Mylar

Mylar 1.0 has been released!

Mylar is a task-focused UI for Eclipse that reduces information overload and makes multi-tasking easy. This will be very good fo CIShell/NWB when we get bug tracking going and start dealing with bug reports.

This is cool. Terracotta is open source clustering for Java. Basically allows you to cluster a Java application (somewhat) transparently.

It'd be cool to cluster CIShell algorithms (hopefully) transparently with this :) Can't wait to try it out next semester for our webservice push for CIShell...
