I’ve been using this framework in a couple of projects now and I’m impressed by how fast it allows me to develop web applications. That being said, it’s often that way that if something makes development fast, it also makes execution slow. CakePHP comes with a rather serious overhead so I hope further versions of the 1.2 branch will be dedicated to performance improvements.

Anyway, I want to thank the CakePHP team for all the time and effort they’re investing in the project!

I think this is a huge mistake in todays marked.

Even Microsoft(!) has realized that they have to add Linux support for their Silverlight platform and is doing so together with the help of Novell and their Moonlight project (whom actually had their second beta release two days ago).

It is going to be reallyt exciting to see all the competing RIA plattforms evolving the next year. Adobe obviously has a rather large head start with their FLEX platform due to the huge adoption of Flash. Microsoft has the money and monoply to support Silverlight which leaves Sun broke and desperate.

It pains me to say so I’m afraid that JavaFX is a last desperate act, although they deserve a smack for letting developers stuck with the horrible state their applet mess for so many years!

At first I thought that I’d messed up my code some how, but Firefox turned out to be the culprit.

Anyhuu.. The problem has a simple fix: Type about:config in Firefox’s location field, search for ipv6 and set network.dns.DisbleIPv6 to true.
