Accessories by the famous Italian brand Marni conquer more and more fans in all over the world. It is quite difficult to say why these simple bags arouse so much delight – probably this is Consuelo Castiglioni’s (the chief designer of Marni) talent to turn simple accessory into something very pretty, very elegant, very beautiful and very stylish handbag. Once you see bags from the new Marni collection you won’t forget them and you will definitely want to have one in your wardrobe. Their design is very simple and very laconic: a girl with such a bag looks even more feminine, tender and charming.
Castiglioni always chooses the most beautiful colors for her collections: chocolate brown, salmon-pink, red, beige. These colors are not combined in design of the bags, the designer prefers to create bags where only one color dominates.
The bags are very simply shaped. Some of them look more like evening bags (little rectangular “breifcases”), while others look like retro bags (these are purse – shaped bags that are made out of soft leather).
Perforation that became the main decoration of accessories from the Marni spring-summer collection again dominates. Marni again offers bags with perforation, however, this time the bags look simpler and more laconic than those that are already sold in shops.
If you like original Marni bags, than, no doubt you will like replica bags Marni. Replica bags Marni will amaze you by their great characteristics. Do you want your bag to be beautiful? Replica bags Marni are very beautiful. Do you want your bag to be made out of a high quality material? Replica bags Marni are made out of high quality materials. Do you want your bag to be accessibly priced? Replica bags Marni are very accessibly priced. Replica bags Marni are bags of your dream, you will like them and you will find among them the bag that will become one of your favorite accessories.
Last night’s EDGE Reception went really well – I was at home in the UK, and another well know Gen person (you know who you are !!!) was elsewhere in the UK, whilst we interacted with the EDGE Reception in the Venetian, Las Vegas – we had 2-way dialog and we could see the attendees at the reception through the webcam broadcasting in Second Life – just like we were there !

We had the chance to catch up with some friends and colleagues without ever leaving the UK !!!!!

Reading today’s CA World Today – page 11 talks about CA-Gen as a “Dream Machine” – reliable inside and cutting edge outside.
I totally agree with this notion- a Corolla is the example that they give – first with us in the 1960s it is reliable and safe to purchase.
So – lets go to the tuning shop and get those spoilers on….
….which is just what has happened in Holland for Schuitema – as detailed on page 14 of the same issue – a long-established reliable in-store application rearchitected (by Jumar) for the web……

Today’s issue of CA World Today (here) has a number of Gen-related articles.
Looking forward to the presentation entitled “Garanti’s Financial Application Powered by CA Gen” at 8:30 AM in Bellini 2003-2004.
In addition, there is the box-out on page 14 reviewing the “Long Haul” – that is – an investment in Gen over many years reaps benefits!
I would certainly agree that one way of getting the benefits of Gen IS to invest for the longer term, but on the flip side, one of the initial benefits of the tooling is that Enterprise-class systems can be built quickly and with a low developer count – so – YES – you will get benefits over time, but those benefits start being realised almost immediately your organisation is up and running.
Last day tomorrow !!!!!

The videos that were made of the EDGE Reception (both Real- and Second-Life versions) are now available for playing now from here – the download links are also available below:


Webcam Video of 1st Life Reception
Webcam Video of 2nd Life Reception
The First-Life video is very tongue-in-cheek – it perhaps illustrates the fun that was had at the event !
The Second-Life video follows the same format although with an altogether more staid music selection !
See them to believe them.
In my opinion, the EDGE Multiverse Reception (I believe a first for CA World) was a success – even though I wasn’t at the Venetian, I felt part of the event – let’s hope there are more of these !!!!

The videos that were posted here a few days ago are now available on the downloads section of the EDGE website – www.edgeusergroup.org.
It really is worth having a look around at the downloadable resources on the site, there are many presentations from previous EDGE conferences, useful code snippets, whitepapers and tools and utilities for the Gen Developer.
The EDGE website is really the “Window on the World” for Gen developers, and one of the first places you should go to get answers, resources and information about Gen. EDGE will give you direction and assistance in every aspect of Gen – sign up and get the benefits.

It’s been announced !
EDGE EMEA 2009 Conference this year is in Amsterdam.
I attended EDGE EMEA 2007 and found it to be a great place to interact and share views, knowledge and experiences with other Gen people – vendors, other customers and CA themselves.
It is one of the highlights of the European CA-Gen calendar – make every effort to addend this conference – if you’ve been before, you know how valuable it is – if you haven’t come along and find out.
My first EDGE conference was EDGE EMEA 2007 in Ditton Park, London – my second will be EDGE EMEA 2009 in Amsterdam – it will CERTAINLY not be my last !
EDIT:Here’s a MS-Outlook Appointment for you to download and put in your Diaries !!!!

10 Dec 2008 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EST (Rescheduled from 22/10/2008)
Duration 60 min.
Learn how to deploy and invoke a .NET proxy as a web service within IIS. The process is simple and can be used to easily access CA Gen servers with a web service interface. Using a .NET proxy does not limit support to just .NET Servers, the proxy is capable of accessing most CA Gen generated server platforms. This should interest any development groups looking for a quick and simple way to turn their existing servers into web services.

Gen is a multi-platform tool, and to take maximum advantage of this, when designing applications with the tool, it must be remembered that at some stage your application may need to be replatformed onto other hardware operating systems.
What this means in practice is that probably 99% of the Gen components will be deployable to the new platform with little if no issue, but as soon as EABs are introduced, the risk that there will be significant effort involved in replatforming those components. This goes for custom middleware implementations, and modified build scripts.
All of these aspects serve to increase the effort required to replatform a Gen application and also reduce the value that might have been gained by using Gen in the first place.
It has to be said, that there are things that Gen simply can’t do, so implementing those in EABs is obviously the only way to go, but be sensible in how this is done – don’t use operating system specific calls if at all possible, for example.
“Staying between the lines” and using as much pure Gen as possible is rather like using motorways/autobahn/freeways etc to get to your destination – well marked, easy to see and understand.
Try using “B-roads” or farm tracks (akin to using custom code and bespoke code in EABs) and the map is less clear and you will probably take longer and get more and more frustrated…..

Modern large organisations need to be able to control complex software deployments using industrial-strength configuration managament and distribution tools.
It follows, then that in a heterogeneous environment consisting of Gen components and non-Gen components, there are parts of the Gen lifecycle that need to be automated – this includes code generation and building.
For the most part, Gen can work in this arena, as most of the generators (encyclopedia-based, anyway) have CLI (command line interfaces). This works fine for online, batch, and client/server packaged components. Other types of packaging are not so controllable.
Once the code is generated, the compilation is usually straightforward enough to automate.
For Gen to be truly “Automatic for the People” (apologies to Mr. Stipe!) ALL types of packaging need to be controlled by the command line as well as though the toolset.
