- La presentación de Miguel Ángel Abián, "El proyecto ECOS: papel de Java en la interoperabilidad del comercio electrónico entre empresas del sector del mueble", podría dividirse en dos partes clares pero interconectadas. Por una lado, una muy buen justificación del uso de Java en este tipo de proyectos -y también su ejecución en sí- y por otro una demostración del sistema desarrollado. La segunda parte puede tener más interés, evidentemente, para personas relacionadas con el mundo del mueble y la madera -del que curiosamente yo estoy cerca- pero la primera interesaría a cualquier programador Java que buscase defender esa plataforma en su empresa o ámbito de actuación. Explicar un poco el porqué de Java es de agradecer, porque en muchas ocasiones, y más en actos como un congreso, su uso se da por supuesto sin mayor justificación. |

- DirecTV has an interesting concept of the justice system. If you buy a product that might be used for illegal purposes, then you are automatically guilty, whether you use it all, or even if you have a legitimate use of the product. If you have an legitimate use, you must prove your innocence to DirecTV, at your own expense. Electronics hobbyists in particular are in the target zone their broad shotgun approach to justice. This type of corporate bullying is enough reason to boycott DirecTV. |
