While it is true that the crimes committed in Russia by Sklyarov are legal in Russia, due to the nature of the Internet and that the software he wrote was distributed here in the US by him, he violated US law as well. So, according to the Laws he violated in the US, he was arrested here in the US.
This US, is it the same country that violated Russian law in gathering evidence by accessing a system without prior authorization or permission of the local (Russian) authorities?
Sklyarov did nothing wrong in Russia. If he did something wrong in Russia that was against the law or principles in our country, then the US should file a complaint with the Russian government. They should have left the man alone, or at least threaten his employers (sanctions, lawsuit, etc). But we shouldn't forget that this was Adobe's fault, who started the mess.
Otherwise, every woman who visited Saudi Arabia might get stoned to death for wearing a bikini in Florida. Stupid analogy, I know, but it's the best I have right now.
I think it would benefit you not just physically, but also emotionally if you made your body available to the Open Source developer community. Their social integrity, hard work, and yoga expertise would enable to reach those goals you've had since Thanksgiving '96.
It is vital that developers allow the Open Source developer community to dictate their diet, physical exercise regiment, and holistics. Their experience will allow to gain a physique similar to Atlas, Ferrigno, or a trim body like Woody Allen.
Only when we realize the perverse writings of Suzanne Sommers are misguiding the children of our generation, can we free the stranglehold that Starbucks has on society.
I think it would benefit the researchers all of the world, if Gridwars was made available to the Open Source developer community. Their long-term vision and thoroughness would be beneficial to all parties in symbiotic relationship.
The Open Source developer community would be able to enhance Gridwars by ensuring that it would be compile correctly on all iterations of Red Hat, adding Beowulf cluster support, and hot-swap floppy capability. These are functionalities that are required in the corporate and academic world, where 99.999% uptime is almost mandatory. Except for online banking which only required a 67% uptime according to federal law.
Only by publishing their code to the world can be enhance Telegard BBS doors such Global Wars and Tradewars.
I am just taken aback that these drivers are not Open Source. The Open Source developer community would have a lot to contribute to these drivers; they could enhance the performance, add new functionality, and make them more robust. Their dedication and insightful would allow the chip makers to reach new markets.
It bothers me that corporations cannot see the long-term benefits that the Open Source developer community has to offer. It's a vast market and when it comes to high-quality graphics it's making inroads in an area dominated by SGI and the Amiga.
Only when we unleash the power of Open Source can we convince Matrox to decrease the retail price of the Parphelia.
Articles such as these, just make me mad. Why do people have to conform in society in order to be accepted? Why can't we leverage from richness in variety within our organizational fabric in order to attain greater heights intellectually?
Different points of view are important for progress in technology and science. It's absolutely vital that we continue to nourish the development of the nerdy kid in the dimly lit basement playing Star Wars galaxies. It's more valuable to have him focus on this activity than to obtain social skills that will just hamper him in the pursuit of his research once he completes his post-graduate degree.
I say, bring back the pale geek! Cherish him! Protect him! Buy him the latest Everquest expansion pack! But do not send him out in the wild where he, God forbid, has to interact with other people. They're are a precious resource and should be treated as such.
I think Mr Oppenheim could surpass his previous accomplishments by making Freenet available to the Open Source developer. Their dedication and long-term would be vital for the growth of such a peer-to-peer network on a global scale within an extended period of time.
The RIAA obviously sees Freenet as dangerous threat bigger then when it encountered the file-attachment Network in Zambia or the "Open FTP" criminal ring in lower-Slovakia. The Open Source developer community would be an impartial moderator in this long-term battle while adding support for BSD and Ogg Vorbis.
Only when create a global database of international ID3 tags can we overcome the low quality musical output from BMG.
I think that Adobe could produce a lot of good by making the source code available to the Open Source developer community. With their insight and years of experience, they could extend Premiere on the Mac with new functionality, permitting it to reach new heights.
There is still a lot of room for growth for Premiere on the Mac, such IPTables support, Ogg Vorbis extensions, and Cisco PIX emulation of a RS232 interface with a BNC connector. These are the features that most power-users yearn for. Final Cut Pro is a good tool, but somewhat overpriced.
Only when we fight the short-sightness of Adobe can we improve the digital key signature in PDFs.
We rolled out IE5.01 using the IEAK (Internet Explorer Administration Kit). It would be a great thing if one could customize Mozilla in straight-foward manner for corporate deployments.
I think that the designs implemented could be further enhanced by having the blueprints and patents available to the Open Source developer community. Their dedication and strict attention to detail would allow these corporations to tap into new markets.
We must consider what the impact on the global market that these products will have. Will they be able to reduce the inflation while increasing the gross national product? Only with a strong currency can a country have a voice.
By communication with its neighbors, any country can forge alliances and trade agreements that increase its population's well-being. Their health is one valuable asset when one wants to compete against some of the established powers.
Medical progress in turn will be accelerated by the sharing the knowledge and a strong investement in R&D. Only then can we liberate the world from all the ails and diseases.
So in summary, if the patents are made open source, we can probably find a cure for cancer.
I think it would benefit the Open Source developer community if the minutes of the conference were made public. That would enhance the understanding that the hundreds of millions of Java developers throughout the world have of Java.
We need to be more agressive in building the respect and visibility of Java in the corporation. Only by doing so can we establish the necessary paradigm to determine the direction that the IT world, nay, the society in general has to take.
It makes me mad when I look across the look and see the cookie-cutter drones that spout Windows drivel without questioning their origins and more importantly their destinies.
Why must we live such a drab and empty existence? Why can't we challenge authority figures and build a better tomorrow. Not by force, mind you, but by knowledge. It is the only way to world peace.
So in summary, if you don't support Java, you're against world peace.

But your website is visible to (and presumably meant to be read by) all of the world. Real world analogy: if you put up signs on your front yard that are plainly visible from the public road, you can be reasonably expected to take some responsibility of its content. If you take them inside your house nobody cares what you put on them.
Very good point.
I wonder if I put a disclaimer on my web site saying, "Before you enter my site you have to agree that nothing that you read or find on this site will influence your opinions on anything.", if that would help me bypass this law?
Since people would have to agree to the disclaimer prior viewing your content, it would be hard for a company to demand to have their reply posted since no one was affected by it?
You put something on your site criticizing Company X. Now Company X demands that you publish their reply, which includes a retort to your comment, but also a complaint against Corporation A.
Now does Corporation A have the right to post something on your site, considering you never even mentioned them initially?
If we could have the Open Source developer community review and improve these drivers we would not encounter any problems with them. The experience and integrity of the Open Source developer community would be vital for the consumer to take Nvidia cards seriously in the market.
Benchmarks would reflect the actual performance of the card instead of skewing the results in order to garner favorable reviews.
Only when we allow Nvidia to see the benefits of Open Source can we free the graphic benchmark software from the clutches of Matrox.
Won't this take away from the retail MP version? I'm not in the habit of looking into a gift horse's mouth, just wondering...
It would be nice if they released a new single-player campaign. There aren't that many good SP maps out there and I've really enjoyed playing the SP version of RCTW.
Well, you do have a point, but I fear that in this case an office such as this will just fall prey to special interests as usual. Lobbyists always get their way, regardless if we have the Democrats or Republicans in power. The difference is that one group is in denial and the other just doesn't care.
How can company proceed to do its business while blatantly lying to its customers!!??
Oh wait, my medication just kicked in. It's just business as usual. I will just go on checking my MSN e-mail, while watching MSNBC, drinking my Coke and eating my McDonalds burger.
What would you say is the line where someone's activity could be considered "unauthorized access"?

Actually, that could be a good thing. It may lead to a deployment of Mozilla within an organization that has resources secured by MS server packages (IIS, SQL Server, etc).
In my opinion this shows the Mozilla team being a bit more agressive in making inroads into the corporate (sometimes MS-dominated) world. Good for them.
