Microsoft starts official Web Messenger trial.
Microsoft Corp. has launched a test version of a Web-based MSN Messenger client that allows users to connect to the instant messaging (IM) service without installing a client application.
The beta version comes a week after Microsoft accidentally gave a sneak preview of the Web-based IM client. The company removed the pages hosting the Web Messenger on an MSN test Web site after the service attracted attention from MSN Messenger enthusiasts and the media.
The English version of MSN Web Messenger is at: http://webmessenger.msn.com/

Apache gains embeddable Java database.
IBM has donated an embeddable Java-based relational database with a 2MB footprint to the Apache Software Foundation. The Derby database was donated to "spur communal innovation for Java application development," according to Big Blue, and create business opportunities for applications that use embedded databases or are used by small businesses.
"Derby" is IBM's current name for Cloudscape, a relational database developed by Informix and ported to Linux in June, 2000. The database has a 2MB footprint and requires no administration: this allows it to be "embedded," or completely controlled from within an application. Cloudscape is currently embedded in several IBM products, including its WebSphere Portal and WebSphere Application Server.

At some point in the future, IBM plans to re-introduce Cloudscape as a standalone commercial product. The commercial version of Cloudscape will share a codebase with the open source Derby project, IBM says.
