  Servlets must DIE! Slowly!!
• (11.1.2004 zapisky.info) An online library for developers
• (12.1.2004 ROOT.CZ) Robocode 3 — A conclusion for more advanced users
• (14.1.2004 Interval.cz) ActionScript 2.0
• (15.1.2004 PcPro) INTERVIEW: Richard Stallman on 20 years of GNU

This week I’d like to pause on the ActionScript 2.0 article. Version 2.0 of the ActionScript
 language is the first implementation of the forthcoming 
 ECMAScript Edition 4 specification. The same specification is also the basis for the scripting
 languages JavaScript (Gecko) and JScript (Internet Explorer). We can already get an idea of how much more we’ll be able to do
 with client-side scripts once we move to ECMAScript 4.0. At present browsers implement ECMAScript 3.0.
