Hi,
A client of mine is moving towards .net as their common dev platform. They have a mix of components written in VC++ and VB (Visual Studio 6).
Primarily they write com+ based applications, i.e. distributed systems. We intend to almost completely redevelop their existing systems, which have been in place for some time, however a few of the current components will remain in operation for the forseeable future, e.g. security components, mainframe access components, etc.
While my own preference is for them to adopt C# as their primary managed language, I will have to present some valid comparisons between VB.Net and C#.
Does anyone know of any language comparisons available on the web? In particular the strengths and weaknesses of each language.
Also, regarding COM+ v. Remote Components, are there any resources available which detail the pros and cons of distributed systems in .Net with and without COM+.
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards.

Hello all,
I'm in a bit of a problem I'm given a project making an online
shopping system for a professional barbershop. But I'm with a small
problem in witch language to make the system.
My choice would be PHP but I hear from many people that asp.net is
better and more stable.
So I ask you what your experience with asp.net and PHP is.
Thank you already,

This article is posted at the request of C.W. Yang who
asked me to detail my opinion of Lisp, and for the benefit
of people like him, who may find themselves intrigued by
this language.
The opinions expressed herein are my personal ones, coming
from several years of experience with Lisp. I did plenty of
AI programming back in the day, which is what would now be
called "search" instead.

I'd like to know what other people think about Python. In particular, what
is Python best suited for?
I've been using Python for a little while now and in my opinion Python is a
great all-terrain language. I would describe it as concrete scaffolding.
Could anyone comment on how Python fares against C++, Java and Perl?
Jens.

I am new to XML Schema and am running into a bit of a snag. I have
defined an XML-based scripting language for an updater program that I
am working on. I would like to make a schema for this language since
malformed XML documents break the updater. (I did not have time to add
good error-handling code, so run-time errors can abound if the document
is malformed.)
A sample doc might look something like this:

Hello,
I am a beginner with PHP, and I have made a language switcher on a site
that I am looking for your feedback on.
First of all, the page is http://www.mankar.ca
My question regarding usage is - well, does it work? Can you continue
browsing in your selected language? I am especially interested in people
using an IE browser with a locale setting that is not english or french.
