In the tutorial I presented at PyCon 2006 (called Text & Data Processing), I was surprised at the reaction to some techniques I used that I had thought were common knowledge. But many of the attendees were unaware of these tools that experienced Python programmers use without thinking. When in doubt: import this >>> import this Good: Elements of Style.

Its maintainer is Andrew Josey (ajosey at The Open Group ). Suggestions and contributions are always welcome. This document can be found on the world wide web at This article includes answers to the following. Q0. Q0. POSIX is a registered trademark of the IEEE. POSIX is an acronym for Portable Operating System Interface. Although originated to refer to the original IEEE Std 1003.1-1988, the name POSIX more correctly refers to a family of related standards: IEEE Std 1003.n (where n is a number) and the parts of ISO/IEC 9945. For a full listing of the project numbers see PASC Standing Document SD11. The name POSIX was suggested by Richard Stallman. The latest version of the POSIX.1 standard is IEEE Std 1003.1, 2013 Edition, developed by the Austin Group (see later).

The JMX technology provides the tools for building distributed, Web-based, modular and dynamic solutions for managing and monitoring devices, applications, and service-driven networks. By design, this standard is suitable for adapting legacy systems, implementing new management and monitoring solutions, and plugging into those of the future. Starting with the J2SE platform 5.0, JMX technology is included in the Java SE platform. Please see the JMX documentation for the J2SE 5.0 and Java SE 6 platforms. Previous versions of JMX technology are available here. May 4th, 2007Web Services Connector for JMX Agents (JSR 262): Early Access Draft 2 released.

The second early access release of JSR 262, Web Services Connector for JMX Agents has been released. Furthermore, the interoperability between JSR 262 and Microsoft Windows Remote Management (WinRM) and HP OpenView Operations Agent (HP-OVO) will be demonstrated during the Technical Session JMX Technology: Who's Doing What?
