  1. ArsDigita's take on Zope on Philip Greenspun Answers · · Score: 4
    This is an internal ArsDigita analysis (in Excel format; why?) of Zope. Obviously ArsDigita sees Zope a competitor if it comes with suggestions on how to handle it.

    The document is actually very good and covers many of the advantages of Zope over the infrastructure that ACS is built on (AOLserver, Tcl, Oracle, ACS utilities). There's a "killer app alert" for Squishdot.

    Weirdly, it doesn't seem to touch on Philip's arguments regarding the need for concurrency and insanely high performance.

    Take a look at ArsDigita File Storage. They spend a lot of time analyzing their competitors!

  2. Depends on how the patch was created on Does A Software License Cover Patches? · · Score: 1

    This all depends on under what circumstances the patch was created. For example, the GPL states that all patches must also be under the GPL, while under a BSD license you can create patches that are licensed differently (though you have to enclose the original copyright statement if you distribute the entire program with patches).

  3. Re:Unfortunately... on Dosemu v1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Why not just run VMware and renice it to a very low nice?

  4. Re:... on Now It's Doctor Linus Torvalds · · Score: 1

    He has a CS MSc.

  5. Re:Code freeze --> new release? on Linux 2.4 Feature Freeze · · Score: 1

    I believe that in Debian, a code freeze means that only critical bugs will be removed.

  6. Cool - where do I get the money? on "The Word" from E*Trade About the RH IPO · · Score: 0

    That's really cool. Now I just need to get a lot of money! Maybe I could use what I earned purchasing M$ stock years ago... ;-)


    BTW, First Post!

    Hmmm...

    x86 x >= 3, ARM, Alpha, SPARC, M68k, PowerPC, MIPS, x86 x 3 (ELKS).

  8. Re:This should be a collaberative effort on Star Wars, in stunning ASCII-mation · · Score: 0

    AOL!

  9. PERL webserver? on Thought Recognition · · Score: 1

    Well, with mod_perl and stuff like FastCGI, it can get pretty fast. Something like a shell-script webserver with shell-script CGI would be slow.

    Actually, it is possible to write a webserver in bash, with netcat.
