    It might be as made up as mine for one, the other thing is that jokes are funny, but not allways all that insightful, the joke works both ways as you see.

    Wikipedia nothing more than a place for people to congregate and write about whatever they find is worth writing about. You don't think that he does not deserve an Wikipedia article, that's fine don't look it up, but if the article is factualy correct you have nothing to complain about (fix it if it isn't :-). If I wanted to know who Dave Hyatt is (if I read about him somewhere like /. first) and whoever wrote the article propably felt the same and ensured that I find what I am looking for. Anyway, do you have any evidence about the article beeing from Dave Hyatt himself or are you just full of yourself.

    Speaking about David Hyatt, why does he have a Wikipedia entry?
    Because someone wrote one.

    From the LGPL:
    "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.
    So if CVS is the preferred form for making modifications for Apple developers...

    Yes we know already everything men do is sexist if it involves, is for or is about women (at least someone will always claim is). That is because (as it is commonly known) all women are personalities and all men are mindless sex machines (all exactly the same). For some strange reason (and despite the fact that all women are different) when women statistically are not interested or good at something (like science or games) it must be because of their upbringing and the society. It's easy with men: whenever they do something in accord with what their upbringing and society says (women are fragile, they must be protected and taken care of) it is certainly because they are men who want to keep the women as powerless sex slaves.

    Those are all common known, proven facts (it's sexist to say otherwise as well!) so you don't need to bring it up every single time. Thank you.
