Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
As you may have heard by now, GeCAD has signed a definitive agreement with Microsoft to sell the Intellectual Property and other technology assets relating to GeCAD's antivirus business.
I would have liked to inform you of this transaction much earlier, but was unable to do so because of the sensitive nature of the news. You will agree that this is a great achievement not only for us at RAV but for everyone who has worked over the last nine years to make this company successful.
Following this acquisition of GeCAD's Intellectual Property rights by Microsoft, RAV will shortly be discontinuing its antivirus products. It is however our intention to fulfil our contractual obligations with our partners, distributors and customers.
Until such time that we formally request you to discontinue sales, I urge you to continue on with the good work that you have been doing. Keep processing orders till such time that we come back to you with a time-table for the future.
I will also keep you posted about developments and will follow up with specific details as and when viable. In the interim, it is business as usual. All partnership contracts are still valid and we will continue to support our customers with the same dedication as we have in the past.
Thank you once again for your understanding and your partnership.
Sincerely Yours,
Radu Georgescu
President GeCAD Software s.r.l.

It seems mettalica is acting just like Recordings Industry's Puppets.
A famous (real) band here in Brazil is selling his new Album for R$22 (~ US$12), the money each of the 4 members receives per CD is R$0,08 (~ US$ 0,04)...
I think I'll open my own record inc.... galmeida records
As far as I know gdb (and others free linux debuggers) never worked with threads. It's not a problem with Debian or RH distro.
If I'm wrong please let me know (and tell me how to debug multi-thread apps).
Re:Alpha, Beta what does it really mean?

- Alpha is (or at least, should be) a software test version not released to final users. It should be used only by the developers team.
- Beta is a test version released to final users, so they can use, find lots of bugs and feed back the developers. Beta versions are closer to final version than alpha versions.
- Final version: now the software is ready for public use.

I saw 3 of them (S/390), one is very old - water cooled.
The police and justice here (I live in Sao Paulo - Brazil) are "TWO PIECES OF S**T", and if a crazy guy goes to a theater (the movie was Fight Club) with a Machine Gun and shoot lots of people, they have to do something just to "show" they're doing something. So what would be better than banning some old famous games they found at killer's house? (hey! it'll put then on TV!) If they try to ban some "new games" they'll make the big stores unhappy (who wants this ?).
In fact banning games will not stop people playing them. About 80% of the games here are pirated copies. Here, you easily can buy an "unoffical" game CD for R$10-R$15 (US$5-7) while the offical one may cost R$100 or more (US$50+)
PS.: when I say crazy guy I really means CRAZY (NUTS, BRAIN DAMAGED). The guy was under psycho treatment.
PS1: I don't think it's cool to buy or sell pirated games. -- sorry about my poor spelling

Maybe cisco is just trying to force people to use IPv6. In this case it could be a good (or not so bad) thing....
