Tue, 24 March 2009 Some listeners have reported problems downloading the latest episodes. This appears to be a libsyn issue, as described on the libsyn support blog: CDN Issues 9:00am
EST - We experienced an issue with our CDN last night that caused
issues with new file uploads. Our network team communicated with a
service provider to resolve the issue, and uploading has been restored.
If users notice any issues with recently upload files, please email
support@libsyn.com for assistance. We apologize for the inconvenience.
9:30am
EST - We have heard reports from users that some recently uploaded
media files are unavailable for download. Please report any issues to
support@libsyn.com.
Update
1:00pm EST - We are aware that the issue goes back to files uploaded
since 3/11 - we have a script running that will be fixing the issue for
these episodes. We appreciate your patience while we continue to work
towards resolution.
It sounds like they are on top of it, and normal service should be restored soon. We are very happy with libsyn, and issues like this are far more rare than they would likely be if we tried to run our own service to deliver content, so please be patient and hang in there. I will check in later to make sure things are working again. Dick Update:Downloads seem to be working again as of 1.30pm PST Tuesday March 24th. Thanks to Libsyn for a quick response.

Fri, 20 March 2009 The eagle-eared of you may have noticed a new feature at the beginning of the Java Posse this episode - a chance for you to sing your own Karaoke version of the Java Jing Jing theme song.
In truth it is missing because I was in a hurry and hit the export track rather than export all tracks option in audacity, and I didn't notice the problem until too late. I could fix it, but Tor and I decided that it would be quite fun to leave it as it is. The music is missing from the end of this one as well.
Perhaps we could put the idea out there that the silence is protesting something :-). The whole Eircom thing sounds like a good excuse. Solidarity brothers.
Anyway, normal service will be resumed in the next podcast, for now - enjoy your singing.

Rich Internet Application Ecosystem
Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.comThis
was recorded before the release of Java 6 U 10 and JavaFX, so many of
the points about the size and performance of Java applets are no longer
true, nor is the prediction that interest may be lost in JavaFX after
JavaOne. It will be interesting to revisit this subject at the upcoming
Java Posse Roundup 2009. - DHTML
- GWT
- Silverlight
- JavaFX
- Flex
- OpenLaszlo
- BitTorrent library for Java
- Dojo
- Java Swing
- JavaFX tooling
- JPA - Java Persistence API
- Harness JPA from Flex

200 Episodes of the Java Posse
Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com
A look back at the first 200 (ish) episodes of the Java Posse
WARNING: This podcast is LONG, and it does not cover any Java news. You
have been warned! We ran to about 1 hour 45 minutes and had a blast.
This episode will be particularly useful to you if you have not
listened to all of our episodes, since we discuss milestones,
interviewees, highlights and other standout material you might not have
heard before.
In particular, many of the interviews we have done in the past are
still relevant today, and cover information people have been asking for
recently!
We have provided links to the interviews and roundup sessions below.
For links to other episodes please look on the right side of the Java
Posse site - http://javaposse.com - where our archives are organized by
month, or use the search (top right) to find an episode number or
subject.
