78-Boa-Constructor is under slow development at version 0.6.1, having taken five years to rise from 0.4.3. At that rate it will take another 10 years for version 1.0 to be released. Part of the slow development problem is that Boa-Constructor is a mix of several different projects (Python, wxPython, etc...), each having their own development schedules. Python itself has undergone a radical version change to 3.0. Co-ordination of these projects can be problematic or show stopping. There are no usable apps built with Boa-Constructor in the repository and none can be found on the Internet.

FLTK provides GUI functionality without the bloat and supports 3D graphics via OpenGL® and its built-in GLUT emulation. FLTK was designed to be statically linked. This was done by splitting it into many small objects and designing it so that functions that are not used do not have pointers to them in the parts that are used, and thus do not get linked in. This allows you to make an easy-to-install program, or to modify FLTK to the exact requirements of your application, without worrying about bloat. FLTK works fine as a shared library, though, and has started being included on Linux distributions. FLTK software can be written using the "Fast Light User Interface Designer", or FLUID, a graphical editor that is used to produce FLTK source code. The GUI widget set, however, is sparse quantity and spartan in methods and properties, limiting FLTK to use on light projects.

The version marked "current" on their website is 3.6.7, which was released in June of 2009. That page lists the current development at version 3.9.2, leading to a 3.10 release.

915-Scheme was one of the first programming languages to incorporate first class procedures as in the lambda calculus, thereby proving the usefulness of static scope rules and block structure in a dynamically typed language. Scheme was the first major dialect of Lisp to distinguish procedures from lambda expressions and symbols, to use a single lexical environment for all variables, and to evaluate the operator position of a procedure call in the same way as an operand position. By relying entirely on procedure calls to express iteration, Scheme emphasized the fact that tail-recursive procedure calls are essentially goto's that pass arguments. Scheme was the first widely used programming language to embrace first class escape procedures, from which all previously known sequential control structures can be synthesized. More recently, building upon the design of generic arithmetic in Common Lisp, Scheme introduced the concept of exact and inexact numbers. Scheme is also the first programming language to support hygienic macros, which permit the syntax of a block-structured language to be extended reliably.

1117-<application>NetBeans IDE 6.9</application> is an award-winning integrated development environment available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The NetBeans project consists of a free open-source IDE and an application platform that enable developers to rapidly create web, enterprise, desktop, and mobile applications using the Java platform, as well as JavaFX, PHP, JavaScript and Ajax, Ruby and Ruby on Rails, Groovy and Grails, and C/C++. NetBeans IDE 6.9 introduces the JavaFX Composer, support for JavaFX SDK 1.3, OSGi interoperability, support for the PHP Zend framework and Ruby on Rails 3.0, and more. Like most modern IDE's it extends its capabilities by using the plugin paradigm and because of its long period of development and large number of users who contributed to its development, there are hundreds of plugins available. The majority of the NetBeans IDE code is available under a dual license consisting of the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL) v1.0 and the GNU General Public License (GPL) v2. No license fee is required to use NetBeans and any commercial application you write does not have to be distributed with the source. Sun no longer exists, having been purchased by Oracle, which now controls Java.
