As well as the (IBM) Eclipse IDE I especially like Aptana Studio and Easy Eclipse variants.

Aptana because of its video tutorials available at aptana.tv and Easy Eclipse because of its extensive range of pre-packaged add-ons, plug-ins & extensions :

DB

• Quantum

• PHP
• SimpleTest

• SubClipse
• MyLyn
• SubClipse MyLyn

• OrangeVolt
• TeXlipse

BitNami stacks are not VMs or software appliances but make it incredibly easy to install your favorite open source software. Application stacks include an open source application and all the dependencies necessary to run it, such as Apache, MySQL and PHP or Ruby. All you need to do is download the Stack, provide a few pieces of information when prompted by the installation wizard, and that's it. By the time you click 'finish', your new application will be ready to run. All stacks have been packaged using BitRock's multiplatform installer.

For example there are BitNami stacks for :

• Drupal Content Management
  
• RedMine Project Management
  

WebMin with the third party WebMinStats module is a great place to start monitoring the performance of your GNU/Linux LAMP system

ohloh have just introduced a new concept of open source software "stacks" which are collections of your favorite free libre open software grouped into functional collections for example for "desktop", "server", "PBX" etc.

You should be able to see the stacks I've created FSSE (server), OSDE (desktop) , VOIP & VIZZ (virtualisation)
@ http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/3283/stacks ! or read more @ http://www.ohloh.net/wiki/stack_faq

I've been readin the Apache Httpd Logs documentation for version 1.3, 2.0 and 2.2 :

• http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/logs.html
• http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/logs.html
• http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/logs.html

and noticed that in Apache Httpd 2.2 there are a couple of new modules / features that could be very useful for any development servers you run !

mod_logio adds in two additional LogFormat fields (%I and %O) that log the actual number of bytes received and sent on the network.

mod_log_forensic provides for forensic logging of client requests. Logging is done before and after processing a request, so the forensic log contains two log lines for each request. The forensic logger is very strict with no customizations. It can be an invaluable debugging and security tool.

The open source software movement is probably the single most significant development to the software industry ever. Open source software is free. "Freely distributed", "Freely accessible" and "Freely modifiable" - and it is this freedom that makes it so valuable.

The lure of open source software is that it is free—anyone can use it or modify it without license fees, and no vendor can lock users in for fixes and enhancements.

A review of the implementation showed that it met each of the business objectives specified for the project. Additional functionality was subsequently incorporated into the product by AGIMO, Squiz.net and other Matrix users. This has increased the capabilities of the product and is expected to lead to reduced cost and development times for future functionality, as more and more code is available for re-use.

Aside from being easy to implement, MySource Matrix also proved to be the most cost-effective site publishing solution for Oxford’s library network.  Because the CMS is open source, it’s free to use and own, meaning that OULS  & SERS have been able to control its development and support spend in a far more effective way than would be possible with alternative commercial systems.
