Wanted: DBGP (Xdebug) client
Xdebug is finally nearing version 2 and the only really important thing missing is a good and simple client that can speak the DBGp to interact with Xdebug . As I have no clue myself about GUI programming, I am hereby asking for your help to write a simple GUI application (QT/KDE/GTK/Gnome) that can do this.
This GUI application should be as standalone as possible, run on Linux and implement the full DBGp specification, including setting breakpoints, seeing stack traces, inspecting variables and stepping through code. Editting scripts in the interface should not even be possible.
If you are interested, feel free to write me at either derick@xdebug.org or preferrably through the xdebug-general@lists.xdebug.org mailinglist. I can provide all the help that you need with the protocol.

It would be interesting to see a PHP-GTK2 application for this.
I've started this many times. I've got a basic PHP class to interact with DBGp if anyone is interested in that. I also started tinkering with PHP-GTK and DBGp, but I haven't had much chance to actually get anything done.
Let me know if you're interested (this is directed at anyone, not just Derick).

PHPEclipse plugin for Eclipse supports XDebug in a developpement build. Maybe it will suit your needs.
@JMF: No, I don't want an IDE, there are plenty of those. What I am looking for is a simply debug client without a lot of overhead. Speed is very important, and simplicity as well.
Sean - if you can dump that class somewhere, may take a shot with wxPython, following from this experiment: http://wxdebug.python-hosting.com/
In theory that would be cross-platform (GTK2 on Linux)
@Harry: There is already a python based client (command line) and a set of classes for it. It's available in http://downloads.activestate.com/Komodo/RemoteDebugging/4.0/Linux/Komodo-PythonRemoteDebugging-4.0.0-alpha6-268691-linux-x86.tar.gz
Sean, can you post your class somewhere, I'd be interested in having a look at it.
I don't know about Linux, but I already made a GUI with Cocoa for MacOSX. Unfortunately, this was for version 1 and it doesn't work with 2. I stopped development, waiting for the project to get more stable.
I don't know dbgp at all, I will have to learn. I don't care about an IDE neither.
Eventually, you can send me the class to golgote at gmail.com Thanks.
Derick, how about tsWebEditor. Open source at http://tswebeditor.net.tc Tigris.org project http://tswebeditor.net.tc
Life Line
I've finished reading This Way Up. It's about maps, that went wrong.
It's a good read, but htyerr were several chapters that were written in a novel way (as a video transcript, a series of letters), and I found distracting from the a tail content. It'll have worked better in a produced video.
No mention of @openstreetmap though :-(

The Early Cormorant Catches the Eel
Sorry, not the best photo! But I caught this Cormorant catching this large eel when looking for Bank Swallows, right next to Eel Pie Island in the Thames.

Updated an estate_agent office
I went to my nieces' birthday party yesterday.
The theme was pink, and that included all the food, mostly died with beet root.
Shock and horror this morning when doing number two. Not only was my turd dark red, it was also glittering at me. Apparently the carrot cake had edible glitter...
So now I know what's worse than glitter.

I've been spending some time in random London local nature reserves.
Sitting and listening, and in fifteen minutes you spot countless species.
This one was in Ham Lands Local Nature Reserve near Teddington.
