Linksys and the GPL, Again
Rob Flickenger writes "While poking around on the Linksys WRT54G (one of the new Linux 2.4.5 based APs) at a SeattleWireless Hack Night session, we noticed a number of binaries in their firmware (including Zebra, PPP 2.4.1, and iptables to name three) that are released under the GPL, some of which are obviously modified. The question is, where is the source code to Linksys' modifications? Their "GPL Code Center" has the packages, but they are the pristine distributions, without any changes whatsoever. I've asked Linksys for clarification, but given Linksys' customer service reputation, I highly encourage other interested parties to ask them as well. More details are up on my weblog on oreillynet.com."

These days, any GPL'ed work seems to be ala-carte "public domain", till you get caught. Then it's a "release half-assed source" to make developers you actually care.
Then again, how's it to take OUR OWN medicine? They're violating out copyright, as we violate others' copyrights.
What a hipocritical web we weave.
My dear brothers, praise Allah, the evil imperialist non-believers at Linksys shall be smote into the fiery flames of hell. I call upon my dear brothers to see that these pigs, these pigs who deserve to be shunned and pummeled with shoes, die deaths of a thousand screams. A fatwa I call upon them. Let no Linksys employee enjoy the stolen fruits of my Allah fearing brothers' labour.
In answering this fatwa, many of you Allah fearing brothers will perish in the explosions and flames that you shall set upon the infidels, but Allah is waiting in the afterlife with virgins to satisfy your every whim. Allah Praise Islam, religion of peace, tolerance and understanding!
Bwaahahah! MySQL? YOU fail it! I just don't understand why you MySQL fan/fag boys keep recommending that piece of shit, when PostgreSQL is just as free, just as open source, but kicks the living SHIT out of MySQL with SQL92 compliance, featuresets, atomic transactions, subqueries, stored procedures, better scaling, parallelism, replication, and data backup.
Fucking amateur.
