Not necessarily. It's possible for developers to use Windows CE as the OS for their games, but it's not forced. It makes it easy to port Windows games, but from what I've heard very few Dreamcast developers have chosen to use Windows CE.
Aparrently it's worth the effort to write your own OS.
Natural Language Processing is only a small part of what makes us 'intelligent'. Who is to say that the most intelligent beings in the universe even speak to each other? If they know what they have to do, why communicate?
Anyway, the point I'm getting at is... the Turing Test, and other such tests (such as this IRC Bot thing) are not correct measures of intelligence. Far from it. The bots are always just clever hacks that manage to sometimes respond correctly to our feeble communcation medium. Not because they are intelligent, but because they have hard-coded replies set out for them.
That aside, it's just a competition... I just wish they wouldn't use the phrase "AI" when refering to it.

I think an astroid on a course for the earth is the universe's way of sending a SIGTERM to us humans.
when you gotta go... you gotta go.
What do you mean by "owns the deafult standard?"
The ESRI shapefile technical description is available here.
That should tell you everything you need...
Actually, the libraries for the ArcSDE (Spatial Database Engine) C API are available for RedHat. The client libraries also.
ArcSDE sits on top of an RDBMS and adds spatial datatypes (and rules... unlike Oracle Spatial) to your data.
But I agree, it would be nice to get more.
