sessions

Linuxaria: "tmux runs as a server-client system. A server is created automatically when necessary and holds a number of sessions, each of which may have a number of windows linked to it."

InternetNews: 20 years of Linux celebrations all rolled up into one event.

Debian: "We invite submissions of proposals for papers, presentations,discussion sessions and tutorials for Debconf11."

HowToForge: "FTP is a very insecure protocol because all passwords and all data are transferred in clear text. By using TLS, the whole communication can be encrypted, thus making FTP much more secure."

On the Zend Developer Zone the latest episode of their "ZendCon Sessions" podcast series has been posted.

This time it's Travis Swicegood's presentation, the Pragmatic Guide to Git.

Ubuntu User: "According to the Ubuntu wiki pages there will be a weekly question and answer series to be lead by community leaders and Canonical managers."

The number of Wi-Fi hotspot connections is expected to explode to 11 billion sessions by 2014, up from 2 billion this year as mobile devices proliferate, according to research firm In-Stat.

This growth in Wi-Fi sessions, which has largely contributed to the rise of public Wi-Fi zones, will easily outpace the number of available Wi-Fi hotspot venues, even as cellular operators continue to try offloading traffic from their networks.

I'm very excited to hear that the PHPUnConference Europe (@phpuceu on twitter) is coming to Manchester on February 19th and 20th!

So excited, in fact, that I've rushed out and bought my ticket (for a whole £40, that's a good investment in my opinion).

The event brings together the PHP community from across Europe to an unconference where the speakers are the presenters, and really anything goes!

I just added a blog post on the Sugar Developer Blog about Sessions and IE, detailing one quirky idiosyncrasy with how Internet Explorer won’t save sessions if the server name isn’t of the proper form.

An issue for ages, but one worth bringing up in case you haven’t had to spend an entire day trying to figure it out .

Enjoy!

Corey Ballou has posted a MongoDB-based session handler to his site with a new update back on July 1st.
