Or I can develope the apps for Gnome and use what I would have to pay for the QT lic for other business expenses. For a smalltime developer the four digit price tage of QT may be too big of a one time charge.
"The PA Ministries of Education and Sport have turned the most abhorrent murderers of Jews into role models and heroes for Palestinian youth. [For instance, a] tournament for 11-year-old boys was named for Abd Al-Baset Odeh - the terrorist who murdered 30 in the Passover Seder suicide bombing. This past summer, during the period of the US-sponsored Road Map, numerous summer camps were named for suicide bombers... As recently as September this year, PA Chairman Arafat and 13 PA leaders jointly sponsored a soccer tournament honoring arch terrorists... Each of the 24 soccer teams was named for a terrorist or other Shahids [Martyrs], including some of the most infamous murderers like Yichye Ayash, the first Hamas bomb engineer, who initiated the suicide bombings...
"While music videos around the world are used to entertain children, in the PA they are used to indoctrinate children to hatred, violence, and Shahada. Regularly-broadcast PA music videos have actors depicting Israelis carrying out execution-style murders of old men, women and children, or blowing up mothers with their babies. In one music video broadcast continuously in 2003, actors portray a woman being murdered in cold blood in front of her daughter. In another, broadcast tens of times in 2003, the image of a young girl on a swing turns into a flaming inferno, and a football blows up after being kicked by a child. Children are taught through these videos not only to hate and to be violent, but are openly encouraged to aspire to death through Shahada [Martyrdom]. Clips designed to offset a child's natural fear of death, portraying child Shahada as both heroic and tranquil, have appeared on PA TV thousands of times over three years. One clip for children ends with the words: 'Ask for Death - the Life will be Given to you.' In another, a child writes a farewell letter and goes off to die. Children who have achieved death through suicide missions have been turned into PA heroes and role models by the PA leaders.
I wrote letters to my reps in DC. I emailed stories on them to people/reporters I know to help get the word out. I submited articles on them to various blogs that I contribute to. I have in the past, donated money to support what I believe in.
No. I wasn't complaining about anything. I was asking a question. A question that most for-profit software developers ask before they select a GUI platform for their linux apps.
They don't take stands on things that are 'safe' to take stands against.
The don't take stands against china nor do they take stands against what the current goverment of iran is doing to those students that protest against it.
In short, the don't believe in there protest, the just want to look 'cool and/or 'progressive'
What follows is a quote from the GNU-Darwin web site. How is stating the truth a troll?
"GNU-Darwin will not support or distribute any software which links to proprietary libraries, and that includes Cocoa, Carbon, CoreAudio, etc. There will be no native package manager from GNU-Darwin (pkg_add suffices). Second, we will be moving our operations to x86, and we are putting the ppc collection into maintenance mode.' "
Conservative thinking is no longer welcomed in the GOP. Just look at GWB and his spending/political policies. Don't look at what he SAYS look at what he does.
"In fact, we did blackout the home page as a war protest in March, and we blackened the whole website, after Apple used the DMCA, but we have never actually taken it off line"
Did they take the site offline when "The war veterans - unleashed by President Robert Mugabe to seize white-owned farms - are not, however, killing only people: they are slaughtering animals on an unprecedented scale."?

Did they take the site offline to protest the actions of the goverment of iran to put down the student lead protest movement that has resulted in thousands being thrown in jail?
No? Why not? Do they only protest against things that are 'in style' and/or 'hip' with their 'progressive' friends?
Yes, if you desire the source code for these apps you are more than welcome to enter into an agreement that will allow you access to the source code, even the right to modify/distribute the code could be allowed.
As to everything being free, well, my family has to eat somehow.
1: I work nights 2: I am unable to turn my phone ringer off because of kids in school and/or other emergencies. 3: The ringing of the phone costs me sleep and causes me to be less well rested.
Why should I have to accept that other companies have the right to contact me during my sleep cycle?
They are free to use the postal service if they feel the need to contact me.
As to the lack of coordination between telemarketers, the DNC list would provide that. But they don't want the DNC list, the want the right to bother everyone with a phone number.
The base cost of my phone service is about 25.00 USD per month, before long distance. That works out to be 300.00 USD per year, which is a rather high price tag.
They don't care if you want them to call you or not. If they did care they would not be fighting the list that allows them to know who doesn't want their calls!
Can I build fast, non-scripted, closed source apps for KDE like I can for GNOME? Or do I still have to pay the 4 digit price tag for a commerical QT DEV license?

Zimbabwe, China, and Iran are not democracies. No shit? I thought they were lands of milk and cotton candy!!!
But bringing attention to their plight could go a long way in correcting them. But they chose to protest against something they could not change.

Just a sample of what is in the article.

Please provide a link to a page on the gnu-darwin homepage that show support was restored and that support will not be pulled again.

TRUE!
It is having 100% user growth each year! Pretty soon Hurd will have at least 512 users!
That would be a Republican.

How about this.
1: I work nights
2: I am unable to turn my phone ringer off because of kids in school and/or other emergencies.
3: The ringing of the phone costs me sleep and causes me to be less well rested.

No. Because you, more than likely, wrote the emails on company time/equiptment. The copyright would rest with the company as a work for hire.
How is it copying if all I do is call the API and link to the required QT libs?
The base cost of my phone service is about 25.00 USD per month, before long distance. That works out to be 300.00 USD per year, which is a rather high price tag.
They don't care if you want them to call you or not. If they did care they would not be fighting the list that allows them to know who doesn't want their calls!
Yes I have. But that doesn't mean that their arguement makes sense.
Yes, KDE copies GUI ideas from commercial entities all the time.
Isn't that wrong also?
Free speech rights?
What right does another have to use something I pay for to send me messages I do not want?
No. I asked a question. I also fail to see why my simple question was moded down so much.
No, it isn't.
Can I build fast, non-scripted, closed source apps for KDE like I can for GNOME? Or do I still have to pay the 4 digit price tag for a commerical QT DEV license?
All keyboards that are not IBM Model M keyboards are evil.
Don't you know anything?
How brillant are you if your ideas do not work in the REAL WORLD?
