Python 2.2.1 (#1, Aug 30 2002, 12:15:30) [GCC 3.2 20020822 (Red Hat Linux Rawhide 3.2-4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
Mozilla 1.0 doesn't play well with evolution 1.0.X. I tried it, but evolution is statically linked to mozilla libraries. Move the libraries and u are screwed.
Patents were concieved as a trick to get inventors to disclose their inventions or trade secrets instead of keeping them secret (no source code). Patents are a system where an inventor discloses an invention, and receives a monopoly for a period of time on the implimentation disclosed.
The general idea is to promote the exchange of ideas. In most cases, once the idea is disclosed there is always another implemtation (that doesn't violate the patent) that can be marketed or disseminated.
The only value of a patent is to recognize the inventor of a significant concept and disseminate that concept, while giving the inventor a lead time to exploit the idea. They are usually not a barrier to entry in most markets, depending on the field concerned in the way that copyright is. A more significant barrier is expertise in the field.
I may be wrong, but reserving judgement would be a good thing since she may hear about the nine litigating states proposals etc. prior to pronouncing judgement.
I am on PPPoE by sympatico in Toronto, they used to be DHCP. When they were, some people who wanted a static IP address would hard code their address. A couple of times they took one I happened to have been assigned by the DHCP server. When they did, my service sucked. One guy was running a pretty busy FTP server at this address. PPPoE fixed all that, however the service was really unreliable for a while.
BTW <A HREF="http://www.roaringpenguin.com/pppoe/">roa ring penguin</A> has a great userland PPPoE deamon that is rock solid. I have a Mandrake box operating as a router on my network - uptime is greater than six months right now.
A Class action suit, alleging that Thompsons' comments are to spread fear, uncertainty and doubt regarding ogg vorbis, thereby hurting consumers/developers/website operators (pick one or all)
I am suprised all the geeks on this forum didn't get that this is just a compressed air car. The basic tech is for sale at Home Depot in the tool corral. Liquid Nitrogen is just really-really compressed.

If wishes were fishes, perhaps a question to ask is why doesn't Apple port AQUA and the rest of the GUI layer to linux?
