There's also a press release in french, which was translated for you guys. Aren't we nice? I'm sure you can discover it for yourself as I don't want to impose any more french on you. I though someone might appreciate having the info in their first language.
The FACIL association doesn't provide technical services. It's a group to promote free and open source software as well as open standards.
FACIL believes local companies can provide the needed tech support and wants to make sure they at least get a chance in this market.
"Sony attempts to meld its consumer electronics products with networking. The company has a definite plan to start shipping IPv6-enabled products in the fall of 2003. We asked Mario Tokoro, Sony's Co-CTO, on its IPv6 strategy.
[snip]
I can also point out that we need to devise ways to secure sufficient IP address space in coping with the Internet explosion is Asia. Japan may not be so miserable in terms of the IPv4 addresses we have got allocated. Well, up until now, only computers have spoken IP. But we will soon have digital electronics products, mobile terminals and mobile phones, all connected with IP. Even in Japan, current IPv4 address allocation is insufficient. Other Asian countries will face more serious situations. China has smaller IPv4 address space than Sony Group has. We need to make sure that these people will have enough IP addresses for the future. When electronics products and mobile phones become always connected, you can't dynamically allocate IP addresses to cut down address consumption. Therefore we at Sony have internally discussed the undisputable necessity of IPv6 for a long time. Since latter 1990s, our chairman Nobuyuki Idei and I have often discussed that we needed to always keep IPv6 in our mind. In 2000, Idei became the chairperson of IT Strategy Committee of Japanese government, and listed IPv6 as one of strategic focuses, which became widely known. With such background, we take IPv6 seriously and committed to commercialize it."
Aside from the ms remark (can't comment on that), the rest of your points are quite valid. So everything that google touches doesn't turn to gold, what a relief.
Hmm, isn't the foundation itself a little suspicious ? How does it help developpers to know it now has the copyright to the mambo source code ? And does it really matter anyway ?
GPL depends on Copyright, true. But who cares, once the source has been released and permission given to hack on it ?
Somehow, this could help bring some order to the GNU/Linux and Linux confusion, over which expression to use. Since Linux is the kernel, strickly speaking, to uphold that trademark, all uses of Linux when GNU/Linux was actually meant should be dealt with in order to protect the Linux trademark.
It's the law. If you have a trademark, you must protect it's usage and context.

And here I thought any plumber could work on any plumbing.
Would you get your plumbing done by a single vendor that only he could fix? Probably not. Why should software be any different?

The Wikipedia article on RSA-640 has more info. Check this for easy money ;)

Maybe we want to know more about Geronimo before deciding to download it.
Why can't I find a particular business listing in Google Local?
Where does Google Local get its information?

Also, it was pretty much just a dream in netscape's mind, whereas google is in a much stronger position today when comparing both to microsoft.
But Gaim's source is already open !

Thanks fungai! prostoalex, see how that helps ? Yeah, the yahoo article didn't have the link, you coulda spent a second to dig it out though.
Ah, the police and slashdot editors, working (or not) hand in hand. Just what the world needs, really, I'm dead serious.
The simple matter of wondering if you did or didn't write the above leads me to believe you did, in fact, write it.
So let's forget the Ogg container and think in terms of the Xiph family.
