappers since August 21 (a third Macedonian was in the kidnapped group at the time, what happened to him?), about the time the French journalists were abducted. Only minor reports here in the Italian news giving the notion that one brit or is worth more then two macedonians. It's all about what makes audience these days. Sincere condolences to the families. People in Macedonia are poor, they don't have money to pay ransom demands (perhaps the real interest of these groups) and are scattered all over the world in the pursuit for better life and a chance to make a better living. When Macedonia was part of Yugoslavia and even today many firms would go to the Middle East asked by the governments of those countries to help and build something. If they came there they came to build and not to destroy. Macedonia has a history of great hardship. Invasions, poverty, repressions... Been there,
Nothing's going on... I didn't close an eye last night :( I will probably make a release of jspArt in a day or two.

Lomboz at this moment has inferior JSP editor (or at least it works poorly for me) than NetBeans but I have the feeling this will change in the future. As far as the Web Standards Tools , I'd really like to see some CSS editor that has the feel of TopStyle , for me it's THE best CSS editor and the preview for both IE and Mozilla in unsurpassed (calling IE and Mozilla from Java? Now that's a c
Well, it's October. I'll be 24 in a couple of weeks so it's time of noting how things change. I see many new faces on the campus, some old faces that are continuing studies on higher levels (doing really neat stuff) and some old faces still on the benches (we love them most, no?). So I'm telling myself I'll have to study more this year so we can finish in the foreseeable future. On the other hand, if I finish, will I be able to sustain higher tuition fees for the Specialization or will I be able to find a decent job and without bureaucratic difficulties, ecc. ecc. Bibi managed to get into some course for economists sponsored by the Region, I think, so that's a good thing that she's doing. Really excited about that and I hope it'll bring her some good experience and contacts. I am dedicating this semester to (almost) clean up 3rd year and to math lessons. If I find the time I'll do some cleaning-up on the project I did for Tecnologie Web (which did
