What is with this problem people have with RedHat? The configuration management choices they made may seem unique, but after having managed quite a few systems with it, I really wish they would push harder for wider adoption of those idioms.
I'll admit it, I like RedHat's/etc/rc.d system. It ties in with pcmcia, networking and wlan-ng quite nicely. I almost wish their SysV style scripts and tools (chkconfig, svc,/etc/init.d/functions, ifcfg-[dev], etc.) were used by more distros. I guess I've been tainted by working with Solaris, but I enjoy that method. It makes adding and removing services easy and clean (no editing files for most stuff). And when I miss slackware (I used to run it) I can always add stuff to the/etc/rc.local and friends if necessary.
I used to hate RPM, but I've come to appreciate it since most everything comes packaged as such, and the tool is rather powerful once you figure out how the hell to use it. Plus, those loonies at PLD give us i686 optimized software in RPM form of all the latest stuff that RedHat hasn't battle tested. This I cannot ignore! I agree RPM tends to break on the kernel, but then I always install the latest kernel right after an install so I don't think about it. And a new stable kernel version later, a make oldconfig isn't too hard... I've never installed a kernel any other way, what's hard about doing it "manually"?
Don't know much about Debian, except that it has definitely moved on to 2.4 and Xfree 4.x
We managed to create a virtual machine that is the superset of the.NET CLR and the JVM. This super-vm can compile straight into machine code for IA-32 and Itanium, and it can do it dynamically in realtime through profiling. It also has a bunch of different optimizers and garbage collectors it can pick from.
All this is implemented in C++. They use opensource class libraries to provide the classpaths.
What I would find really cool is if they can release a microcode-based CPU that runs the superset bytecode. It may simply be a microcode patch to the Itanium. That would be truely wicked.
The only place to get real up-to-the-minute support for hardware is the many mailing lists dedicated to various projects.
Search google for lists or list plus:
linux-wlan, linux-usb, gatos, v4l etc...
Main developers for a hardware series have mailing lists. More often than not, you can actually get their attention that way (or at least, get an issue out there).
I have had good success with the linux-wlan mailing lists for doing weird things with wireless cards in the past (granted they were all prism2 cookie-cutter). But the spirit is the same.
What I find is that because creating drivers for devices in linux can be so difficult, you really need a web page dedicated to the task. Because of this, we won't see a central site for driver development. The only centralization happens when they get chosen for bundling with the kernel.
I never thought we could have something like this (sarcasm).
In other news, there's about 15 inches of snow and rising outside my house and its starting to get on my nerves. If you live in DC metro area, scrap any plans for the next two days. That includes going to Microcenter.

How will you power your wearable computers, palm pilots, pacemakers even? Blue jeans and denim jackets that generate electricity. This has potential, because as we all know, denim never goes out of style. I wonder what the care instructions will say...
RFC 2487: SMTP Service Extension for Secure SMTP over TLS.
SMTP [RFC-821] servers and clients normally communicate in the clear over the Internet.... Further, there is often a desire for two SMTP agents to be able to authenticate each others' identities. For example, a secure SMTP server might only allow communications from other SMTP agents it knows, or it might act differently for messages received from an agent it knows than from one it doesn't know.
How dare you write such a tantalizing review!

You insensitive clod! You mock my horrible predictament; having many books to read for class leaving no time for consuming others for pleasure.
Is there some way this book could be shoehorned into a self-becoming philsophical angle? Because then I could justify reading it for a paper.

There are too many of these virtual machine implementations lying around. You've got perl, rep, lisp, ECMAscript, forth, CHIP, DREAM, GVM, Idel, IVM, spim, among others.
Also, GCC makes it trivial to write a code generator for a non-existant machine (which you write a simple emulator for), and that will pass for a.NET work alike if you bless it with built in CORBA, PVM or something like that.
Ch is an example of that concept.
There's also the.GNU project, which aims to target the same market as.NET and Enterprise Java.
So uh.. what's wrong with Mono now? Should we stop Samba too and invent the new CIFS?
I will patent and algorithm that will translate diagrams and pseudocode into piles of piles of patent speak.
Then I will run the code on itself, and file it!
It doesn't sound too complicated; all the people I've met who are in IP seem to be simple minded folk. I live next door to 2 of them and neither of them have got the Interweb (sic) figured out yet.
You know I can copy all their code, and make all the changes I want at any time.
So some other VC funded entity could pick up their work, make a few changes, and call it something else. But they'd also have to GPL it (what a shame).
So then there'd be two. Repeat, ad infinitum. Ximian just gets to be the "original guys" to provide a cross-platform implementation. And IBM won't buy, they'd repackage it too (with a kickback for IBM guided improvements)
Methinks you misunderstand the purpose and functionality of the GPL license.

If it could be useful against spam, the same argument can be turned against you and be made to prevent deep linking, etc.
Your email address is a simple URL, and the email becomes an access_log entry. The spam protection is a referral-link + user-agent check.
