  1. XFree86 and Adoption on Feature:On the Subject of RMS · · Score: 1
    Yes, exactly! You can't have one set of rules for naming those packages that have been "blessed" by the FSF as being part of GNU (and thus aren't named individually but are assimilated into the collective), and another set of rules for systems that include GNU software. It's the GPL "software motel"* mentality for name spaces now. Sigh. Maybe we should rename GNU to borGNU. :-)

    [* software can check in, but it can't check out]

  2. As Willow' would say, "Yawn, bored now" on A Waterproof Rollable Keyboard · · Score: 2

    This is the same thing that was in the Fetish section of this month's WiReD [7.04, p.58], and they at least list the price (£69.95, US$117) At least this isn't another reference to the car MP3 player that we see every month or so :-)
