The change has been requested on bugs system Request #2897, also for addition now it included unit tests which written as PHPUnit based tests. Even the codes were written with PEAR Coding Standard, but It was still hard to review after 2 years away.

Thanks for using Math_Numerical_RootFinding and hope you find it useful to help your work.

Suprise there is PEAR::Flickr_API listed, since I knew the Naming Conventions Standard of PEAR, it’s should Services_Flickr, I knew that PEAR::Flickr_API is not official PEAR package. Then I hope I can find it on proposal list, poor me, no such proposal for it.

It’s better if Cal Henderson propose his Flickr. I’m glad to have it. Or anyone interested on PEAR::Services_Flickr?

“Hey what’s up man?”

Did you know that the SQLite file format has changed again? At January 10th, 2006 exactly the file format changed to version 3.3, here is the log for it:

Version 3.3.0 uses a new encoding for binary values that uses less disk space. Version 3.3.0 can read and write database files created by prior versions of SQLite. But prior versions of SQLite will not be able to read or write databases created by Version 3.3.0

for complete file format logs, you can read here. Additional log can found on the complete SQLite changes log.

“We’re soo late my friend, it’s more than one month ago”

Current PDO uses SQLite library version 3.2.8undefined, not weird if it unable to works with your SQLite databases those created by SQLite 3.3.x console.

This time and only this time, just use your SQLite 3.2.x console in order to makes your PDO SQLite working properly and your databases safe while waiting for new PDO released. Don’t made any mistakes with open your SQLite created by PDO using SQLite 3.3.x console, if you won’t frustated and don’t get PDO wrong if it happened to you.

“You has been noticed man!“

Several days ago I read private email from Keith Palmer Jr. (the Math_Polynomial lead) about the capitol bug in method calls right on Math_Numerical_RootFinding::factory(). Now all methods calls are using their insensitive-case alias names, some driver file names and class names were renamed into more prety names. Fixed some coding standard mistakes, also added Matthew Fonda as package co-lead.

This version is compatible with the previous version, don’t worry my friend just take a rest and close your code editor, there’s nothing to change. So what are you waiting for? Get it now!

I spent several times to dig many projects, then searching for the numbers of users for each projects. Then I found Mojavi, Phrame, CAKE and WACT are most popular projects. How about concept? Which is a best one? AFAIK Mojavi has own impresive concept and implementation, but it’s too complicated for newbie but easy to learn. Phrame is a Struts port for PHP, simple and powerfull. CAKE and WACT, sorry it’s not easy to learn it.

I still wondering which one MVC framework projects I should be uses? Or I must be waiting for Zend Framework.

So I’m looking for another lead to bring this package to be more usefull, if you interested on this package, please don’t hesitate to contact me anytime.

I’m waiting for you!
