Open Source in Government

A reader writes: "There is a feature running on NF about a conference this October. More information can be found on the conference website." It's worth pointing that despite the fact that the conference is two days long, the organizers have asked for material submissions to be included in the conference handbook. So, if you've got some materials/thoughts, start polishing them up.

    Condit's problem was that his legacy input device had gained too much bandwidth. A new input device with a lightweight controlling process will make him responsive again.

    Unfortunately the process is owned by root and something comes along and kills it.

    KNOWN ISSUE: You might have to interrogate Condit multiple times before he acknowledges that he has a connection to this device.

    There is no mod option "-1: Disagree" for a reason. "Overrated" is not an acceptable substitute. Post something instead.
