Does anybody know a good (non-streaming) open video format (that allows for integrated audio and closed captioning perhaps), preferably well-documented?
Do you want a file format, a codec, or both? QuickTime is a flexible, well-documented file format. H.263 and the various flavors of MPEG are well-documented codecs (of course, you still have the patent problems).
No, you are wrong. Under X I can easily run an app (a complete application, like Netscape Communicator) one one machine and display its entire GUI on another machine anywhere in the world. I do this all the time when I'm sitting at a Sun but I need to run a Linux app.
I don't see any reason you couldn't write code morphing software for MAJC (or IA-64 or whatever), although it might be tricky because of the exception ordering issues mentioned in Transmeta's white paper.
Some other schedulers don't do any kind of O(N) "goodness" calculation over all the runnable threads. Simple real-time schedulers (which admittedly have other deficiencies) just choose the thread on the front of the highest non-empty run queue. Other schedulers use stochastic (i.e. partly random) methods to pick the next thread without having to look at all the runnable threads.

Will Price from Network Associates (the owners of PGP) has posted to n.p.m.crypto several times offering to integrate PGP into the lizard; maybe now it will happen sooner rather than later.

Why would they write a separate filesystem for BeIA that has exactly the same features as BFS? Of course it uses BFS...
You should be able to generate live QuickTime streams using the Java Media Framework.

Why can't you port the JDK yourself (like Blackdown did)? Why do you expect Sun to do so much work for free?
Think about it: I can write a page that links to one of your pages, and then you can just move it. There's nothing I can do to stop you.
The only way that I can think of to enable distributed referntial integrity is to have a totally closed system.

The PowerPC architecture was designed primarily by IBM and Motorola and the specs have been publicly available for years.

That reminds me of jwz; I think his title used to be "mozilla.org loose cannon".
And Mitchell Baker's not a guy IIRC, but you'd be forgiven for not knowing that.
