The Tortoise And The Hare

,----[ Quote ]
| THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE
| 
| The philosophy of Open Source reminds me of a 
| story from 'Panchtantra': the tortoise and 
| the hare.
| 
| The tortoise and the hare were friends. One 
| day, they decided to race against each other. 
| The hare obviously took the lead; he thought 
| of relaxing and went off to sleep. The 
| tortoise, walking slowly but steadily, 
| overtook the hare and won the race. The moral 
| is,
| 
|     'Slow but steady wins the race'. 
| 
| In recent time, some new chapters have been 
| added to this story.
| 
| The hare was perturbed by the defeat. He 
| asked the tortoise to race again. This time 
| he did not take rest and won the race easily. 
| The moral is,
| 
|     'It is better to be fast and reliable'. 
| 
| But, this is not the end of the story.

SpringSource Launches TomcatExpert.com

,----[ Quote ]
| SpringSource says theyâre expecting the site 
| to be the single go-to-one-stop place for all 
| your Apache Tomcat needs, be it 
| troubleshooting to application server 
| deployment. And thatâs kind of a big deal, 
| because, as the press release needs to remind 
| you â Apache Tomact is the âworldâs most 
| widely used Java application serverââ and 
| âSpringSource employeesâ are credited with 
| 95% of bux fixes to Apache Tomcat in the last 
| two years. Plus, a good handful of Tomcat 
| problem incidents are noted and fixed by 
| SpringSource before they reach the community. 
| SpringSource says itâs resulted in a 97% 
| renewal rate for Tomcat support. Sounds 
| pretty impressive.
