Working with replicants, and a lengthy letter from Michael Phipps form issue 56 of the Haiku Newsletter.

Hartmut Reh walks us through some additions to a previous article on Replicants, where Hartmut explained how to use RepliShow, a great little utility originally designed by Seth Flaxman.

Hartmut this time introduces the use of transparency to really make Replicants shine, and let me say, I was impressed by the screenshot showing the ol' fearless leader, JLG. :) You'll have to read the full skinny yourself.

Michael Phipps pontificates (a lot) on how close ties can bring a community to deal with a myriad of tasks. Interesting reading and food for thought to be sure. I'll just hint that horses, buggys, and barns are involved. Go read to find out more.
