Uhm, yes, the public does. Let's list some obvious examples: 1) State schools are cheaper to in-state students 2) State-funded scholarships and grants 3) Federally-funded scholarships, grants, and deferments.
At public universities, this work is partially publicly funded so it should end up in the public domain, or at worst, with a BSD or other unobtrusive (Apache or X) license on it.
Re:"Simple" grapefruit stacking problem?

But which one seems simpler. I know how to stack grapefruits but have no idea how to construct a wormhole.:)
60% of the webservers in the Netcraft survey run Apache but this makes no claim for the OS. This would be 84% of the Apache sites are running Linux. Since Apache ships standard on MacOS X and runs without flaw on Solaris, FreeBSD, and damn near any other Unix varient, I find this number an exaggeration at best or more of Stallman's bullshit at worst.
Uhm, no. BSD would still be there, without the GPL. Mach would still be there, without the GPL. X Windows would still be there, without the GPL. Apache would still be there, without the GPL, Tcl/Tk would still be there, without the GPL. This list goes on and on, but what is really telling is that the most important, BSD, Mach, and the X Windows System all predate GNU:)
NeXT's product line was so confusing I didn't think I'd get it right either and it looks like I didn't. I was only hoping to get the point across and I think I succeeded in that.
Okay, have to say it. My copy of OS X arrived right at the same time this went up (I got back from the door and decided to load up Slashdot while opening the box). So I will need to install it soon enough.
SecureBSD and TrustedBSD are really just extensions to FreeBSD. Similarly, RTMX is a set of extenstions to OpenBSD. I didn't think it would be good to include them in this. Addtionally, with BSD/OS effectively merging with FreeBSD, I didn't include it either. However, it gives me an idea for a new article...:)
Banner advertising has already proven ineffective. Will this help? I know my own mind already automatically filters banner ads. Making them bigger means I will just spend more time ignoring them.
Like Newtonian physics? I mean, driving a car around behaves the laws of Newtonian physics, but the fact of the matter is, Newton didn't have it right.
Linux rules, not BSD
There are more systems currently running BSD and BSD-derived code today than there are Linux. Something to think about, no? (Remember, there is BSD code in Linux, so proof of only one BSD system shows this is true.)

There is a GPL'd Hello World...

It's not a review, it is a link to the New York Times.
Ignoring the misspelling and poor grammar, this is just plain wrong.
Grammar: The comma is optional.
Spelling: The spelling is correct.
Ack! I thought Einstein did that. But I disagree on the statement that you cannot prove a relationship.

No. It just crashed VMWare for me.
qwk format: That would be totally sweet!
Is that from an early issue of Transmetropolitan?

Ack, that came out wrong. I meant to say they bought U.S. West which was a Baby Bell.
Qwest is not a Baby Bell. Qwest bought U.S. West to become a Baby Bell.
They aren't. They are packages you install on top of FreeBSD.

See what I said in comment #11.

Aspirin is a generic term. Use Xerox or Tylenol for the same connotations.
I think I heard the mooring mast was used once but I remember none of the details.
Considering how slowly Slashdot is loading today, I'd say yes.
That's not even a valid FQDN.
