  1. Re:One user's experience on GNOME Foundation, UI And Linux · · Score: 1
    I need a better browser and a much better e-mail client.
    For email, scheduling, and contacts lists, Englightenment is very very nice. It took me 2 hours or so to download and compile the packages it uses the other night, but it hasn't crashed on me once, even in this early stage. Enlightenment will destroy any lack of groupware clients Linux has.

    ...500K picture on it, not very modem friendly

    Of course, if you have 10 billion gigs of disk space, you probably don't spend a whole lot of time on a modem.

  3. Re:GTK port? on Star Office 6.0 Source Code GPL! · · Score: 1

    Don't be too sure there won't be a GTK port of StarOffice - Sun's developers seem to be planning to work with Helix code:

  4. Because there are so many other solutions... on Why Don't We Hear More About GNU Server Pages (GSP)? · · Score: 2

    I imagine the reason there is so little heard about GSP is because there are so many other solutions that are familiar and work well for people...and not just proprietary solutions, either. There are open source implementations of Java Server Pages, which appeals to the Java development community, not to mention PHP. Both of these are tried and tested by tons of sites. BTW, if you're looking for an application server that's open source, check out Enhydra, an OSS Java/XML server that can run standalone or as a servlet.
