Seedlings poking through.

Comments[0] by Dave in General
Frank Boosman: But there is another Silicon Valley rising from the ashes -- a new generation of companies starting and growing up, born out of bad times. These companies are the seedlings poking through the ashes of a devastating fire. When the fire is a memory, they'll be the tallest trees in the new forest.

Hibernate tests in place and remember me.

Comments[0] by Dave in Roller

I developed Roller without unit testing, but I'm not going proceed with the Hibernate implementation without having tests in place. Last night, I checked in tests for the Roller NewsfeedManager, the simplest of the Roller backend managers. The next step is to write or generate Hibernate mappings for the NewsfeedData object and code up a new NewsfeedManagerImpl.

While I was working on that, Matt implemented remember me, added email notification for comments, and upgraded his site to the latest Roller from CVS (not even I am ready to do that ;-)
