Yep. Originally, the Pluto-Charon system was noticed, and no-one could tell it was in fact two bodies. It was christened "Pluto", the 9th planet. When technology had improved and we were able to get a better look at it, it was noted there were two bodies. The larger of these is now called Pluto, the smaller Charon.
Probably eventually it will be classified as a double planet system, if it is downgraded from planet status?
No, RedHat 6.1 is _not_ an unstable release!!! RedHat does not use the kernel version numbering system for it's distro. Some non-kernel space does use even/odd, but not all of it, and certainly no distros that I am aware of!
That just proves the certification model is broken. People should be hired for being able to find out stuff, not knowing stuff. (Although knowing stuff is good).
You demonstrate your ignorance. Apple's license is neither open source nor free, and the Mozilla license is definately free. RMS is not happy with the QPL, but concedes that it is free.
Stop trying to invent a division between opensource and free software : there is none, other than nomenclature.
Such things cannot happen with alarming regularity.
We get the odd mass shooting here, and that has decreased after we finally fixed our gun laws after Dunblane. Nowhere near compared to the continual slaughter in the united States, even after allowing the population.
We should try to lobby the Co-operartive Bank, to fix it's ethical policy so that it does not invest in immoral (proprietary) software companies, etc.:)

>I once saw an explanation for that in a book, >but it's a too little long to explain here. It's because Americans can't hold their drink. ;)
I'm sure that's interesting, but I can't understand it, your second sentence seems garbled. Can you rephrase, please?
There are good arguments not to, so in balance I prefer to allow your pathetic nation to live.

Yeah, probably in March. Funny that.

Open source (as defined by the Open Source Definition) and Free Software (as defined by RMS) are synonymous. Deal with it.

Why are some people so desperate to justify allowing murder to happen more often?
If you just banned guns, it would be easier to enforce than the current situation.
No! Don't. That would just annoy non-US residents again.
They can't. Only a small fraction of Red Hat stock was sold in the IPO.
So is that why one of the big new hyped features in QT and KDE is theming?
Our stable web browser will be called 'mozilla'. It's not ready yet, but it's chugging along fine.

Here is a guide for you, as seen from a continent where political parties often have significant differences between them.
Republicans : extreme far right wing
Democrats : far right wing
Agh. I mean
The real thing to do is just to use If this displays properly in your browser, congratulations. :)
Even RMS has agreed that the QPL used for licensing QT2.0 and onwards, is a "free" one. It's annoying, yes, but accaptable.
!= is not a C-ism : it's just looks rathar a lot like 'does not equal' sign, which the C operator happens to make use of as well.
Pepsi shouldn't have offered the plane then.
XFree requires practically nothing. They don't have to comply with the X standard : they just choose to do so.
Are you on crack or something? Last time I checked, Mozilla was under an opensource licence.
