Slashdot Mirror
A New Model for Software Innovation
An anonymous reader writes "In this whitepaper published at LinuxDevices.com, Matt Asay (former Linux naysayer-turned-disciple) analyzes the GPL, picking apart what it means (and does not mean) for users, and whether it is enforceable. Assay also details how its terms inhibit and foster innovation, and why we should care. In this next generation of software, those who understand 'copyleft' licenses like the GPL will have the upper-hand, and will be best positioned to take on closed-source shops like Microsoft. Assay wrote this paper while attending Stanford Law School, where he studied the the GNU General Public License under Professor Larry Lessig." A thoughtful piece that answers - as well as they can be answered - a lot of the questions about the GPL that we get for Ask Slashdot, as well as examining the economics of it. Good reading for anyone developing or selling software.

Taco, I want you to fuck me in the ass please. I am dying to be anally accosted. I want to be ravaged like hog. I want you to dress like a farmer and make me oink like a pig. I want an ass reaming like no other. Taco, I haven't had this kind of lust for you since the crazy college days. We used to butt fuck each other in the stalls. You always told me not to flush and preferred using my feces as apposed to real lubricant. I remember your chocolaty member, your manhood, draped in my feces. Man, Robbie, I remember. I was day dreaming, escaping into a nether world where we used to fornicate, and live in fornicatory bliss. You used to like to keep your tubes socks on to enhance they gay look. We were so flitty and light on out feet. I am so very confused these days. I have difficulty conceptualizing the time that was then in contrast to now. I mean, first you were a raging homosexual, now you deprecate me in favor of this "woman." I know that bitch is a transvestite. You are closeting your homosexuality and denying your roots in my ass!
Don't be fooled! This man knows how to suck a dick. He may nibble, and bite, and pretend to be sheepish at first, but deep down this cock loving acolyte of shaft licks cock like a bar maid.
I am destabilizing. The world is going dark to me. I have scintillating threads of motley thoughts, my ability to control my self evanesces away! I have only an adamantine desire to see your balloon knot once again, and to have you ravage mine! I see a world of GOATS. A goat fucking extravaganza. I invoke the ANUS of DOOM! I hate Taco.

Raw and dilated man-pussy. Put back the trouser snake, Tako. You dick is way too small for this man's ass.
A Prolapsed rectum is sure to whet even the most jaded flaming fuck's appetite. Tak0, your penis is regrettably way too small, even for your "Fiancée's" unfettered anus. She doesn't want to dirty her ass with the likes of your pathetic member.

It's people like you that can save the future of slashdot.org.
We must travel forward outside of the past and prevent the the the the slashdot editors from posting stories they don't read.
Be warry of people you meet in the past; one of the goes by the name of Biff Katz and he's the raging homosexual who terrifies little Timothy after the prom and porgy Rob Malda fights Biff Katz to save his non-violated transvestite censore-ware friend from serious anal penetration.
Hey, look, a lightning storm...
Something is seroiously wrong I cannot post on any forum.

It actualy has non-biased reviews of software and hardware. Linuxdevices.com is an asset to the Linux software revolution that many new linux users will surely visit for information on the linux world. Linuxnewbies.org also is a great asset; a place where both new users and prophesional linux programmers visit and converse in the many applications and usage of an operating system utilizing a linux kernel. I tenderly clap my hands in applaud for linuxdevices.com. I remember when linuxdevices.com was a small website running slashcode and its editors posted quality stories, interviews, observations, and thoughts on the computer industry with the precision of true journalists. My red hat comes off for you; may you live long and prosper.

I am the nightmare of nightmares.
Dudes: can anybody tell me what the hell a whitepaper is? How can it be a whitepaper if its all electronic? How is a whitepaper different than a normal paper? This smells to me of Dilbert's boss doublespeak.
