We also use mockito for unit testing to test each layer in isolation as you suggest here too. Building up a suite of tests saves a lot of time in the long run and gives the everybody more confidence and assurance about a release. Hope all is well with you.

Since Firefox 3 is now in Sinhala, I thought it was time to port a Windows OpenType font to the Mac, but I am not sure which one to choose. I looked for opinions on which fonts were nice for native speakers (I am English) and could only find yours blog :-) The Mac has a different font rendering engine from Windows, so the fonts look different (thicker/thinner strokes in places, different kerning and leading. I have provided the same text for you to compare against here: http://web.nickshanks.com/typography/sinhala/ Please ignore the fact that the characters are in the wrong order and vowels are generally broken, as that is what I intend to fix once I've chosen a font to work on. Also, do you know what the redistribution licenses are for these? Hi there.

It took me forever to realize what the issue was, but once I did, (with your post) it was an easy solution. Just as an FYI, running: "/usr/sbin/squid3 -NCd1" allowed me to see that I was getting permissions errors on cache.log and access.log (which led me to your post). I was hoping, from that command, to see a core dump :) Thanks again. P.S. Just an FYI I added a link to your site on my blog: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://waxingcatatonic.blogspot.com/2008/04/squid-file-permissions.html" rel="nofollow">http://waxingcatatonic.blogspot.com/2008/04/squid-file-permissions.html</a> This is _verbatim_ the issue I was having - so thank you so much for the info.
