I know the author of Crystal Space had that long e-mail exchange with Richard Stallman not to long ago (posted to/.) about porting to PS2, but does he have any plans for porting Crystal Space to Indrema (or DV Linux, or whatever they wanna call it)?
I deffinitly think that that'd be an easy way to get a decent foundation for game creation on the console; and that's whats gonna decide whether or not this thing lives or dies... Good games.
Also as a side note. Anyone else think Indrema needs to clean up there site? For example, little things like that indrema vs xbox vs ps2 chart; WHAT DO THE "*"s refer to??? Also that "Top 10 reasons not to buy ps2 and wait for indrema" that has to be the most unprofessional absurd list I've ever seen... Thats why I think Indrema is gonna fail: naievity. I want them to succede, but i just don't think it's gonna happen.
There is no way to "sneak" into the game console market. Targeting "Power Gamers" is the easiest way to put out a product have very little positive response, have your FEW big name game developers jump ship, then be left with a cool box that does nothing because no large companies want to write for it. Only smaller ones. Apogee, and Epic (what happend to them)? Blizzard and Id?
Well thats my thought stream... redirect it where you like.
"I do not go believe comes out therefrom that I will concentrate on always more special zones."
Are ANY of the mirrors going to be accessable, or updated? What's the purpose or mirrors if they don't work? Also if mirrors DONT work, how about updading the www.kde.org/mirror.html page? Sept 15? common you just released version 2!!!

In never made any sense to me why aol would even bother with winamp, until I read this from
an older article on Salon .
Our platform talks to players that are written by partner companies like RealNetworks through Universal Music Group and now Winamp through America Online, which serves up music to consumers.
All of this SDMI is useless is no software mp3 players support it. So AOL (now AOL/Time Warner) owns the most popular method chosen to listen to mp3's so they can put in whatever they want. If the music industry (Universal Music Group, and TW) didn't have control of the software this SDMI would be useless.
But don't they see that anyone can write an MP3 Player???
This sounds like nothing more than someone just trying to trick hackers into doing SDMI's testing by calling them "chicken"... That hasn't worked since I was 10...
I don't get it... why is the above post offtopic? I think it's a valid point. Open source development obviously isn't centered by one single entity keeping track of hours logged on a project (as other development options can be). When deciding to divide up the "money" later on, how it is determined how is most valuable. The one who contributed the most lines of code, or the one who solved the HUGE problem that saved the project... Or is it possibly the one that contributed most often. As always when money becomes involved small details like that become a LOT more important. Money has been known to break (not just make)projects.
Please tell me that you were kidding, and that no moderators noticed, because if you're serious you've been reading WAY WAY WAY too much slashdot, and need to get some sunshine...
(although I personally think it was ESCHELON related... Deffinitly looks like a govt conspiracy):)
Would it be too much to put the 300 links in at least 2 different "stories" so that some sort of organized discussion can follow... also now I know nothing about a whole lot of things, and am reading random comments about gibberish... thanks
Gun Owners that use their guns to commit crimes are arrested. Maybe the wording of the charges isn't the same, but its the same basic principle. If you have dynamite and blow up a safe with it, you will be introuble for having it. However if you use it legitimately there is no problem.
Slashdot Mirror
No see what you've done! /. traffic. :)
You've slashdotted abcnews.com!
You should've known that such a small site like abcnews can't handle all this
Seriously tho', can anyone paste the text of the abc site?

Nice try, but try again

But how do they keep things fair? by # of submissions? or by content? no 1st
