I have to wonder how stupid people if they can't read a name
you skipped a word
Grade:F-
Go away. You're too stupid to post on a public forum.
What? You say there's no IQ test to post on Slashdot? Guess what? There isn't one to vote either.
If voting irregularities like this go uninvestigated, then an entirely new wave of political slight-of-hand will come about. Forget drawing the district lines. Laying out the ballot will be where the real power is.
How many times have I told you not to take things out of the toilet? The floaters are not playthings.
I find it suspicious that this poster has seemingly perfect recall for numbers, but has forgotten or omitted the source for those numbers.

"The training he had received to acquire his MIS degree nearly 15 years ago gave him a basic background in program architecture and several programming languages, all of which were no longer in use, except for UNIX, and that had evolved significantly in the interim."
I wrote a very understanding email to Compaq in May about this. I also sent a copy of the email to gnu@gnu.org. To my knowledge, neither of these parties have done much about it. FSF basically told me "yup, they're wrong. ", then basically told me to pursue it. I don't have the time or the inclination to take on Compaq. So there it sits.
Let me say this: The only way this is NOT a violation of the GPL is if they wrote ALL the code in the package, then they can release it under as many licenses as they want. I do not, however think this is the case. I remember looking through one of the source files and seeing that it was a copy-paste of a GPLed file from another author.
What will you do when pressure is exerted on your landlubber ISP to shutdown your connection? Move to another ISP? What happens when no one else will give you bandwidth? A renegade server farm doesn't do any good if no router will accept its traffic.
Don't say it can't/won't happen. Unfortunately, it can and probably will.
How much did napster hurt you? Your latest album went to no.2 on the billboard charts and has been in the top 100 for nearly 6 months. Do you really think this lawsuit can possibly help you? Even if you win, you lose -- you lose the trust and respect of your fans. Have you forgotten that each of those 335,435 napster users just wanted to hear your music?
That version of lilo was available April 13. I downloaded it a week ago and have had it triple-booting my 20GB disk for several days now. Jeez, this news story is sooo last week.
I blindly (illiterately) followed some links and found what seem to be some screen shots of zxlinux. It appears to be running kernel 2.3.23 and possibly X (or may be just the zxlinux interface. )

Mandrake goes to 7.1 ... That's 0.1 louder isn't it?

I don't think so. (The final answer would have to come from a judge)
Your wrapper library would still be a deriviative work of GPL code. You cannot "cast away" the GPL so easily.

Precision Insight has expressed its intent to release source. I think we should give them a chance to make good on their promise.
