Reposting TDM Articles

Like some other authors (Hallvard Vassbotn, Bob Swart) I'll be republishing articles I wrote for The Delphi Magazine. [Chris, thanks for the permission!]

Unlike Dr. Bob and Hallvard I won't have problems with choosing from my TDM articles - I published much less than them so I'll simply republish everything :)

In the next months you can expect online versions of my articles:

• Safer Sockets [TDM #44]
  Describes an issue with TWinSocketStream and a presents a workaround.

  The art of timezones. Introduces GpTimezone unit, which is still alive and regularly updated.
• Let's Cooperate [TDM #68]

• To Manage Memory [TDM #126]
  An introduction to memory management algorithms and structures plus a short overview of the (at that time very young) FastMM memory manager.

And that's all folks. I'll probably attack this list in chronological manner. If you have any preferences I may make an exception and change priorities so don't be afraid to ask for article you want to read first.
