Inside Sun we have used the TeamWare DSCM for many many years, and it has allowed us to co-ordinate distributed development between teams, both remotely and locally. The Mercurial DSCM will make this work even better, and allow anyone to join in, at the appropriate level and area.
Either the reporter doesn't get it, or it's FUD. Wikipedia lists two open source versions: OpenSCADA and FreeSCADA, but mentions that the original versions (presumably "decades-old") were on Unix or VMS and proprietary; hardly open source. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCADA)
The "Astounding" post above says "They run Windows-based control software". That *is* astounding, and should be considered criminally negligent.
South Korea bumbled its way into the Asian space race Tuesday...It seems that the KSLV-1 first stage, developed by the experienced Russians, worked perfectly. However, the rocket's Korean-made second stage, which was supposed to carry and push the satellite into its place, apparently had some issues.
In a video session disclosed only to a limited number of reporters Wednesday, the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), the country's space agency, revealed footage taken from two built-in cameras planted on the KSLV-1 second stage...The second-stage tumbled back to Earth, and the satellite soon followed, as the remaining fairing was heavy enough to prevent the rocket from achieving desired speed and pushing the satellite to a speed faster than 8 kilometers per second that was required for the spacecraft to remain in orbit,'' Park Jeong-joo, who heads KARI's KSLV systems unit, said.
Global temperatures peaked in 1998 and are now declining according to this ews story about the NASA satellites that have been measuring such things since the 1970s: http://www.mcclatchydc.com/226/story/74019.html
According to data from the National Space Science and Technology Center in Huntsville, Ala., the global high temperature in 1998 was 0.76 degrees Celsius (1.37 degrees Fahrenheit) above the average for the previous 20 years.
So far this year, the high has been 0.42 degrees Celsius (0.76 degrees Fahrenheit), above the 20-year average, clearly cooler than before.
It's enlightening to see that when environmental groups, and especially Al Bore (see for instance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Investment_Management about his carbon trading hedge fund, so that's why he's pushing it in congress), pops up in the news these days, it has to do with money. Of course, they claim that some of the money will go to "save the world". Right.
Theres not much glorious in SysAdmin job actually. Most sysadmins are underpaid, underrespected and rarely loved, but still our love for the technology (or sufficient amounts of single malt after hours) keeps us doing our thing and keeping the industry running.
There is something unusual about the climate today.
Yes, it's cold and getting colder, and has been since the Isthmus of Panama formed and cut off the flow of water between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.
There are OSes such as you are asking for. MS is just not one of them.
If I pay for a machine, and I pay for the software. then I don't want it changing the options. I want to set what will happen. And I want it to work efficiently, without useless overhead put in simply to increase bragging rights of the vendor.
Would you look at that? I tell someone who said something stupid, and his since been modded flamebait, that s/he's a boob. And look, now I'm modded troll.
Here's one with the people with mod points today: "You Boobs".
The replies are all legitimate concerns, but they are still only details that you have to work out, until the time that your child knows more about computers than you do. It is still the real solution.
If I understand you correctly, you are pointing out that every car has an odometer, therefore using GPS to measure milage (kilometerage for those of you outside the U.S.) is
Ridiculous overkill
Likely attractive to a government as a means to keep track of citizens

OpenSolaris is using Mercurial, as is Java 7.

That should be modded "poetic", or something.

Thanks a lot for the insight, fuckwad.

Sorry, bud. You've been censored by the inquisition of the church of global warming.
Your comment is actually insightful or informative, or something, but politically incorrect.
Very good.
