Brave Notepad++ … thanks!

It’s more than year of silence in this blog, but, this small (but meaningful) news worth breaking the silence:
Notepad++ leaves SourceForge
why?
Since January 2010, SourceForge has complied with US law to deny site access from 5 countries (Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria).
This action is totally absurd - not mentioning to that Notepad++ project is far from a part of US property (like all the hosted FOSS projects in SF), the fact that a FOSS hoster rejects the access from some population is not only a discrimination action but also a violation of fundamental FOSS principle.
We refuse to apply US government's vision, so that's our first move: the new site under domain name NOTEPAD-PLUS-PLUS.ORG is hosted by tuxfamily.org in a neutral territory (France).

Delphi developer against Flu
Posted January 21st, 2009 by Issam in
At last I can smell 
it's wonderful feeling after a week of struggling with Flu, it was a rough "fight" but the Delphi Developer wins at last, and the cost:
- a lot of medicines -actually there are many empty medicine boxes on my table now- "TUSSI GRIP" is one of them and it did a great job, I recommend it.
- a lot of lemons, it really helps and I recommend it either.
- a lot of handkerchiefs ... yeah believe me it's a lot
- one week delay on business; well that's not good. I have to work harder in the next days.
