Won't giving the source code to a university be considered releasing it? It would be fairly easy for someone with access to the code at one of these universities to report if the code contains the zlib copyright.
What's the point of this supid stat? What are you trying to state. If you are arguing too many people are getting hurt in the Middle East fighting why break it down by nationality? If you are arguing the higher number of death on the Palestinian side is what is important then would change their conception of who is "right" or "wrong" if groups like Hamas had their way and were successful in killing hundreds of Jews?
Companies will do this. Several years ago at the University of Waterloo, the company producing QNX gave away copies of the OS to the CS department. They came with no technical support and you could not use it in a commerical setting but the company clamied the full value as a tax write off.
No, you are entering a contract, you agree to free any source that you produce for publicly available programs from the source you download. If developers are responsible for the cost of bugs beyond that in the contract, the first big company to get hit by a Linux or Apache problem will sue.
Yes, and get sued the first time they try to release it. Unless the judge declares the MS has to open source the code, or that they have lost the copyright to it, nobody can copy it. In fact any person that looks at it should not work on any other OSes for a period of time.
Its the supid stats of death. Get a clue, the number of people killed has no relevance to who is right and who is wrong. Nor does it discribe who wishes the numbers of killed on both sides would lower and who wants to kill everyone they hate.
They could leave in Active X but make the process of running Active X controls more explicit. For example never load or run Active X controls automatically. Make it that the user must explicit authorization each download of an Active X contol subject tosystem admins making a list of controls that can run.
Don't allow scripting to use any controls on the machine unless the script itself is certified by a system admin.
The idea of killing SOAP would annoy David Winer of Userland Software however.
This would explain why so many Mars probes have been lost. Martian Space Defense is shooting them down before they land. All that stuff about forgetting to convert from Imperial to Metric is just a cover-up.
In Canada on CNN, AOL Time Warner runs a "aren't we great" ad that basically does just that. It lists: AOL, CNN, CNN Headline News, TSB, TNN, Tuner Classic Movies, Time, Warner Brothers, New Line Cinema, Netscape and maybe others. I think it should be Exhibit A in any Microsoft defense any against the charge that they are attacking, Netscape - the little guy.
The reason why Lindows is going to lose is that they are not promoting a produce call XYZ Windows which is distinct from MS Windows but Lindows which really does sound like Windows and competes against it. If MS where to come out with an operating system product called Red Cat I'm sure Red Hat would sue to stop it.
Are the actual papers online and are there any similar papers by Anti-virus companies?

And that party is the Arabs, they rejected the 1947 partition plan and look what it got them.
As a result there is no Palestinian state and will not be until they end their hatred of Israel and decide to live peacefully in their own state, not in some "right of return" to Israel.
Becuase it's a poll. When someone reads that 74% of poll respondants think blah, they assume that it's an accurate sample of what everyone thinks. But those same people conveniently gloss over the fact that this is a non-scientific poll.
Those people should not be trusted to turn on a computer let alone have any authority over IT related decisions if they use a web poll to guide them. Somebody at MS rallying the troops to vote for.NET is no different than a post here saying, vote for KDE as the best GUI. You cannot trust a web poll.
Any company with a patent in the Digital Recorder area (Tivo, Replay, MS?) will likely sue them to try to stop the competition.
A DVD recorder to archive recorded TV shows to something better than VHS would also be nice. The Firewire port would allow this once the price goes down.
What's the point of this stupid stat on the number of people killed in the Middle-East. The number of people killed has nothing to do with who is right and who is wrong in a conflict. Japan lost many more troops and civilians than the US during WW2 in the Pacific but there were the aggressors.
One e-mail during the holiday's. Its's irresponsible to release the details without giving AOL some time first to fix it. I hope this hacking group gets sued for aiding people in using this hole.
What is important to know is how would this "New Napster" deal with an artist that wants to put their songs on the service and get a small payment (say 25 cents) for every download. If the artist must sign with a label then the service is just a web interface to the RIAA. If they actually sign and promote (or allow artists to buy promotional space on the service) then it would be useful for both new and existing artists.
Lessig argues that extending copyright on previous works is wrong because the authors of the work are dead and cannot produce anymore. He ignores that fact that having an extended copyright increases the incentive for current artists to produce. Without incentive - either financially or knowing that your art will remain true to your vision nothing would get done any more.

Why? If 14 years in the orginial constitution is enought for you to believe it should hold true today, then why not the rest of the document?
A likely defense for MS is to say that Windows Embedded is a completely different OS that just shares some APIs and the name of Windows.
Yes, and get sued the first time they try to release it. Unless the judge declares the MS has to open source the code, or that they have lost the copyright to it, nobody can copy it. In fact any person that looks at it should not work on any other OSes for a period of time.

Moxi says that they will be using Linux which is interesting for a company founded by the man behind MS's WebTV.

They can also try to sale you a subscription to the Globe and Mail newspaper and convince you to watch CTV all the time.

And Solectron is the one doing the after sale support.

Given that the message states AOL will do a server side fix in a day, why not wait ONE DAY before releasing the exploit details.
