GNOME 2.2 is in Debian unstable already, for the most part. Packages that are versioned 2.2.0 are, anyway. They were out before GNOME 2.2 so they are probably really RC versions of the same packages, but the gnome metapackage (as soon as it becomes installable), will install GNOME 2.2 for you.

This security hole is their fault, they've known about it for quite some time and still haven't fixed it.
Didn't Church-Turing beat them to this?

I mean, theoretically, the Church-Turing thesis states that any algorithm (which, I would hope includes evolution) can be done with the "Turing Machine", which as we all know can be implemented in binary code. So, isn't this basically old news dressed up a different way? (Alternatively, old news with a new perspective for application)
Evolution actually does have newsgroup support (contrary to popular misconception), it's just not done yet. Compile it with --enable-nntp and off you go. I haven't used it, I've just perused the evolution-hackers mailing list:)
I happen to know that there are at least 14 Sealabs. (picking nits, I know, just thought I'd help you find the missing one) Here's the lineup as I know it:
01 - Radio Free 02 - Happy Cake 03 - I, Robot 04 - Chickmate 05 - Predator 06 - Lost in Time (I said it was dodgeball time, bitch) 07 - Little Orphan Angry 08 - Waking Quinn 09 - All That Jazz 10 - Murphy Murph and the Feng Shui Bunch 11 - In the Closet 12 - Stimutacs 13 - Swimming in Oblivion 14 - Der Dieb (aka Martian Law)
I'm not an old codger, I merely play one on that post up there.
Sure, kids aren't learning to do math in their heads, but engineers sure as hell better or they are going to be SOL in the academic world. Sure, you can use calculators on exams, but if you can't calculate ballpark figures in your head quickly, you will spend 80% of the time pushing calculator buttons instead of figuring out solutions.
And an honorable mention niche software would be PTC's Pro/Engineer software, which runs for more than pretty much every other piece of software mentioned in this discussion COMBINED... PER SEAT.
Why on Earth would anyone be a self-proclaimed "rock hound"? I mean, does this include precious gems (I hope, for sanity's sake), or does a "rock hound" just have some screwed up fetish for rough earthen materials?
If someone were to walk up to me and say "Hey man, I'm a rock hound," I would assume: a) the person is just insane, or b) they are trying to sell me crack Did this guy call up the FBI and say he was a "rock hound"? Had I taken the call I would have said "sorry, buddy, you want our buddies in the DEA *click*" Sure, we would have lost the case and it would have been all my fault, but it would have struck a blow for common sense.

Eugenia of OSNews claims to know more about the GNOME releases than the GNOME release manager himself! Fun for the whole family1

No, here it is: http://www.commsdesign.com/story/OEG20030130S0055 Maybe I'll click HTML instead of Plain old text next time.
Here is a story detailing a potential clash between 802.11[ab] and the new .16 standard. Interesting stuff.
La la la la exploit, la la la la description of exploit, la la la la list of many other unpatched IE holes, some are over a year old. This one in particular is over 4 months old.

Isn't this book review a tad bit late considering that PHP5 is going to be hitting the 'net soon?
Thio (well, Theo) is here
I might consider moving there someday :)
and no not Internet2, that's just faster stuff.
MIT got a grant for those DHT (distributed hash table) thingamajiggers, remember?

It's called evolution, learn it.

Just how did the shells work? I never got that.
Erm, I'm pretty sure this fails the "straight" cut requisite. But why restrict ourselves to Euclidean geometry?
