KDesktop is the thing in kdebase that puts up your wallpaper, optionally displays icons, manages the screensaver, and basic desktop services like that.
KDesktop *is* included in kdebase, as always, but it has nothing to do with networking.
The name does fits in with other KDE alpha release names, like Krash.
Anyway, Brokenboring comes from a proposal that was made during the KDE 3.2 development cycle. "Brockenboring" was the name given to the proposal, and a detractor quickly turned that into "Brokenboring."
See http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=105655450 429442 for the proposal and http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=105722962 907440 for some of the criticism.
Nah, it's not starting with obvious things like kwin. The Havoc-ification of KDE started with XDG Desktop Files, then it'll be DBUS, then it'll be GConf.
Senator Hackenbush (E-HO) has sponsored SB433a: the Communications Despamification Act. Write your Senator now and tell him he needs to support the CDA!
At least in America, legal tender only applies to debts. If you owed $100 on your credit card they have to take the $100 bill, but nothing forces them to take the $100 bill from you under other circumstances.
While this 1986 CAN $2 I have says "This note is legal tender / Ce billet a cours legal", the US text is more specific. It says "This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private."
Bzzzzzt. You lose. Some ISPs will reject mail from their customers based on the From field.
So what you are actually demanding is that everyone abandon the idea of having their own mail address, and instead use some ephemeral ISP-provided mail address. Lovely.
The US Supreme Court ruled that timeshifting was fine under copyright law in Sony Corp. of Am. v. Universal City Studios, Inc. and also held that selling a VCR (called a VTR at the time) was not contributory infringement.
And my understanding is that while the DMCA may challenge the manufacture and sale of the implements of fair use, fair use itself is unaltered. So if it was legal in 84, it's legal now.
Of course Red Hat respects the mp3 patents. Red Hat (through employee Ingo Molnar) is applying for its own software patents, after all. If Red Hat does anything to interfere with the mp3 patents, then they would threaten their own ability to use the courts to quash competitors, should they win their own patents.
What patents are Molnar and Red Hat applying for? Why, patents on parts of Linux itself. See applications 20020059330 and 20020091868 at http://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html

Trolltech is also going to go public someday (see the interview with Eirik Eng on kdenews.urg). Once that happens, you can forget about goodwill.

What, be like the UK and throw people in prison for not using the government-dictated measures?
No, thanks.

Whether it works or not depends on your ISP server's settings. Which is why I said "Some ISPs" in the first place.
You check.. AOL's users can't. Their mail just gets dropped on the floor.
That's the problem here.
Reply-To fails when you run into a mailing list that overwrites Reply-To.
See... once you get people (like Verizon or the mailing lists) that starts fiddling with the RFCs, things break.
Everyone will remember... until you have to change ISPs, then everyone will remember a mail address that doesn't work anymore.
DNS is capable of handling dynamic IPs. You just need a fixed DNS server somewhere (and multiple dynamic DNS services do exist) and a low TTL.
Bzzzzzt. You lose. Some ISPs will reject mail from their customers based on the From field.

Sorry, but Ben and Jerry got bought out. That brand is owned by just another big company.
It also chooses which to display randomly when the game starts.
Call it ToME. Everyone who plays or develops it does. Well, you could get away with calling it pernangband. People will know what you mean.

What do you think just got wrapped up in court? Sun and AOL/Netscape whined to the DOJ, and all three ganged up on Microsoft.
I'm pretty sure even the Business Software Alliance (BSA) endorsed the DOJ's side of that case, and MS is a member of that group!
Microsoft people have claimed in sworn testimony that it's impossible to remove IE from the OS, though.
Some people don't believe them, but there you have it.
Don't forget.. that's 10 years *beyond the life of the author*, not just 10 years from creation.
10 years is plenty.
In this case, the two *do* overlap. Ingo wrote some code. He can
A) copyright the code.
B) patent the design of the code
C) all of the above
D) release the code to the public domain
Red Hat has chosen C, when they could have chosen A or D.

Ah, that makes much more sense. :-)
