...and I found it for Mozilla by accident when I tried to do it for Gaim--Gaim is GTK2, and uses.gtkrc-2.0, Moz is GTK1, and uses.gtkrc. I merely put the Gaim stuff in the wrong file, and got Emacs keybindings for Mozilla.
Apples and apples--Mozilla uses the same algorithm as POPFile, and if you really wanted you could use Mozilla's junk mail controls to sort email into two categories instead of just sorting out the junk.
In the US, or at least where I live, several "concerned citizens" would have called in and reported this truck. But in a snowstorm in the US, you'll probably see several trucks over a span of 150 miles.
Yea--I would have to say they might get $300/hr when it's Christmas morning (thus, holiday pay), and they've already worked enough time that week to get to triple+ overtime.
I worked for a county highway department over the summer and found that when snowdrifts get real bad, they have a couple 10-foot hight, 13-foot wide snowplows that is put on the pieces of heavy equipment that are allowed on the roads. But normally dump trucks can handle it fine.
1. GPL has never been involved in a court case, so some buisnesses see it as unproven
IBM is not "some businesses" nor would IBM waste it's legal resources looking into matters that concern "some businesses".
But IBM would certainly use legal resources looking into matters that concren "some business" when IBM is a member of "some businesses".
2. What happens to the next piddling little company running out of money that may have something that they can BS into making it look like it's a big deal?
Huh? In no way could the countersuit set a precedent that "piddling little companies" should automatically lose to IBM. Each case of copyright infringement must be examined individually. Precedent plays no part.
The GPL hasn't been tested yet. IBM wants it to be, so that nobody can claim it's "unconstitutional" in the future, since it is in IBM's interests to protect the GPL.
3. Litigation is expensive, and SCO made IBM do most of the research already... does IBM's legal department want to look like they just wasted $$? In most businesses, that isn't a good thing for the department.
The amount of money already spent is completely irrelevant. IBM must weigh the remaining costs against the projected benefits of crushing SCO vs settling. Given that pursuing this in court will be very expensive (research is just one of many costs) and that crushing SCO doesn't benefit IBM any more than settling, I think the choice is easy. And the research money is certainly not "wasted" if it leads to SCO's law suit being dismissed.
I can't really speak for IBM on this, but neither can you or the poster that you replied to. They might consider the money wasted, and they might not.
5. If they win, given that IBM registers it's copyrights (please please tell me if I am wrong)
You are wrong.
Agreed. I guess it's possible for the court to award damages in the name of copyrights, or for SCO to go bankrupt and relinquish copyrights to IBM, but it is extremely doubtful.
I do believe a text installer is just as usable as a GUI one, but it may not be as intuitive to new users. Either way, we both say new users would prefer GUI installers like Anaconda. Now Slack's or FreeBSD's text installers are not something to recommend to any new user.
However, of the few people I recommend Linux to who actually want to try it, I install Libranet for them so they don't have a chance to be turned off by installation of the OS.
They seem to ignore the fact that only the stuff that your employees wrote is the only thing you really have a right to and that you don't need to release that.
Unless the employee edited code that was under the GPL. Then if binaries are released sources must be released.
If someone works with Linux he has to know about the GPL, simple as that.
How about, "If a company works with Linux it has to know about the GPL"? Programmers don't need to know about the GPL--they send the license to legal, and legal advises management about what must be done with the release. Of course, this isn't quite the case for small companies, without legal departments.
Yes, Libranet is very good, but it is still a text-based installer, which many people don't like. I do believe it's the best text-based installer, and I use Libranet (the adminmenu is nice too), but I'd have to say the Anaconda installer is better, at least for someone unfamiliar with Linux.
There are two major kinds of laws: legislation, like bills that go through Congress; and case law, written up by the courts. Major League Baseball's exemption may not be in legislation, but that doesn't make it any less of an exemption.
...and I found it for Mozilla by accident when I tried to do it for Gaim--Gaim is GTK2, and uses .gtkrc-2.0, Moz is GTK1, and uses .gtkrc. I merely put the Gaim stuff in the wrong file, and got Emacs keybindings for Mozilla.
Whoops--forgot TB doesn't have voting.
Agreed. Vote for bug 215883.
Vote for bug 23114. If it's fixed, clicking the X-POPFile-Link header will open up a browser window with the relevant message options shown.
Put the following in your ~/.gtkrc:
gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs"
I'd also add it to ~/.gtkrc-2.0
It's not completely like Emacs, but it is better.

These might be reasons 2.6.0-test is not yet called 2.6.0. Right now it's not completely stable. By the release it may be.

Dude--put down the axe.
Well, yes, the programmers need to make sure the company knows and understands the GPL. Be that sending it to legal or explaining it to the manager.

How do I know Norm Coleman is actually doing anything? His website doesn't mention any of his views on issues, so I'm mostly left in the dark.
Note that a .svgz extension denotes a gzipped svg image and is supposed to be treated the same by an SVG viewer.
...so I feel obligated to link to the Mozilla SVG Project.
I'm guessing WVG = fucked up SVG
Isn't that free speech? Of course, the amendments don't apply to LA County.
Well, the Ohio governor has a line-item veto, so he can veto certain parts of bills.
