Is there a common place to give tribute to those in our community like this who have been lost? It would be great if there was (sorry, not volunteering). Back in July, one of the main PearPC (the PowerPC emulator) developers died.

Yet another reason my wife and I won't put my kids in public school (when they get that age). Our foster kids, we have no choice. I don't want school administrators providing any information about my kids without my consent, on a case-by-case basis, and that with full disclosure of what information will be released.

Where's that clue-stick of mine? I feel the need to beat someone over the head with it.
The blurb says that they 'settled for Qt', which implies there was a better option that did not work out. This probably should have read 'settled on Qt', which simply means they came to a decision.
But then again, very few plumbers have to deal with users who consistently download BonziBuddy, blindly click on suspicious email attachments and use their cd trays as cupholders.
No, but they do have to deal with problems caused by 'users' who consistently forget that #1 = 1 flush, #2 = 2 flushes. Stupid low-flow toilets... (And no, IANAP)
I know several people have mentioned GAAP already. I know it has been around for ages because I have family that has worked with it for many years.
But the posts I have read do not mention that GAAP is just one method of accounting. The article mentions that this is the first year Red Hat has reported a profit using GAAP.
Although I believe what they are saying is that they have previously reported a loss using GAAP, they may also be saying that they have previously reported a profit using other methods.
I do not know where the original poster got the idea that GAAP is something new.
Maybe a 'postulate' or an 'axiom'? I believe in the hyphothesis/theorum/law progression, there is some implication that it is *provable*. I don't believe Moore's whatchamacallit is.
Pretty soon, there will be little room for innovation. We are already seeing chilling effects from DMCA. If we don't fight, we are just digging our own graves.
Maybe requiring to have a warranty *option* *available* would be more feasible. Vendors could sell (or give away) unwarrantied versions, and sell warrantied versions, for consumers that demanded them. The price difference would be up to the vendor.
I do not know why Vorbis tried to compress those two so much more than the others. But until the developers do something about that, I guess we'll want to specify the bitrate when encoding chamber music. Wait a minute, why would we want to listen to chamber music comprossed to this low-quality anyways?
If I gotta pay extra to get the latest distros either way I go, maybe I should buy them direct. At least then I would be supporting the distributors and not the cable company.
But I already know I am looking for page 37. From an article in another magazine. Or maybe from a references list in an academic paper. Maybe even a Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature.

Not to be confused with MS support, but a group has developed a plugin that allows MS Media Player to play Vorbis.ogg files. I have not had a chance to test it extensively, but it does work. And it appears it was updated yesterday (5 August).

For Chrome, there is a related API that both NetMarketShare and StatCounter are using to figure out what is really happening.

That would have been much more precise in conveying what was meant.

There's not many musical styles I don't like. But lately I have been listening a lot to Switchfoot, Demon Hunter, Emcee One, T Bone.

He wants to get the focus off of his welcoming in

XFork86 ;-)

Hopefully someone who understands where the
name XFree86 comes from will get a laugh.

countries with harsh import/export restrictions on crypto code? What will the impacts on
developers and users in those places be?

This is cool and all, but it is also one step closer to this.
Apparently those two samples were *deceptively* easy. At least that what I get from the test results.

Maybe now that it is actually out, even though the name was official over a month ago, people will stop referring to it as OpenOffice 6.0.
