well, actually there is a very basic rule in criminal law: you are to be presumed innocent, until proved guilty beyond all reasonable doubt. what we are looking at are failures to apply this very rule.
What's more, they don't seem to provide the stable version for amd64 either. While they do have builds for dead platforms, such as OS/2 and Be-OS... go figure.
We (meaning the post-industrialized nations) have seen a shift that requires everyone to be educated enough to learn whatever trade is needed at a given time.
Yeah. Makes me wonder where the heck is that sort of education
going to come from. Have you been in a school
recently? Not one in the top 1%, an average sort
of one? We're probably about half a world apart
geographically, but I have reasons to believe this
is an issue over at where you live, too.

Konqueror is really great, except for a few annoying Javascript bugs that seem to break sites that employ JS for navigation... including a webmail site I use. Other than that, I haven't needed any other browser for some time now.
You might like to check out this page. One of the things they have is an interpreter (X-Tract) that reads a template (written in XML!) and performs pretty much arbitrary transformations on XML input data based on this template. Looks pretty cool and simple to use. X-Tract is free for download. Funny I didn't find any info on license terms though.
I tried doing some very simple stuff with the Linux version, and the only complaints I have are:
fetching the input data via HTTP doesn't seem to work (as it should according to the docs)
when I tried calling it from a CGI it freaked out, seems that env variables override explicit XML Script commands in the template -- not what one would expect. Fixed it by clearing the environment
the docs, though pretty exhaustive, are not very reader-friendly (to me)

Pull your head out of your ass man, Europeans and Soviets monger far more weapons to 3rd world countries than the U.S. And don't get me started on the French.... sheesh. Read a book, Read Jane's... read something!
On the scale of things, the human brain is Mount Everest and these predictions are just folks at a rest stop on the Jersey pike staring though a fogged window in the mens rooms at a torn post card from Tibet (that they are sure is the real thing).
Just another set of predictions about something that isn't nearly understood. Just like every other prediction of related "artificial intelligence", the mountain will suddenly appear bigger the closer we get to it.
VMS is dying of natural causes. Compaq would be foolish to open source it however as there are still some valuable gems in it that need to be leveraged onto other platforms.
Like it or not, VMS clusters in 1984 were way ahead of any Unix clusters of today (a full 15 years later).
Don't get me wrong, I love Linux. In fact, Compaq's recent announcements to increase their support for Linux makes me want to buy stock. This is a good thing.
It is also a good thing that Compaq announced that they are actively integrated some of the VMS cluster technology into their Unix offering (and not just the NT world). This is good for Unix too.
Not exactly true. Look here.

Alas, no linux-amd64 version seems to be available for now, so I won't be trying it out anytime soon.
The earliest entries in the changelog are from '91.

Still, Pike rocks. "OOP for the rest of us", you might say ;-)
PS. Anyone know what happened to ddns.org?
Don't know why this comment got mangled the first time, it did look right in the preview...
Otherwise, nice work -- keep going!

Those are some great links, thanks for sharing them.
For your historical pleasure, here is an advertisement for Unix from a 1981 issue of Datamation:
