Do you have an example of these "import-taxes"? There is no such thing as import tax between EU countries. And most software for the EU market is "manufactured" in the EU (i.e. localized and packaged there).
Bad idea. You have zero protection against failure. If one of the disks on the volume dies, the whole volume is gone. You could use RAID & LVM together if you wanted to give you both protection and volume expansion. Just buy your disks 2 at a time:) I find raid 1 alone adequate though.
For the normal Oracle stuff, I'm sure there's 101 books out there that you could find useful depending on what angle you want to approach it from. Check out the documentation on the oracle site - also might be worth getting a login for Oracle's OTN and checkout the forums.
Was that supposed to be a humorous post or just an ill-informed one? People that go to the US and work, whether they stay or not, are helping provide the benefits. They pay some of those tax dollars people always talk about!
Because the full name of the dept. he heads is the Dept. of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government - the whole voting thing falls under the "Local Government" part of the dept - see http://www.environ.ie/doei/doeihome.nsf?Open

This is just plain wrong. Whether an IP address is publicly accessible or not is a function of the global routing tables and your firewall(s). The real issue is that people need to have globally UNIQUE addresses for many reasons. IP Addresses need not be public but they should be unique.
Why is this moderated to +5 Interesting? If you read the docs and follow the mailing list you will see that what they are doing is experimenting with manditory access control and the only reason they picked linux was because the source is available and there are a lot of people using it. The project does not aim to create a secure distro - only experiment with a single feature that could lead to more secure distros in the future (and probably not just linux distros)
This should be moderated upwards. MOre detail? Its called Service Location Protocol and as far as I know there is an implementation for linux. I don't have the URL to hand - just do a search for it. I think it is linked of the SLP working group homepage on IETF (www.ietf.org).
"So what constitutes fair use of a DVD in your eyes -- besides simply buying a DVD and using one of the MPAA's authorized players?
Any use by which you buy it at a price. "
I guess that's what most of us want: go out and buy our DVD's to watch on whatever player we find convenient....
Questions such as "How do you suggest that we play the DVD's we've paid good money for using alternative systems such as Linux, *BSD and Solaris?"
This is the main issue I think - he does not seem to understand that the MPAA is hindering legitimate use of the DVDs that have been paid for. He uses the example of trying to get into a cinema. He gives two scenarios - first, I buy a ticket and enter, second I sneek in.
I would say that the current situation is more like I buy a ticket and then I might get in - but whether I get in is based on race, skin color, OS preference or some other criteria.
There is already some support for QoS under Linux. I'm not sure how far advanced it is because I haven't lokked at it in a while. There are a number of queuing options in the kernel but I'm not sure what tools and APIs there are to support this in userland. Also, there was a version of rsvp around in 1997 but rsvp seems to have fallen to the wayside.
H323 and all associated standards are ITU standards. To get a copy, you must pay for them. This is quite expensive for most open source programmers. For the full implementation of H323 you also need H225, H245, H263, T120 and a few other specifications, each costing quite a bit. SIP is the IETF alternative.
