Why not have it read the data out of/proc? These files give you lots of information in a format that is easy to parse; most of the existing commands mangle these into a human-readable form which is a pain to parse.
Perhaps it covers the DTD or some sample code. Personally, I would consider it a bad idea to put a DTD under the Mozilla licence. Forks in interchange formats can be extremely damaging - look at how standard TIFF is! A licence that forced any fork to use a distinct name and to start from version 1 again might be more appropriate.
Only the Artistic License is mentioned. Perl is licensed under both the GPL and the Artistic License. So no, the changes will not be made available under the same license.
You're thinking about 32-bit vs 16-bit addressing and the Windows APIs associated with them. Windows NT/2000 uses 32-bit addressing and has the "Windows on Windows" system for compatibility with 16-bit Windows programs. Windows 95/98 uses a mixture and supports both 32-bit and 16-bit Windows programs with the same code, using "thunks" to bridge between code using different addressing modes.
What "Signal 11" is talking about is the 64-bit extensions for Windows (aka the Win64 API) on Alpha and Merced, which are likely to be included in a sort of Windows 2000.5.
ICANN sets the dispute resolution procedure - and it's worse than you could possibly imagine. If an international corp wants your private domain, you might as well give it up.

Windows 95 OSR1 did not contain any web browser. The original Windows 95 Plus Pack had Internet Explorer 1.0, which was a really sad joke.
One of the neat things about the Compact Flash devices is that one of their modes of operation (controlled by the state of a couple of pins) is fully IDE compatible.
NASA requires radiation-hardened chips which have been shown to be reliable. They do not use really new stuff, and they would not want to increase the vulnerability of their chips to radiation by shrinking them further.
What worries me a little is that Microsoft has been investing in companies that offer high-bandwidth Internet connectivity, including NTL, the company that I get cable TV and telephone service from. They should be offering cable modem service in my area (Cambridge) from around October. I wonder how ready they will be to support Linux when a major shareholder has a strong interest in getting people to use Windows for Internet access?
Yes, the sun isn't really all that big at all (in fact it's around the same size as the moon, as you can see with your naked eye). We need to be really careful that we don't smother it by shovelling our billions of tons of plutonium into it.;-)
An embeded web browser IS a bad thing! Especially if you don't want to use it. Why would a 486 Linux fileserver (for example) need to have all that bloat. You could say don't start X, but that is beside the point. The web browser SHOULD be seperate and be able to be turned off if you don't want it.
What are you talking about? For normal operation, Windows 9X/NT requires a shell to be running that implements a certain COM interface; MS supplies IE4 as the default shell and there are few alternatives. No such requirement exists for X; so I don't see why you think that we are suddenly going to be forced into loading web browsers we don't use.
Bzzzt, wrong. This is not for saving money on CPU fans - they are still needed. The reason for blowing air in is that the PSU can filter the air coming in. If it blows air out, like the original PC, then it will suck air in through any other hole in the computer (e.g. through the floppy drive) where there are no filters, and thus clog the system with dust.
I suspect that they're talking about some kind of "watermarking". So you can kiss goodbye to "CD-quality sound" if they go ahead to this - anything that can still be recognised after MPEG layer 3 encoding is likely to be easily perceptible as distortion.

Ooops. 64 x log2 64 = 64 x 6 = 384.
No, that's a 384-bit bus (64 x log2 6 = 384).

Uh, UDMA is just DMA mode 3 (or possibly 4) for ATA IDE.
A CD-ROM.
You can still use a USB floppy drive.
This is not supposed to happen. I think USB traffic is supposed to be prioritised in some way. If you have bad drivers then it might work this way.
Yes, but that's slower than PCI and slower than the fastest versions of SCSI.
Surely that should read "US society". Grr...
So what about people that don't have a telephone?
So, in order to be able to trust the client, it has to be able to trust the client to tell it what data it's using?

CodeWarrior for Linux is based on gcc, AFAIK. Metrowerks doesn't have a decent x86 compiler - BeOS/x86 switched over to gcc some time ago.

Surely you mean "revolting", not "neat"!

There's a garbage collector for Unix-domain sockets already.
