    Jodrell writes: "Randy Bush, internet architect and co-chair of the IETF's working group on DNS, has some interesting thoughts on the recent proposals to re-organise ICANN. Randy makes some interesting points about the likely result of allowing Government control into the DNSO, and on the current bloated condition of ICANN."

  2. Bioinformatics Books for the Technically Inclined?

    bookEnders asks: "I hold a BS and MS in Biology. For the past 6 years, I have worked as a computer programmer not in field of Biology. I have an upcoming interview (several weeks from now) for a Bioinformatics programmer position. It appears to be a great job for me - a marriage of University training and professional experience. As LISP is a requirement, I have been burrowing through David Lamkins's Successful LISP tutorial. However, I am having trouble finding Bioinformatics books that are geared toward my skills: most are written for Biologists who don't know Linux or PERL. Others are written for Computer Scientists who don't know squat about Biology. I know enough about both that neither set of these books is too valuable. Can someone (hopefully those in the field) suggest reference or tutorial materials to help me prepare for this interview?"
