The parent is not Informative, rev in this case is correct since the resource linked is a NOT the canonical page but a short-url version of the canonical page you are currently on, so the relationship is:
page A with long URL <--is the canonical url of--- page B with short URL
and NOT
page A with long URL ---is another address for the canonical url--> page B with short URL
Page A is the canonical, the long URL page is the authoritative destination, page B is just a shortcut, and not the other way around, so when in page A, if your software are looking for alternate address of that canonical page with shorter urls your software should look for reverse links containing "canonical" as the value. Links for pages that have the current page as the canonical are the ones with rev, not rel.
I admit it is a little confusing, maybe they should be using rel="alternate mirror", rel="alternate short-url" or simply rel="alternate" instead, to indicate that the link points to an alternate version of the current page. But saying that the link is of a page that points reversely to the current page that is the canonical is not wrong
You just need to voluntarily tell the world with one update which license you use.

Nice so it can be re posted on YouTube with little effort.
Still think using a free service that everybody and their dog uses makes a lot more sense than paying for it.
Yes it Can... be reposted to Youtube or Vimeo, or Archive.org or Blip.tv or even your preferred P2P network, you can even host it yourself because as far as I know this videos are all public domain.
But you don't need to re-post them to Youtube and Vimeo at least, because whitehouse folks already do that for you:
They only stopped embedding youtube videos on the whitehouse gov site (maybe to stop advertising google's service for free on a tax-payer funded website, although the link to Vimeo is still there), but they are still publishing copies of the weekly videos on youtube and other free services that everybody and their dog uses...
Ana Pascal: Listen, I'm a big supporter of fixing potholes and erecting swing sets and building shelters. I am *more* than happy to pay those taxes. I'm just not such a big fan of the percentage that the government uses for national defense, corporate bailouts, and campaign discretionary funds. So, I didn't pay those taxes. I think I sent a letter to that effect with my return.
Harold Crick: Would it be the letter that beings "Dear Imperialist Swine"?
Telefonica ISP in Brazil (Speedy) is doing the same thing, redirecting unresolved domains to ajudanabusca.com.br which contains ads from Yahoo searchmarketing.

To clear the cache (and only the cache, not cookies, passwords, history and etc), in 1.5 it took 2 clicks, on 2.0 it take at least five clicks. I don't see this as a vast improvement.
# The new Options dialog box is confusing, poorly designed, and illogically hides important features
Especially given the positive feedback we've gotten on the redesigned pref window, I'd suggest explicitly naming problems here rather than making such a vague and general argument. The new options box is IMO a vast improvement on the old one: it reduces the number of tabs containing embedded tabs to one (the Advanced tab), it rewords many options for grammar and clarity (especially where the old wordings had generated bug reports), and it slightly modifies the default set of options to better fit actual usage. Name the "important features" being hidden and I suspect the list will consist of features that are very important to a tiny fraction of our userbase.
I would not recommend Brazil to anyone, not only because of the giant bureaucracy and very high taxes(without any benefit, trust me, you can't count on any public service), but mostly because of the people.
The culture of taking advantage of others (aka "jeitinho brasileiro", "malandragem") is something they are proud of, the dream of most of the population is to become part of the bureaucracy by achieving a public job where you don't need hard working and have guarantees of receiving the paycheck without any chance of being fired, needless to say that they hate America(and capitalism in general), don't value respect, honor, knowledge, freedom and things like that.
Being a Brazilian myself, temporarily living in the US, it is difficult not to compare the enormous cultural differences and be ashamed of my country, you may dislike Bush, DRM, Microsoft, Michael Moore, Democrats, Republicans, SUVs, Richard Stallman or whatever, but you live on a nation, with principles, values and educated people. Stop whining.
The workaround I am using to prevent this stupid tabs scrolling is to set a small value on this preference(accessible by typing about:config on the location bar):
browser.tabs.tabMinWidth = 12
You may also want to put the tab closing button back on the right place:
browser.tabs.closeButton = 3
I really hope to see better defaults on the next versions of Firefox, or a maybe a new Mozilla distribution with less "usability" features.
* change the preference browser.tabs.closeButton to value 3 to get the correct close button back
* change the preference browser.tabs.tabMinWidth to something like 16 or 12 to prevent the stupid tab scroller from showing with just a few tabs opened

Slashdot Mirror
I cancelled mine the day they posted this blog post stating that they are on the side of the collecting societies.
For me that was when I figured that the service was compromised and although it was fun to use it for a while it was not for me anymore.
Here are the search results for kindle books from Random House sorted by best-selling
And here is a Google Spreadsheet manually-populated with the list of titles to avoid
And the form to include new titles to that list
Happy rating!
I like it. Sounds definitely better than rev="canonical".
Although I don't agree that rel="alternate" implies a different format.
The parent is not Informative, rev in this case is correct since the resource linked is a NOT the canonical page but a short-url version of the canonical page you are currently on, so the relationship is:
page A with long URL <--is the canonical url of--- page B with short URL

Links for pages that have the current page as the canonical are the ones with rev, not rel.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#h-12.3.1 to understand.
