Cookie are small files written on one's computer that allows them to be "recognized" whenever they get back to the site that provoked their creation. If a client machine is suitably protected/firewalled then I don't know how the guy on the server side could allow some "collection of data from citizens". Especially if the collection that he will actually owe will just consists of references to external Cookies locations. It is also really useful not to have to log on each time I read Slashdot... And, once again, because of a Cookie. So, the public should stop attacking these tools to focus on the way to abuse these. --
Many JobServe addicts might have been hunted by Microsoft HR forces during the last summer. I remember being interviewed in june 1999 in a luxurious Hotel in Paris and this was about developping this product.
If we consider the lack of Green Cards that prevented them to actually get their newest recruits before October, then we could be sure that the product might not even be in a suitable alpha stage.
In the meantime, I can just telnet any server in the world, export its DISPLAY to my machine and just have the same thing done.
Finally, Bill Gates abandonned his place to Steve Balmer during the Winter and was then supposed to lead this product.
If I correctly understood your story, it just seems that because of some rule, open-sources will never get the sticker with the Trusted System trademark.
I believe this is kind of a restrictive approach even though there might be some good points about it.
By definition, you trust wh[o|at]oever you know.
If you get experienced enough with your server you should not look for such distinction but for ways to make it even more performant.
After all, this sounds like some new kind of benchmark and we all now that satisfaction is not necessarly a matter of figures. --
As said in the subject, this also involves the program loaded in your boot sequence. I have used many OSses in my life and here are some of them, ordered by boot time :
I have an Acorn RiscPC at home. I used to install RiscBSD (an ARM-aimed netBSD port) ont it. It rocked. Concerning the apps, I used old source CDs most of which usually compiled fine : mSQL, xChomp, etc. So, I think you can go, try to compile, eventually adapt some statements and you'll be successfull more than often. Good luck.

Well, they have to be educative to each other.
RThey have to support the newbies and to protect them from eventual abuses...
Like in real life.
Eachof them should be an example for one another.

- Palm OS (not x86)
- Psion Epoc (not x86)
- Acorn RiscOS (not x86)
- MS-DOS
- QNX
- BeOS 4
- AtheOS
- standalone Linux (with a few services up and without starting X)
- Windows 9x
- Windows NT
- NeXTstep (x86)
IMHO having GCC or not should not make the boot longer.Concerning your need (C++ and GUI) I'd suggest BeOS or AtheOS. The problem with the latter being the lack of community. Tschüss!
