I have written a huge estimation application (web-based). The calculations are something like O(n^n) or worse... point is, processors aren't getting faster. We are however getting a lot more cores. The algorithm parallelizes very well, but perl does not do efficient multi-threading. So I will have to re-write the estimation engine in something else.
2: Compilability
For the companies that want to keep their code proprietary... there are projects that pretend this, but they just append the code to the interpreted. Trivially reversable.
I havn't come across any centralized resource for this, but I was thinking of building one. Wanna help? I was thinking a simple page for people to submit new ip's to, and the ability to dl the list. So you could setup a cron job to update your list every night. What do you think? I'm willing to host.
I don't know how good customer service is at Network Solutions, but our ISP was taking over 24 hours to process our change requests. This was unacceptable to us. So we roll our own.
The downside is that you have to make sure these machines are secure, hence there is an overhead to it all.
I'm currently using their 14 day evaluation copy. It seems to work as advertised. I am planning on replacing our existing exchange server with our IMAP mail server, unless something goes wrong in the next 7 days.:)
Insight Connector seems to me to work very well. No complaints so far, and it's certianly reasonably priced.
What they all don't realise is that we do not code for the desktop in an effort to destroy Microsoft (well, some do). We code for the desktop because we do not want to use Microsoft on OUR desktops. That is the reason why people code for what they want to code for. Most open source coding is not funded. We do it to write software that WE WANT TO USE!
I was working on a similar project, and had decided to use a different language to control the mp3 player. I ended up using spanish...but figured something that was COMPLETELY different would be better. I hadn't gotten around to learned swahili when I ran out of time to work on it.
It sure would be nice if there was a school where people like us all could go.
I'm currently a University Student, and even it bores me. It'd be nice if we could have a nice community, with a nice education system that works, and meets the needs of every student.
I even have ideas on exactly how it should be done.
Anyone care to engage in intellectual discourse on the subject?

We have been putting a lot of work into zoneminder lately to make it easier and to support more devices. You might want to take another look.
yes you can install other things but they don't work well. they are crippled compared to what they were like in natty.
im shopping around for something else.
and typing one-handed hence the lack of capitals
For me anyways:
1: Better multi-threading support

Matrox has not supported Linux for it's video capture products at all. In fact, they even refuse to return emails inquiring about such support.

What?! You don't use Rasca?! :)

Rasca is an mp3 player for KDE that has support
for streaming over http and ftp. Shoutcast client and server support is also being added.
