In fact, you exhibit a common misconception. If you want version control, CVS do the work. But what you seem looking for, and what do many of the alternative proposed in the replies is configuration management. Now, what an ideal system would be? I don't think one size fit all. You need very quick local net access (bye bye CC), and you need infrequently, losely connected internet developpers. But not at the same time. So I don't think tere is one unique response to your question.
For the ISP/customer relation, the one and only question is the contract between them. Is bandwith sharing prohibited or not. If it is, WIFI or not, the customer is wrong.
One more annoying aspect is the fact that more and more law enforcement agency ask ISP to keep log of connection informations. This lead me to think that WiFi enthusiast sharing their connection, acting as local ISP, need something like the WGAP. What's this ? The Wandering Guest Access Protocol is an idea I work on in my (few) spare times since a few month, permiting for a user sharing bandwith to deny responsability about some part of the traffic emanating from his network, notably by using an authentication of the Wandering Guest using its network. But there are so many legal and technical challenges I doubt I can publish any lifetime soon a satisfying presentation. Anybody wanting free WIFI networks being acceptables to the establishment must think about legal aspects. Else, the post 20010911 effect will provide the perfect excuse for the telcos to remove competition.

Last time I checked (a few year ago), there was the notion of LSB-compliant and LSB-conformant. That is a LSB conformant respect strictly the LSB. A LSB compliant add just a bunch of links in order to present a LSB compatible organisation. When I'll go in the business of choosing a distro, LSB compliance will not be on my list but LSB conformance.
It is easy : terrorist are the wrong guys (those who don't control the media). Why is Julius Caesar considered as a good general ? Because he was the one who wrote the story^H^H^H^H^Hhistory. Why were revolutianary in France and US good guys ? Because they won.
if you point a domain to an IP address of someone that doesn't wish you to False: by setting up a domain name, you say that some string of char is to be understood as some number. It happens that browser and user expect it to have some meaning, but you are only paying for the right to say: this string is to be translated as this 32bit number.
even if reuter could claim credit for some argentic copy of the original they have, why is not Hewlett Packard taking credit for the phosphor image I'm currently viewing? (it'is just a continuation of a flawed reasoning). Or perhaps, it is a derived work? More importantly, the original photographer is not itendified. From a press agency, usually prompt to show where credit is due, I find this very annoying
Planning to introduce a DRM system on computers will certainly causes directly or indirectly a degradation, failure, or other impairment or function of a computerised system or any part thereof, as any reasonable person can see.
Text and pictures are nice, but what would be nice would be holograms. Given the size of patterns in CD, is it possible (theorically)? Can we programmatically make it?
Previous suggestions to senior management that myself and other developers would feel better with a technical person running projects have been dismissed. Look at a recent DDJ editorial: http://www.ddj.com/documents/s=2287/dd j0202q/0202q . tm
Has anyone else found the barrier to project management is their technical knowledge. How did you get past it? Wrong question. The right one is: Why is there no (or very few) way for technical persons to evolve and be recognized without choosing the dark side of the force? How come peoples who choose to work with computers, often because they have a straight and scientific state of mind, are obliged, in order to progress, to choose management, which is not the most scientific process? As for test avoidance and look first, if they can not change their point of view, in the long run, they are doomed. Consequently, you too, if you stay.
Yes, but the client can be required to prove it's integrity, by a hash on himself. Of course, it needs to know the key, and this is reverse engeenerable, but if some major do that, some norvegian or russian can throw them the DMCA.
Macrovision is not copy protection, it is copy prevention. It is an additionnal technical measure complicating the work of the copier of an already legally protected work. It doesn't protect copy. It is not copy protection.
I also think that eclipse is the way to go, but... perhaps not yet. Not even in 2 weeks when 2.0 final will hopefully be out. I use it extensively, and I find that what it does, it does well. but: You can integrate what you want, if your vendor integrate it for you, or if you are ready to put some ressources on the project. If you come from visualX, you have to learn java, and a special java, for that (eclipse is based on swt which is neither awt nor swing). As an integration platform, it is quite open. As a java IDE, the great is next to the worst(no swing support, no javadoc wizard like netbeans...). As a C++ ide, I have no experience, but they seems to go nicely, except, in your case, they especially target Linux.
So eclipse is very promising and very interesting. But I would'nt impose it TODAY to developpers that don't choose it themselves.
No, it's not. Capitalism work when there is no monopoly. If someone managed to corner the market (get all available goods), he doesn't make a single benefit to the market and the society. If copyrights were really limited, concurence, in the form of electronic publishing for those who want to read could be envisionned. Presently, we observe an artificial scarity, driving prices up. It is perhaps intelligent for the one who manage the operation, but it is clearly immoral.

Capitalism is no excuse for the privatisation of the commons. Signing this photo reuters instead of Niepce is clearly stealing.

No, the issue is : can one put in the public domain a technique for making patents irrelevants?

everybody who studied .Net admire Microsoft for the marvellous creation of the concept of skinable langages.
You use C# with a vb skin, with a fortran skin, with a cobol skin, now with a Caml skin.
But as with Winamp, what's important is the tune you play.
