When you can't DO anything wrong, you will never get a feeling of responsability. Let me repeat that. It's very important to be ABLE to do wrong things, so you will feel more responsable.
I assume there will be techniques for an app to bypass CORBA mechanisms when needed.
Accelerated X-servers also bypass a lot of code to speed things up, especially when displaying movies or playing games. When they are run over a network thing get slow again.
I think Berlin is going to use this kind of tricks too. Bypass slow code when you don't need it.
1. Maybe, we might come up with a solution. And you can always run your program in a nested Xserver.
2. Berlin does not include any drivers for graphic-card. Instead, it relies on other programs to do that. Currently everybody uses GGI because it has a working implementation working in a X-window. It also works on SDL, GLUT (OpenGL) and framebuffers. Support for other interfaces should be very easy to add.

;)
And that's exactly what he didn't do. No vote just because his name is on it

Ehm, and I'd like a windowmanager in gnome too.
So that'd be Enlightenment/GNOME/XFree86/GNU/BSD/Linux/GRUB
I think we're best of, saying we use a Open Source Environment (compliant to Free Software Guideline).
yahm, RMS calls himself rms too. They're both good guys and they both do what they have passion for. They probably even like that about each other.
Is the driver source available. Open source or not, I may want to use my own exotic OS.
You already can, but I doubt its LCD
This is an interesting piece of text. Writing techniques rule the world.
The whole project runs on windows?!?! And it's mostly written in Visual Basic?!?
Talking about impossible....
How does he plug in those old cartridges?
Do you actually know any thing about either virusses, Linux OR Windows?
Yeah, who needs antivirus software when you have a secure system?
You mean the most popular, security is for wimps, platform.
There are much more unix-exploits out there than windows exploits. The problem is ofcourse sysadmins (or vendors) not patching their systems.
There are more UNIX users out there than windows-servers.
This must be Thursday, I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
Is that SO?
How do missioncritical projects handle this kind of problems? That's nuclear stations, NASA and the like...
Major companies are always major victims
I can't imagine people can live satisfied doing this kind of work. Dammit learn to program.
It's planned for december IIRC

I see a "chemical experiments exchange" forum comming up on ./
I think slashdot should have such a caching service too.
*NEWS* is almost never in google's cache.
Also interesting info @ www.sun.com
