I dont't see any open source competitor for blender any time soon. blender already has quite a lot of features, not to mention game engine and other tools. plug the fact that it's light weight, fast and cross platform. (while maintaining the same UI everywhere.) blender may have some old cruft every here and there. but it doesn't really bother me.
so what do these are "not yet here" apps offer me?
how about talking to microsoft first before submitting this "standard"... If we can get all major browsers to agree on the spec it might atleast be usefull from a cross platform perspective. other then that, xhtml + css does everything I need right now.
a well, In my view on the world ethics are relative anyway. new times, new technology, new ethics. And, If as you claim there is going to be a slow progression then it will most likely blend naturally into our culture without that much trouble. perhaps changing eye color will become (in a social sense) something like dying hair, or perhaps we will use cybernettic brainpatches so we can access all librarybooks right from our brains. but you know, It doesn't really matter that much. I remember a few years back when we were sitting in a bar and on the other side there was a group of french people who were wildly showing each other there mobile phones and what they could do with it, we where sitting there and none of us had a mobile phone, and most people of the group i was width, thought it was very arrogant behaviour, and now a few years later everyone of them is doing the same, and everyone things it is normal behaviour! I think it will go the same route with these kind of enhancements, and who knows, perhaps it isn't that bad to be something that isn't human by our standards.
just like the samba team, I don't think that this agreement with microsoft will bring good fruits. what I like about the open source movement is that it provides you with software that allow you to go to sleep at night without worry. the software that will result from this agreement will be everything except that.
perhaps you should give a listen to the new radio show at www.lugradio.org according to the interview the portland tools where developed with feedback from what kept COMMERCIAL vendors back from entering the linux market. the target audience is nog kde or gnome application writers, those people should write programs simple the way kde or gnome does things.
linux 2.6: 3,315,274 lines of code, 0.138 / 1000 lines of code. kde: 4,518,450 lines of code, 0.012 bugs / 1000 lines of code.
based on this I would say we are doing pretty good with open source. but we shouldn't forget that this tool only scans coding errors, not coding logic.
wine for example only has 0.112 / 1000 lines of code as well. and we all know it by far doesn't always do what we want it to do.;)
jabbin 2.0beta ( http://www.jabbin.com/ ) allows you to talk to jabbin users. I also heared that kopete has experimental jingle support, but that not very usable yet..
I recently discoffered jabbin. http://www.jabbin.com/int/ it's free as in speech, and has voip support. perhaps he should give it a try. there are windows, linux and mac releases.
well, he COULD have told them that it was an ipod he lost in there just to hide the fact that it actually was a bom. he was already spotted, so he would have nothing to lose, and this would have been a nice trick to persuade the personel to just keep going.
I think they did the right thing by investigating it. (for as far as there are any right things when it comes to terrorism)
if you look at the coverity site ( http://scan.coverity.com/ ) you will see that there are already multiple projects who have brought there bugs down to zero. samba being on of the earliest.
Geek B get's to fix his machine again...
naturally he is telling you that there is an added 6ms to the response time on your server WHILE it is transfering.
you could create a lvm device on top of a raid...
don't know what it would do to performance though..

"Fact is if MSFT doesn't make the "standard" MSFT won't support it properly."
that's exactly why they should be in the standard creation team.

nfsv4 has this, with kerberos as it is quite nice, but currently also quite unstable
according to the site.. yes it can.
try the mplayer port (with basic gui)
http://mplayer.garage.maemo.org/
it is said that it runs 25/30fps when running optimized movies..
(there is a conversion script out there too..)
anyone any idea if it supports voip calls (sip or h323) ??

register an account on a jabber server that has a gadugadu backend ;)

it could be filled be proprietary modules that actually controll the hardware itself.
dupe!

they tested it by using a program that systemattically scans code for common errors.
I don't know if the closed source statistics are online somewhere, but these are the open source statistics.

and if you ask me the "Defect Reports / KLOC" is pretty low, and such software would normally be considered "good" software.
that many of the bugs found by coverity have already been fixed.
"allows you to talk to jabbin users." has to be "allows you to talk to google talk users."...
