Ottime notizie dall'Estremo Oriente.
Geoffrey Shea [Politecnico Università di Hong Kong] distribuisce un set
binario [DLLs] che permette di utilizzare SpatiaLite su Windows Mobile.
Quindi finalmente è disponibile un "vero" Spatial DBMS anche su smart device.
Mi risulta che qualche iniziativa analoga si stia muovendo anche sul versante
I-Phone; invece stranamente il silenzio regna sovrano dalle parti di Symbian.
... a proposito di flames GPL e dintorni ... il modello di sviluppo cooperativo
delle community Open Source funziona, eccome funziona ... ALLA GRANDE
ciao, Sandro
