Buy me a beer!

I like to develop and maintain some softwares that I really want to keep both free of charge and open source. I’d like to think about new projects and ideas when I sit in front of some food and something to drink. So if you like my works and want to see more stuff and also want frequent updates, more stability and even more support, you can help me doing that by buying me a beer (or something like that) and making me to save some money when I need to think on the next big thing! You can use the box in the right side-bar, if you want! Well, thank you all in any case!

WordPress Plugin: WP-UnitPNGfix

My first (official) plugin for WordPress has been released. The plugin works on img html tags and background attributes to fix the wrong behavior of IE6 (and previous versions) w.r.t. trasparent PNGs. It relies on the Unit PNG fix solution. I wish to thank Claudio for letting me know about it.

Fore more details, take a look to the LIBSVM Plus page under the “Updated python tools” and “More python tools” sections.

See you soon for news about the kernels.
