SCO expects to be compensated for supposed 1% of the kernel code.
It looks like SCO is inciting people to violate the GPL, and willfully violating the GPL themselves.
This invalidates the GPL licence and means that SCO is violating the copyright of 99% of the kernel code, along with extorting others to do the same.
Because of this, SCO needs to pay damages to the Linux source code that it is pirating ( and encouraging to pirate).
If SCO beleives that it is due 1 * x, where x is some compensation for its supposed source code, then SCO now owes 99 * x to the other linux developers.
You mean subtle, like holding a Duracell(tm) battery to explain an energy cell to the audience? Or subtle like Oracle(tm) pointing the audience to a chicken/egg circumstance that will "bake our noodle"?
The black bars somewhat the fault of the dvd format.
The dvd format should have allowed the definition of a center point of a sequence of frames. Then all movies could be made widescreen with center references, and those movies could be watched on letter box or fullscreen, without having two separate movies on the disc. In fact, assuming the center point is 2d, a native full-screen movie could also be presented on a full wide screen in a fairly accurate fasion.( center line point moves up so I am looking at the talking guys face instead of his shirt.)
Say you write some software now to broadcast or distribute movies as soon as they expire. Then you start this program , forget about it, and leave it running for 20 years. The program is written according to the law. Say that in the future, Disney bought more congress people and judges, and the law is again changed. Are you breaking the law in the future, even though the program followed the letter of the law when written and started?
Did anyone know where to see the status of Thunderbird. Once thunderbird is released, then I can hopefully replace kmail in linux and also have an option of reading mail in Windows.
Type in mailto:something and you get the following messages. It looks like it reads mime.types. Anyone know what it is looking for? Can I specify my mail program?
>But in the GUI world, there isn't any piping metaphor because output is nonstandard. Because of this you also can't `` it. So there's no real way to pull little applications
together in an easy fashion.
Nothing really prevents you from using pipes in a GUI application. Maybe shared memory is a better fit.
But in the case of Mozilla, The browser does not need to communicate with the mail reader or anything else.
The obvious solution is to have the independent applications be independent executables.
Netcape and Mozilla was blind to the obvious, causing such things as galeon to form.
This has been my main complaint from Netscape 0.9 to mozilla/Netscape 7.
There is a patch to allow one to specifiy another mail reader. And another patch to only compile the mailnews application. But this is a real pain to do such a thing.
There should be at least 4 code trees ( and 4 separate releases). Mozilla GUI libs, Mozilla core libs, Mozilla browser, and mozilla mail/news. Splitting the released libraries up even more would better, as it promotes better separation, sharing and competition (open source).
The "new" Unix way is to have many shared libraries used by many executables. You install the Mozilla core libraries, then Galeon on top of that. Then install the Mozilla GUI libs, then install the separate Browser and Mail executables on top of the GUI and core libs.
The UNIX model is to have small managable programs that work together form a larger system.
The EMACS model (which Mozilla follows) is to assume that one should never leave this wondrous application. Therefore, this application should do everything.
Of course the GPL license does specify many restrictions, so it is obviously not completly free.
GNU software is not Unrestricted Software. The word "Free" is used because of its vague and political meaning.
"Open" is vague also, but often is used to imply public availability.
Think "open house" vs "free house" Think "open door policy" vs "free door policy"
The "free as in speech" slogan is political and not accurate. If someone uses "free speech" to publish/present controversial matter, the general public has no automatic right to re-publish the work. So if code was free as in speech, I would assume that they were free to write and publish such things as crypto without threat of punishment from the government. I would not assume that others could automattically copy and re-publish the work.
In the Star Wars (Wizard of Oz in Space), young Luke Dorothy is caught in a struggle against witches in the Empire. Also on this journey is the c3p0 tin man (and his small tin counterpart), the lion without a heart as spit into Harrison Ford and a giant hairy action figure, and various other persons who are probably Lukes relatives back in Kansas. Luke fights against evil in the form of Storm trooper flying monkeys in space, using swords and lasers. In the ending, the witch dies, and the man behind the voice is revealed. At this point, Luke recognizes his father as the main bad charactor, the presumably wakes from the dream finding himself
in Kansas, finding that his uncle is not dead after all.
Unfortunatly, the Lucas version of Space Oz has led to a trilogy, a pre trilogy, and countless stupid childrens charactors like the ewoks singing to follow the yellow brick road.

This is a fancy PC desktop case.
This is NOT a typical size for home entertainment devices. If you "giant" Pioneer reciever "just fits". This is a couple inches bigger.
This box is still missing digital connections.

why didn't they publish the scripts? or did i miss something?

You care about the picture and you still buy Video Tapes?
Perhaps you should buy your sister a $50 DVD player instead of purchasing movies on 8-track video tape.
I hav not seen a linux version of the Adobe plugin. Linux isn't mentioned in that link. Or am I missing something.
Reasons for success of a company:
1. good/unique product
2. consistent product
3. well adverstized product.
4. addictive product
5. monopoly on product
Starbucks is 2,3,4
Coke/Pepsi is 2,3,4
McD's is 2,3
Microsoft is 3,5

In this case at the very least, you should call
such a system Apache/BSD/GNU/Linux, not just GNU/Linux. for obvious reasons.
I bought one from esbuy.
Sony's (+RW) drive is this drive rebranded.
the Minus RW format is bad. The writers are slower, and it doesn't write in a variable bit rate format that a DVD Video player can read.
Except emacs is an editor that wants to be an OS.
The UNIX model is to have small managable programs that work together form a larger system.
The EMACS model (which Mozilla follows) is to assume that one should never leave this wondrous application. Therefore, this application should do everything.
The case is big enough to put in 2 bays.
I have not owned a floppy drive or floppy in years. But I do have several DVD/CDRW/DVD+RW drives.
Please, all that I really need is a VCR sized case with two 5.25 bays.
Does the taco use IE, or have we given up and now assume that ? also can serve as a universal replacement for every puctuation?
As I said before ?I don?t like this?
Restraint/Restriction freedom ( libre ) - unrestricted, unrestrained
Cost freedom ( gratis ) - costless
Of course the GPL license does specify many restrictions, so it is obviously not completly free.

"Open" is vague also, but often is used to imply public availability.

Is RMS tired of dividing GNU by Linux?

And so did Jesus.
Both were immortalized after their deaths.
Only the legend of Saint Klass is commonly
viewed as a myth.
While the legend of Jesus is currently believe as truth by millions.
