Is Maven 2 about to be EOL'ed?

By Anonymous
In the Maven mailing list,Stephen Connolly has posted a question, should we "declare Maven 2.x as end of life".

He states:
We have not made a release of Maven 2.x since 2.2.1 which was August 2009. During that period no release manager has stepped up to cut a release. I would argue that we should just therefore just declare Maven 2.x as end of life.

At the time of writing, most votes are agreeing with Stephen implying that the end of Maven 2 may be coming soon.

Have you upgraded to Maven 3, or are you still using Maven 2?  Is it a good thing to eol Maven 2?  Add your thoughts in the comments below.

Don't forget to read Stephen's full thread for all the details.

A Simple Makefile for a GTK/GTKMM Project

By Anonymous
When compiling small applications, its fairly easy just to compile using g++ from the command line. If you’re compiling anything more complex than a single file, its probably easier to use a Makefile. This example Makefile demonstrates how to compile an application that uses the GTKMM library. NAME=my-app CFLAGS=-g -Wall -o $(NAME) GTKFLAGS=`pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkmm-3.0` SRCS=main.cc myapp.cc CC=g++ # Do all all: main # Compile main: $(SRCS) $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(SRCS) $(GTKFLAGS) # Clean clean: rm -f $(NAME) rm -f *.h~ rm -f *.cc~ rm -f Makefile~ rm -f *.glade~

Changing Default Search Provider in Firefox on Linux Mint

By
On Linux Mint, the default version of Firefox is installed and configured to allow the following search engines to be queried directly from the address bar: Yahoo! Startpage DuckDuckGo Wikipedia Mint defines these as the default available set of search engines based upon 3 criteria (funding to Linux Mint, privacy support and whether the search engine is non-commercial). Other search engines such as Google, Bing or Twitter, etc. can easily be added into the default version of Firefox however. To add a different search provider, browse to Search Engines At the bottom of the page, click on the icon of the requested search engine, then click on the ... button in the URL bar and select the Add Search Engine option.
