The Regulatory Recovery Fee is $1.50 per phone number. This is a fee that Vonage charges its customers to recover regulatory-related costs it incurs. These costs may include, but are not limited to, Federal and State Universal Service Funds (USF), 9-1-1 fees, E 9-1-1 fees, CALEA compliance costs and other regulatory-related fees and costs. In addition, the Regulatory Recovery Fee covers similar regulatory costs incurred in foreign countries. Your total Regulatory Recovery Fee reflects a $1.50 surcharge for every phone number you have, including primary voice lines, second lines, fax lines, Toll Free PlusSM numbers, SoftPhones and Virtual Phone NumbersSM.
From a google search, on USF on CALEA The thing i don't understand is how far an average user would ever get to use these services.

Embedded Gentoo?
·
· Score: 3, Insightful
I would have read about 40-50 comments & all i see if people have serious misunderstanding of this project..
Here is their project goal. From what i read, build in ur PC & move it to embeded device, gentoo style.
2. Project Goals The intention of the project is to make Gentoo viable for embedded systems. This includes creating a system for cross compiling and building the image for an embedded system on a Gentoo workstation. The base install image should be minimal, with different libc options. Building on this base, the system can be customized for the particular system.
It also means an empty car cannot & should not wait unconditionally in a station for ever.
The thing i fail to see details on to see how a car break down is handled. Are the other cars intelligent to help a disabled car.. now that would be too much.
The answer here is, if a station can hold a max of 6 cars at a time, and if there are already 6 cars in place the 7th car won't enter, if its empty. But if it has passengers destined for this station then it has no choice but to wait. But the wait could happen by a slight slow down enroute than a standstill wait. This slow down would ensure there is a slot for this car when it reaches the station.
And yes, we can theorize a lots of situations where these systems fail. After all, these are computer programs which do if's & else's.
Patents are issues for methods not for implimentation. so without code you can almost certainly say what method is used to reach from A to B. So this problem almost equally applies both to closed & open source apps. Perhaps with Open source you can verify easier than closed source.
Yes it happend & guess what those EVM's will be torched & people are asked to vote again in those affected places with different once. This time there will be so much security that even the thought of repeating the same fraudulent voting pattern, would land you in serious problem. And remember earlier elections, this stuff used to more wide spread.
What if there was a project whose sole job is to look for this kind of problems.
There are projects for documention , drivers, devices, hardware for linux. Why __not__ for this.
This would requred mostly non-technical people and an efficient feedback system to the project maintainers.
And the Linus's "enough eyeball's" Law which applies to the Software bugs would work extremly well in this case, since the core project developers can't do this alone. And at the same token, depending on non-technical end-users to look for these & report would be a wait for ever.
My two cents.
It all depends on the definition of "Semi-Skilled". Is programming in VB like creating a form & writting code snippets for Various events "Semi_Skilled"?? Is a Web Designer "Semi-Skilled"??
Is a guy working to write financial back-office trading systems or the guy writting compilers & stuff more important than the above??
Most indian companies / IT people fall under the first category. Say 10% of them work on stuff for companies like intel which may be usefull tomorrow. I would say this is the same ratio here in the US or any other country.
Given the above i would say the WSJ statement is infact TRUE.
To my knowledge there is no such program like H1B in india. I would say it would be almost impossible to get a temp visa/job in india unless the company already has a presense in say both in US & india like GE or Oracle. Again, this should be changed for good & most of the changes should occur on indian side. And the pressure should be from the US & EU.
I pretty much agree. and i am an indian. Most work in india is done for American companies like GE, microsoft. So the real talent even if its there never gets used to create anything new of their own. Hope this changes.
Hey. i am indian too but living in USA for the past few years. When u say there are large companies for cable & local cable dealers are affliated to them, can you give me a couple of those large companies. The last i remember is that there were small cable guys who give cable to say a 100 houses in a locality.
According to you, if i am in pune & want to subscribe to this service. I buy the settop box from one guy & use the service from another guy.
Again, is this network designed to carry the different cable tv channels ( the last mile ) or the user would need to use another connect to the cable company (local once ). Where do they get the Cable channel information like showtimes & shownames & desc. Is there a central location. like in the US they have websites that publish TV Guides.
In your knowledge, is there any big companies which do all the cable tv content from one connection in ur area / city. Or is it fragmented between small guys with say 100's of Cable TV users.
1. Its a set-top box. 2. A network to hook up the Set-top boxes into.
The things i don't understand is who installs & manages this network assuming its available in the cities. Is there any place we can use this network today. What is the network architecture. Does it use open protocols.
From what i gather, they allow other set-top box manufactures to use this network.
But how about the content providers.
How does the content like TV channels are delivered. Does the user still need outside cable connection.
I can understand the Internet options, just throw in an ISP onto the network u got everything internet.
Just a few questions. Would really like to see the answers. Pavan
You are the only guys who are carrying on an interesting conversation in all these conversations. And i have zero knowledge about any off these stuff.
Yes, i am indian and i am proud off these reliance guys to do a feat like this. And thanks for people like yourself who keep the uninformed like me informed.
MS.NET is pretty similar to what the Windows common controls was for Win95. U see. After a while applications needed a standard way to Open Dialoge, Save as Dialoge. So Common controls were created..NET Goes way further. Apart from changing the subtle look & feel. Meaning everything is similar to browsing.. but with predominent usage on Internet. Like previously we developed apps using VB. How do u port it to the internet. Almost imposible. Now u write em in VB.. just publishem ur good to go..
All the app servers are users of the.NET Framework or they understand the Framework.
The Windows.NET is a joke. Its nothing but windows 2000 with.NET Framework in it.. so that any windows client will have a common Framework & any app complient to that framework will. look the same & work this same.
Slashdot Mirror
Could be GOOOSA
i copy pasted your URL & it came up almost immediatly.
i am using firefox on gentoo & it works
In all fairness to M$, they do a have good suite of dev tools. They are geared more towards quick programming NOT effective programming.
Ofcourse, you could develope plain old C/C++ low level programs on Windows but that would be HELL compared to similar programs on NIX's.
cool & interesting site. guess i would learn a thing or 2 there about math.
thanks

The maps doesn't show all the different areas. Lots of blank spaces on the map.

And the pm's office
The prime-miniters website moved from Linux to Windows go figure.
Atleast this guy who maintains these above sites
www.nic.in moved from solaris to linux !!!
