About: Rhinohide is a Java implementation of the W3C DOM, layered over a
Web browser's native JavaScript. Comparable to Sun's Common DOM API, it
provides an interface for applets to manipulate their containing Web
pages, using a standard Java binding of the DOM. Coverage is still
incomplete, but it provides at least partial support for these DOM
features: Core level 3, XML, Events, Traversal, and Range.
Changes: Additional methods were implemented for Node, Document, and
DocumentType.

Thu, Mar 1st 2007 04:58
About: SimpleLogBook is a simple pilot's logbook. It's at a very early
stage at the moment and can only record basic flight information. The
flight information is stored as an XML file and can currently be used to
calculate total flight time across one or more flights.

which allows a new flight to be created using an existing one as a
template, and an auto-complete feature for the text fields in the flight
dialog. Additionally, a number of minor UI glitches have been fixed.
