  8. Re:what's the goal? on Advice for an Open Source Development Grant? · · Score: 5, Insightful
    Is your goal ge get the job done, or to open source your code, or to get money? Imho they are very different goals.

    Come on, they are not very different goals. You can get the job done while having an open source product (and no money). I mean, have you seen the linux kernel? I does get the job done. You could also have the job done and get money while being closed source. You could also have open source and get money, just look at redhat, mysql, etc, etc.. So no, they are nod different goals.

    They found 2 animals. the first one was the whale found at Las Mancillas. The other one was found at a beach called Pinuno which is 3.9 kilometers to the north of Las Mancillas. When CCC was alerted of the second aminal they first thought it was another whale, but after they saw the carcass they realized it was an invertebrate. They are now sending some tissues to France so they can have a genetic analissis. They believe is a giant octpus. (that is found in the last 2 paragraphs of the webpages you gave us).

  17. Re:attention mozilla users... on RIAA CEO Hilary Rosen to Become CNBC Commentator · · Score: 5, Informative

    June 19, 2003 -- Hilary Rosen, the outgoing head of the Recording Industry Association of America, has landed an on-air gig at CNBC, The Post has learned.

    Rosen, who will officially step down from her powerful RIAA post at the end of the month, has inked a deal to be a commentator for CNBC, she recently told music industry executives in an e-mail, a copy of which was obtained by The Post.

    Her gig will begin Aug. 1. According to the e-mail, she will discuss politics on the network's evening show, "Capitol Report," and give commentary on the media industry on the shows "Power Lunch" and "Squawk Box."

    "They are looking for me to do the larger picture on some of the content convergence and media consolidation issues and know that I have a point of view on many issues as a longtime advocate," she wrote in the e-mail.

    She added that she will assist the network in its coverage of Congress and the upcoming presidential election.

    Rosen, who has been the chairwoman and CEO of the RIAA since 1998, announced in January her intention of stepping down.
