The problem I see with this is that we're using module X which is standard perl license, but module X uses module Y which is AGPL. So we have hidden license violation, because you're using AGPL module, though indirectly. This situation can uncover in many months after deployment. So now you not only check license of modules, but also all dependencies. Which could be PITA in any even middle-scale project.
What really disturbs me is that if someone makes use of, say Perl modules, released under AGPL, even if you're not directly using them, and not even aware, this makes all your custom app code AGPL too? Or this is LGLP-like license, where you can freely use LGPL libraries and keep custom code private? Can someone explain if this is going to happen?
How interesting: according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_garriot He's now General British in Tabula Rasa. Also he's going to fly to ISS as space tourist very soon. Pretty exciting stuff.
I have huge respect and appreciation for this guy. Perhaps for guys who are around 30 as me, UO is the first and only MMORPG played. Everything other is just "not there". Unfortunately I have grown out of MMORPGs and have better things to do with my time and life. Still I remember how much fun it was and I certainly miss that fun. If the guy manages to spark my obsession for defending virtues and building my character/interacting with other ppl again, I'll be very glad. We'll see. Glad to hear that Richard Garriot is back to MMORPG production again. Certainly this benefits all. Keep up with good work, Lord British!
I suspected this for years, when circa 2003 I ran whois query/dns searches on short and very meaningful domain in.com, just perfect to suit my needs, which was registered 1 week later! Guess wh was the registrar? Some squatter. After that I just go and register domain in 1 transaction - using registration form as whois/dns lookup and then immediately check out. From 2003 I registered 4 domains and this rule worked pretty well. Also I have one story when one not so expensive registrar just snatched domain from legitimate user. This is scary stuff. All registration are electronic, which means you even don't have a paper about domain is yours. I guess all we can do is to bring as much attention to these cases as possible.
Didn't you think that you're free to chose another party instead of moaning about your current. Also they have god given right to have beliefs they like.
Very interesting tip, thanks. I thought it was fixed in nt4. Seems like it's not. I'll try this when I'll be locked out of my workstation (probably never).
Yeah, right... If you didn't get proper training and even didn't read a book on it, that means it's not ready for prime time. What a comfortable attitude.
Although it's obviously a flamebait, he has some points. It's genetic desease. So what if "cured" man wants to have offspring? Will his children need the same operation too? Who gonna pay for that?
Isn't it the same Estonia which praises and builds memorials for Waffen-SS legionaires? And where russian minority (20%) is considered as non-citizens and cannot vote? Democratic elections my ass.
I guess you're just a troll. But in case you just don't know anything about the subject, here's the tip: You cannot run precompiled x86 debian apps on ARM.

So it's a lot like beowulf cluster of bees, right?
.. used on Uranus :)?
Can't resist.

100% breaking IT policy is more accurate estimate ;-)
Never set stupid policy and none want to break it!

Wondering this guy has big orange beak attached to the front to his helmet and white parachute as his paunch. Would be sexy
masturbation reduces the risk of everything actually :) yes, everything... the risk of having sex too ;-)

That's why they put "Wearing costume doesn't make you fly" warning on Superman costumes.

Nevermind that my company used vmware for exactly the same purpose you describe here for 6 years already.
>> The whole office was relying on one domain controller which was dying.
We want to see netcraft reports for that!

I've read your post and now I'm addicted to learning about addiction to information...
You know you are evil, do you?

Now let's fly over there and find out ;-)
I've been updating my rh8 servers from fedoralegacy for about 2 years... rh9 for 1 year... So what are you talking about, again?
