AJC Software has just released the much anticipated major new version of AJC Active Backup. During testing this has proved very stable and now the BETA version is available for you to try.
AJC Active Backup effectively provides version control for your hard drive. Protects you while you work, from mistakes, file corruption and gives great peace of mind. A must for anyone who values their work, especially developers.
AJC Active Backup constantly monitors your computer for changes to your files and archives them as soon as you save. It keeps multiple versions of these files in a compact archive because it only stores the changes each time. You can compare your files to earlier versions to see what has changed and go back to any version. It does not slow your computer down because you only backup important files.
AJC Active Backup v2 has the following improvements over v1:
+ Complete rewrite with a modern UI.
+ Restore partial file changes back from your archives using built in AJC Diff v2. This lets you edit files while you are comparing them.
+ More visible overview of what folders you are monitoring for changes on the Home tab.
+ List of recently archived files is now kept when restarting the application.
+ Easier to set up and access file patterns etc.
+ You can change options live without having to stop monitoring for changes.
+ File patterns tester tool so you can test if a file will match your patterns.
+ New archives explorer lets you navigate through your backup archives more easily.
+ Its now easier to restore multiple files and you can see exactly where each file will go.
+ Includes the new AJC Revision Archive v2 archive viewer.
+ Compatible with AJC Sync backup archives.
+ For programmers: AJC Diff v2 offers code syntax highlighting.
+ For programmers: Visual Studio addin for you to access your archives more easily while you are coding.
+ Diagnostics mode lets you see what is happening when a file is detected. This helps if you don't know why a file is being backed up.
Read more and download from here:
http://www.ajcsoft.com/active-backup-2.htm
IMPORTANT NOTE for Active Backup v1 users:
It is best to uninstall v1 before you install v2. When you are asked to choose the archive destination base folder it will be best to pick a new location because v2 will upgrade the archives to a newer format that v1 cannot use. This is just in case you want to go back to v1.

Webinar, to be conducted in Spanish, will explore how IT professionals can use WSO2 API Manager to extend business processes and services across an enterprise’s ecosystem
Palo Alto, CA – November 25, 2013 – Increasingly, managed APIs are central to creating new business opportunities by extending processes and services across an ecosystem of customers, partners, and other groups within the organization. WSO2 will host a webinar featuring customer Molino de Ideas. In the session, Molino de Ideas will discuss how IT professionals can build an API ecosystem, drawing on the company’s own experiences using WSO2 API Manager.
“Ecosystems of APIs: Opening Your APIs to the World,” will be held Wednesday, December 11, from 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. GMT. It is being presented jointly by Isabelle Mauny, WSO2 director of product management, and Valentin Calero, technical coordinator and manager of API culture for Molino de Ideas, a leader of natural language processing (NLP). For more information on the one-hour webinar, which is being conducted in Spanish, visit http://wso2.com/library/webinars/2013/12/ecosistemas-de-apis-abre-tu-api-al-mundo.
Building an API Ecosystem
The webinar will explore how IT professionals can effectively build an API ecosystem and extend their business processes and services to different parties within an organization. It will begin by reviewing key API concepts and objectives such as documentation, dissemination, security, and monitoring. The session then will examine how Molino de Ideas used WSO2 API Manager to create and manage Apicultur, the platform dedicated to linguistic APIs.
Along the way, the webinar will explain how WSO2 API Manager provides complete solution for publishing APIs, creating and managing a developer community, as well as for routing API traffic in an effective and scalable manner. Finally, the webinar will look at various offerings in the market and how they can be used in conjunction with WSO2 API Manager.

Guest presenter Valentin Calero is a technical coordinator and manager of API culture for Molino de Ideas. He specializes in statistical qualification, programming and Web application development. With his strong background in educational and online entrepreneurship, Valentin helped lead the development of Apicultur.com, the API linguistics platform built using WSO2 API Manager.

About WSO2 API Manager
WSO2 API Manager (http://wso2.com/products/api-manager/) is the first 100% open source API management product to combine easy, managed API access with full API governance and analysis. As the first API management product to offer an API Store, it lets IT organizations set up their own Apple or Google Marketplace-like store where developers can easily subscribe to and consume APIs. Meanwhile it provides API publishers with complete API lifecycle governance—from creating to publishing, deprecating and retiring APIs—as well as analytics and metrics to support decision-making and enforce service-level agreement (SLA) policies.
WSO2 API Manager is built on the same WSO2 technology used by enterprises around the world, including a major online retailer (http://wso2.com/casestudies/ebay-uses-100-open-source-wso2-esb-to-process-more-than-1-billion-transactions-per-day/) that is handling more than 1 billion API calls per day. Providing full multi-tenancy, it runs directly on server hardware or in a virtualized environment, such as an Amazon or VMware cloud, bringing the efficiencies of multi-tenancy and self-service to on-premises deployments. Additionally, the cloud-ready WSO2 API Manager software can plug into the WSO2 platform as a service (PaaS) foundation to operate as part of a PaaS, adding cloud-native capabilities, such as elastic scaling, expanded self-service provisioning, metering, billing, and storage, among others.

IFPUG is pleased to announce the results of the world’s first certification exam for the Software Non-functional Assessment Process (SNAP) size measurement held at ISMA 8 in Rio de Janeiro Brazil. Twenty exam participants were awarded the title of “Certified SNAP Practitioner.” This first class of certified practitioners joins the hundreds of Certified Function Point Specialists across the globe certified by the International Function Point Users Group.
The Software Non-functional Assessment Process (SNAP) provides a quantifiable measure for the Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) which allows organizations to build historical data that can be referenced to assist in decision making for the technical and/or quality aspects of applications. Non-functional requirements which until the advent of SNAP have not been consistently measureable, can contribute substantially to the effort required to bring software projects to market. The inability to measure non-functional size has been one the major reasons that many software projects are late or over budget.
The SNAP standard provides organizations using IFPUG measures with a unique competitive advantage to those using other software sizing methods which do not account for non-functional software size. The Software Non-functional Assessment Process (SNAP) Assessment Practices Manual is released under a Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike License. IFPUG is the first international functional sizing standards organization to release a sizing standard under the Creative Commons License.
For more information about the IFPUG, visit www.ifpug.org.
About IFPUG
The International Function Point Users Group (IFPUG), a non-profit, volunteer organization, maintains the rules and procedures for calculating Function Points and the Software Non-functional Assessment Process (SNAP). The definitions, available from IFPUG, are documented in the Function Point Counting Practices Manual. IFPUG, the premier software measurement organization, promotes and encourages the effective management of software development and maintenance activities through the use of Function Point Analysis and other software measurement techniques. IFPUG conferences, workshops and membership provide a forum for networking, education and information exchange that encourages the use of software product and process metrics.

Webinar will examine how AgilePath optimized the connectivity, reliability and supportability of infrastructure for a United States Air Force program using WSO2 Governance Registry
Palo Alto, CA – November 14, 2013 – Technology adoption cycles continue to evolve as virtual machines and cloud-based solutions cut system deployment times down to hours. However the way system components talk to each other and connect has been slower to change, and point-to-point solutions remain pervasive throughout most modern infrastructures. To help address this challenge, WSO2 will host a case study webinar on using a service registry to enhance the supportability and reliability of infrastructure in a key United States Air Force (USAF) program.
The Webinar, “WSO2 and AgilePath - How the WSO2 Governance Registry is being used for a key Air Force Program,” will presented jointly by WSO2 and AgilePath Corporation, the IT professional services firm that implemented the USAF project. The session will be held Wednesday, November 20, from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PST. For more information, visit: http://wso2.com/library/webinars/2013/11/wso2-and-agile-path-how-the-wso2-governance-registry-is-being-used-for-a-key-air-force-program.
Enhancing Service Registry in the Air Force with WSO2 Governance Registry
The webinar will begin by examining how organizations that once feared the idea of loosely coupled systems connected with Web services are now chasing the curve with a cloud-enabled “as a service” paradigm, bringing a new set of challenges. These include unsanctioned applications, duplication of existing functionality, and the inability to document services in a central location.
The session will discuss how a service registry can serve as a tool to solve “as a service” challenges while improving the supportability and reliability of the infrastructure. It then will review how AgilePath selected WSO2 Governance Registry (http://wso2.com/products/governance-registry/) to provide well documented, easy-to-identify services with the ability to track service consumers. Additionally, it will discuss how AgilePath has extended the core data model to meet the needs of a key Air Force Program.
Session topics will include:
• An introduction to AgilePath.
• A discussion of service registry fundamentals.
• An overview of the registry tool selection process.
• How WSO2 Governance Registry is being used for a key USAF program.
• WSO2 Governance Registry product vision and core features.

New Version Adds Enhanced Translation Editor, More TM Connections, Enhanced Search and Matching, Segmentation Rules Editor, Streamlined Termbase Editor, Enhanced Word and PowerPoint Support, and More
La Jolla, CA, USA — November 5, 2013 — MadCap Software, Inc. the leader in multi-channel content authoring and a showcase company for Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Visual Studio® and Microsoft® XPS, today announced the launch of MadCap Lingo 8.0, the latest release of MadCap’s XML-based computer assisted translation (CAT) tool. Content developers worldwide have adopted the CAT tool along with the MadPak technical communications suite to deliver consistent documentation experiences across multiple languages—in print and on the Web, mobile devices and desktops. With Version 8.0, MadCap adds significant new functionality to support the broader needs of translation and localization professionals.
New features in MadCap Lingo 8.0 include:
* Advanced translation editor
* Streamlined termbase editor
* Support for multiple translation memory (TM) connections
* Enhanced support for Microsoft® Word™ and
* PowerPoint® documents
* SQLite database support, concordance search
* Support for 101% matches.
* New segmentation rules editor
“We first developed MadCap Lingo to support a superior and streamlined translation experience for authors needing to translate content into multiple languages. Since then, we have seen a rapid adoption of MadCap Lingo as a robust standalone CAT product that not only benefits the author during content creation, saving content authors time and money, but also is used by translators and localization experts worldwide in the translation process of any content,” said Anthony Olivier, MadCap Founder and CEO. “With MadCap Lingo 8.0, we are building on this success to deliver a state-of-the-art product that addresses the broad set of demands facing today’s translation and localization professionals to enhance the quality of their translations while also facilitating collaboration and streamlining the authoring and localization process.”
MadCap Lingo 8.0 – Designed for Translation Professionals’ Demands
MadCap Lingo 8.0 delivers significantly expanded functionality designed for translation and localization professionals’ needs.
Advanced Translation Editor
Starting with this version, there is no longer an area in the editor designated specifically for performing translation work. Instead, translations are now done directly in the target segment cells, and these cells initially appear empty and without background color to eliminate clutter. Also, a new option that lets users automatically copy a number from the source to the target cell, helping to ensure that users do not accidentally retype an incorrect number during the translation.
A new segment filter has been added at the top of the Translation Editor, which can be used to limit the segments shown in the editor and helps the translator to make sure that terms are consistent throughout a file. It is also now possible to add notes for each segment, such as a reminder to do additional research about a term or an explanation for a reviewer about why a particular translation was used.
Additionally, several options are now available from the context menu when a user right-clicks a segment in the Translation Editor. These include Cut, Copy, Paste, Confirm (confirms the translation), Split Segment (breaks the segment at the point where the cursor is placed), and Join Segments (merges selected segments into a single segment).
Support for Multiple Translation Memory Connections
In previous versions, users could select one TM database per Lingo project. Starting with Version 8.0, users can connect multiple TM databases to their products. To support this change, the user interface has been modified in the Start New Project Wizard and the dialog used for choosing a TM database. MadCap Lingo also adds the ability to import more TM file types, including: SDLXLIFF (newer SDL Trados files), TTX (older SDL Trados files), and TXML (Wordfast files).
SQLite Database Support
MadCap Lingo now supports SQLite, which is a self-contained open source relational database system. In Lingo, SQLite offers an easier and faster option for local TM databases, and it is automatically installed during the process of installing Lingo. For TMs residing on an external server, the preferred option is still SQL Express, which is more robust.
Segmentation Rules Editor
With Version 8.0, MadCap Lingo provides two ways for users to either join segments in the Translation together or split them apart. This can be accomplished automatically by creating segmentation rules using the format specified by the Segmentation Rules eXchange (SRX) standard. Alternatively, users can join or split segments manually.
Streamlined Termbase Editor
The Termbase Editor has been significantly streamlined. In contrast to previous MadCap Lingo versions where different options were located in multiple dialogs, the editor in Version 8.0 has been flattened to include all options. As a result, translators can add terms for various languages with their respective metadata—including gender, part of speech, usage, and more—all in the same place.
Concordance Search
MadCap Lingo lets translators use a concordance to perform advanced searches in one or more TMs. This means users can search for words they have already translated to maintain consistency. The concordance searches across the entire TM, greatly simplifying the ability to get into previously used terminology. In contrast, the search filter in the Translation Editor looks only in the current file.
Support for 101% Matches
In addition to exact and fuzzy matches, MadCap Lingo now supports context matches (also known as "101% matches") in the TM, as well as repetition segments, increasing the efficiency of updates. Context matches consider the context by looking the segments before and after the one in question when making the TM suggestion. Meanwhile repetitions address segments that are identical within the same file (not from the TM). Finally, context repetition considers segments both in the TM and in the file.
Enhanced Microsoft® Word™ and PowerPoint Support
MadCap Lingo 8.0 provides cleaner imports of Microsoft® Word files, so there are far fewer tags in Word segments when they are displayed in the Translation Editor. Additionally, users can now preview both Microsoft® Word™ and Microsoft® PowerPoint® segments in the Translation Editor, enabling translators to see the content as it will actually be seen by others.
MadCap Lingo 8.0 Features to be Presented at ATA Conference
MadCap will demonstrate MadCap Lingo 8.0 at the American Translators Association 54th Annual Conference (ATA), which runs November 6-9, 2013, at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antionio, TX. Visit Madcap at Booth #46.
Additionally MadCap Product Evangelist Jose Sermeno will present a tutorial at ATA, “Using MadCap Lingo for Localization”. This beginner-level demonstration will illustrate typical workflow models for using MadCap Lingo from the vantage point of the content developer managing the translation process (sending content out for translation), as well as the independent translator working with the files to provide translated material.
* When: Thursday, 2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.
* Where: Conference 18, Third Floor

Perpetual standalone licenses are priced at $599 for a single license, $1,995 for five licenses, and $2,990 for ten licenses. Subscription licenses for MadCap Lingo are available at $149 for three months, $299 for six months, and $449 for twelve months. MadPak is priced at $1,499 per license, and it includes MadCap Lingo 6.0, MadCap Flare 9.0, MadCap Contributor 5.0, MadCap Analyzer 6.0, MadCap Capture 6.0, and MadCap Mimic 7.0. Maintenance (support and subscription) fees start at $199 per year for the Bronze Level, $299 for the Gold Level, and $499 for the Platinum Level. Discounts for multiyear maintenance contracts are also available.
MadCap Lingo and the MadPak also are available through MadCap Software’s two enterprise-licensing models.
The Multi-User license allows companies to buy a single license key for as many dedicated users as they need, simplifying the installation and license management process. No registration is required; a single license key manages all users and activations.
The Floating license is designed for organizations that standardize on Mimic or the MadPak, and it is based on concurrent users rather than dedicated users. Therefore, any number of users can activate the software under a single license key. The only limit is how many users can work in the software at the same time. MadCap’s software can even be installed on a central server, such as Citrix, allowing for users to access it remotely. Floating licenses include access to all product upgrades and updates as they become available.
Both licensing options include access to the highest levels of MadCap technical support. For more information call 1-888-MadCap1.
