OpenBSD is built using gcc 4.2, which is getting old by now. While being old isn't an indication of being bad or wrong, is there any concrete plan to either upgrade the base compiler, replace it with clang or some other compiler ?
It's quite simple, there is a vast overproduction of games. People will only buy so many games, and when there's just too many games, eventually some of the producers will have to throw in the towel.
Which is good for the ones that survives, as they have a greater chance of turning a profit again.
That's assuming those small games would make a profit. Do you have any backup that such small games would sell well enough to turn a profit. (Other than "I like small fun games, so they must sell well !")
Remember now, that most things in Plan 9, which the above discusses, has for the most parts a textual interface. It's radically different from the (Icon based) GUIs one knows from e.g. Mac which Pike & co. didn't have high regards for..

In what way is Fedora NOT that ? I have long since jumped from RH 9 to Fedora. It's the same continuing spirit, just a diffrent name. Plese explain.
What's innovative about that ? It's a browser. People have done browsers for a long time, and firefox didn't invent the web, nothing new. Sure Firefox has some nice bits here and there, by all means, but very innovative ? No.
Bittorrent, that's somewhat innovative. So is perhaps the Speex codec.
In Fedora (and future RHEL), lots of things are moving from the installation to the firstboot(and some things are assumed to be configure by the user now). The system-config-authentication is the same as (will be) in RHEL, Fedora just just a step or two in front of the current RHEL.)

They could read http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Mouse_vs._k eyboard/index.html
for counter arguments. Ofcourse, as the tty/line based input interfaces on *nix, the mouse might do that much for applications such as vim/emacs as they are today.
There is a simple fix.
Get the hell away from the C++ madness.
Oh pffft, if it was used in a film trick, what idiotic news
is it when someone makes it real ?
Who knows what relics of the past one might unleash(!)
It may very well surviving pieces from the plague that haunted The Ancients
Simple request, anyone got at mirror for the now dead link
to the PDF ?
Well, the kernel could just block till it is done sending, thus
sending it straight from the userspace supplied buffer.
Doing so may ofcurse have other affects though.

Ok, color me ignorant, but, is there an opensource delphi compiler
available ?
Still they(NASA) shipped off a couple of rovers to Mars. Running vxWorks.
Ick. Not to mention all the required math.
Perhaps they're educating level/graphics designers and modellers.
45 weeks sounds not so bad then.

galeon uses gecko, so no need for testing that.
Including dillo (and the graphical version of links) in the benchmark would be interresting though.

Nope.

I'm sure there should be a 50% waiting for RAM rather. :-(
Gah, ram is SLOW
I'll second this. While scons doesn't solve every damn problem, it's
much easier to use over make.
I'm not going to look back.
someone drops a bag of money on my head ?
Thats a mainly a /. thing. Now, much of usenet users may be dorks, but /. users in that respect :-)
there is NO match fot

Why "assume" that ?
Joining AD with fedora is trivial, and is basically the same as in RHEL.
Well, from win2k Kerberos is used in windows, so lots of sites actually
use it...
