Los Angeles Gets Own TLD

DM420 writes "On June 9th, Los Angeles officially becomes the world's first city to have its own Internet domain.Great to hear since one day I hope to be an owner of my own TLD and this is a step in the right direction. ;) The registry is located at www.la and further details at DMnews.com" Looks like an Irish firm made a deal with Laos to use the .la TLD. Looks to be on the pricier side of domains, though.

    SCO needs a way to make sure that its Unix programs aren't being pirated. The only way to do that is to make sure that the appropriate libraries arent being copied, stolen, etc.. from unix to linux. Apparently they think they can license the libraries and make $. The linux API's do not allow unix programs to run without the libraries. SCO naturally wants their applications to work on linux cause they make $ that way. They accuse IBM and Redhat, and Suse of giving the knowledge of how to incorporate unis libraries into linux. It wont fly, because in there white paper (linked above) they state that the native linux API is open source and therfore i take it "clean". I hope someone out there reads this and lets me know if what im reading is correct. So in essense they want us to buy a 140$ system v license in order to run unix programs that we do not even need. See? The linux libraries are NOT infringing on system v code if they are left native. The problem is when corp. xyz decides to migrate from unix to linux and keep their nifty system v programs. Please read scos white paper below
