  4. impressed on Desktop Apps Ripe Turf for Open Source · · Score: 1

    I didn't use openoffice for about 1.5 years and always had in mind that it had problems with many MS Office files.
    Now I used it again some weeks ago and I am really impressed. It worked with every file I tried and it is much faster and much more stable. Even complex powerpoint files and word documents with recorded changes work without any problems.
    This enables me to only use linux at work where many office files are used.

  9. can't believe their numbers on The Next Step in Fighting Spam: Greylisting · · Score: 5, Informative

    most spam today is sent through open relays. Those relays will simply retry the delivery no matter which software the spammer uses, so the method won't work.

  10. Re:Ant on Why Switch a Big Software Project to autoconf? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Ant is a build tool for java. autoconf is a tool that generates the makefiles for mainly C projects. You can't compare both.
