Here are more details. I have a file called norobots.txt in the server htdocs root, with the following content:

The files I have found from that search are in a subdirectory of the root. I tried to do an even more refined search in google and there was no trace of those pages
Politically it would be even harder NOT to come back after a full vote count would have declared you a winner. The speech would look like "when I conceded, it was very unlikely that I would win. I thought america would have been better off with an early concession. But it happened. I won. Let's follow the will of the voters."
that's not hard work, right, and assuming there is enough competition, $20 is the cost of that work. The implicit assumption is that the government would spend more.
The idea is that with enough competition the government would be inefficient at creating a private good such as tax software. The $20 you pay to TurboTax is less than you would have to pay in taxes to fund the government programmers.
Their contracts look very much like insurance, as stated by many in their responses, however what I don't get is this: insurance companies can profit (and their customers benefit) whenever the probability of the negative events happening is not correlated across customers. I get injured, the insurance refunds me with the premia paid by all.
However, in the linux/sco case, if sco wins, ALL companies using linux will sooner or later have to pay. How can insurance work in this environment?
Let's focus on (2) since the discussion is about this. Technically you're right. However, even if the company never pays a dividend, at the end of time it will have to be liquidated. At that time you will cash in your share. It's this expectation that makes prices of shares go up even when they never pay dividends. And it doesn't matter if that time is 1000 years away: your children or the children of your children (of the people who bought your stocks) will get that cash.
What I am saying is that dividend policy has more to do with provision with the tax code than with things you say. In the long run, if dividend aren't payed the company's profits do not disappear in cyberspace: they are reinvested in the company, making its value go up.
It's the most moronic point instead. Not paying dividends is actually a good way to avoid double taxing the shareholders. "Not planning to pay profits" does not mean "not planning to be profitable". When a company is profitable and does not pay dividends, the profits are reinvested in the company itself, its value goes up and sooner or later the market realizes this and the value of the share will go up to reflect that. This is the way things work.

The thing agout sf is that their bug tracker is ugly and sitll don't support subversion; not sure what's wrong with bugzilla, I find it quite fast and user friendly. Compared to sourceforges' bug thingy at least
Yes after I wrote the comment I thought it might have been because of absolute positioning. Css positioning is so frustrating... makes me pine for the good old nested 's

ok thanks, my guess is that I copied instructions from some random web page...

I have found one case where they are not honoring robots.txt. Ok it's a preview, but it's bothersome nonetheless.
Sorry, I am not posting the link, you just have to trust me or test some other site.

definitely go for subversion. If you look for a guide on how to set up svnserve+ssh on win xp do a google search of svnserve ssh on xp
