A somewhat similar solution is to virtualize your laptop/phone. The kernel you boot with on either is nothing but a placeholder to run the virtualization software. Create an encrypted image on local storage that you can upload to a cloud provider and, on it, install all of your apps and operate the phone as usual. Securely wipe the encrypted image before leaving the country and download again after arriving in the host country. Our phones are now powerful enough to do this. Technology for Android has already been developed to do this: http://systems.cs.columbia.edu....
According to their video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?..., one of the uses is to detect the sweetness of certain fruits. The video shows them scanning an apple to determine the level of sugar. This would be useful if you are in the grocery store and want to pick the sweetest from among apples, peaches, etc. Do you think their tool is sufficient for this purpose? What about fruits with skins you do not eat like watermelon? Or, what about fruits like pomegranates? If their tool would not be sufficient, is there a handheld spectrometer that could be used?
Anyone have the mailing address of the President's Critical Infrastructure Protection Board (PCIPB)? Their home page is http://www.whitehouse.gov/pcipb/ but there's no address and the email address for feedback, feedback@who.eop.gov, doesn't work.
What do you need in AppWatch that Freshmeat didn't provide?
The changelogs provided on AppWatch are far more informative than those on Freshmeat. That it also limits itself to Open Source is very beneficial. And, on Freshmeat, you click on the home page and get to it through a redirect from the freshmeat site. Ditto for downloads. Very, very frustrating when you want to copy the link from your browser and use lftp or curl to do the download. AppWatch was simple, informative, and timely.
I don't think she did a good job. It was obvious she did not understand the material. She did *not* know who VA Linux was. How hard would that be to figure out? And, she didn't even know what IBM and HP were doing with Linux. She didn't even think Linux was copyrighted.

What is the pricing structure for AS? Is per-seat licensing involved? Can you buy 1 copy of AS and deploy it across multiple machines?

How about www.netledger.com?
As of libtool 1.4.1, linking on AIX with LDFLAGS="-Wl,-brtl" works fine. The -brtl flag causes the AIX linker to look in *.a and *.so files.
