The only major distributor that is missing here is Redhat. And Debian is not a major distribution? I think you should be a bit more impartial in your comments. "The only" is a quite strong expression.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
So you can use section 3b instead of 3c if you for instance have an ftp or web site up at least three years from the release date containing the source code.
Well, I know that:) To bad I'm just having a modem connection (now my system is hopeless outdated version of potato). Also, unstable seems to have a bit too many known bugs (~300 methinks). What we need is Gnome for slink.
Just another tought: I don't think it's legal to copy the article from idg.se, even if it's translated. So ironically Slashdot could be sued for the same crime...
According to http://www.php3.net/license.html, "PHP is distributed under 2 licenses. You are free to choose whichever license suits your requirements best. The first is the traditional GNU GPL (General Public License) and the second is the PHP License."
Why release the software under the QPL and not the GPL. PHP3 is released under the GPL, so PHP4 has to be too. Which means GPL:d software will be linked with QPL:d... Aren't the licenses incompatible?

CmdrTaco, maybe you should read this before you posted this article..
- Mail your request to NSI.
- NSI responds back with a random cookie number
- You respond to that mail, and NSI checks if the cookie is the same as they mailed out.
Don't ask me why they don't are using it...What we really need is /usr/lib/libjpeg2k.so.1

Umm... never mind. The deb packages seem to be up at the Debian FTP archive.
The .deb's seem to be gone on the FTP.
Does anybody know anything about it?
Or do I have to start compiling tar-balls and CVS-snapshots again?
