Boas noticias chegam do blog DB2 Express-C onde já é possível a totalidade do workshop DB2 on Campus sem precisar de sair de casa. Excelentes noticias para todos nos, especialmente porque vai permitir aos embaixadores prepararem com maior facilidade o evento para o próximo semestre.

We will post a xForms/METS/DB2 screen-cast in this website soon. To get you prepared for this I advice you to download this firefox plugin and read the following articles:

• Introduction to XForms [part2, part3]
• Use XForms to create your own Sudoku game [part2]
• XForms and Ruby on Rails at the Doctor’s Office (DB2)

In case you are looking for good examples you can visit this wikibook or better yet… Open your console, and create a directory in your home folder. Enter the folder and write this:

svn checkout http://xforms-examples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ xforms-examples-read-only

These are some great samples from Google Code. Believe me I’m saving you time with this advice. You won’t need to spend hours on badly executed examples from companies that are supposed to be building xForms implementations. Outch!?

It’s a great pleasure to announce that we have been elected as “Featured University DB2 User Group” by IBM. This is a great incentive to our work.

We just sorry for the small errors in the article like that fact that Marcelo is missing and I’m with the president title. There’s no president in this group just fellow students!

Anyway we hope this can bring more students to us and therefor improve even further the quality of this DB2 University User Group.
