I don't care if they are blind or not. They seem to me like a bunch of spoiled-rotten punk-asses. Who cares if they can crack this-and-that? Does being blind make it more 1337? This is probably the worst article I have read - and has no value or relevance to me.
He maintains the kernel. There is a lot more of what he does that the interview clearly does not touch upon. It's demanding to be a maintainer. It requires a lot of time, good communication, and motivation.
Lets' see if you can do this. Better yet, let's see if you are even asked to do this.
BION, this year, most of my gift wish lists inlude non-geeky items. I needed a change. I have items on my lists like workplace clothing, a jacket, CD's, etc.
I thought it would be nice for me to get non-geeky stuff for a change...
I thought the same thing at first...but it actually does lots of good.
Our CIO made a certain IM client standard throughout the company, and all tech folks are *required* to have an IM account.
We find ourselves using it more often than not. For example, our HQ is in CA, and our Data Center is in MN. Instant messenging comes in handy while working on remote projects, troubleshooting, etc. We have a *ton* of remote offices with folks in them.
I don't know about you, but I am not much of a "phone person", and I find IM to be somewhat of a "happy medium" between phone and email.
Disregard my previous comment...
I found Fedora's errata policy:
Q:
What is the errata policy for The Fedora Project?
A:
Security updates, bugfix updates, and new feature updates will all
be available, through Red Hat and third parties. Updates may be staged
(first made available for public qualification, then later for general
consumption) when appropriate. In drastic cases, we may remove a package
from The Fedora Project if we judge that a necessary security
update is too problematic/disruptive to the larger goals of the project.
Availability of updates should not be misconstrued as support for anything
other than continued development and innovation of the code base.
Red Hat will not be providing an SLA (Service Level Agreement) for
resolution times for updates for The Fedora Project. Security
updates will take priority. For packages maintained by external parties,
Red Hat may respond to security holes by deprecating packages if the
external maintainers do not provide updates in a reasonable time. Users
who want support, or maintenance according to an SLA, may purchase the
appropriate Red Hat Enterprise Linux product for their use.
You'd be surprised.
At work, we are on an Exchange mail/scheduling backend, and since I don't have Windows, I run Outlook under Wine - some of the time.
Most of the time, I just use Outlook Web Access in my browser.
Remember, they freeze the packaging and development trees when it's considered "stable". Unfortunately, Samba 3.0, etc. was released prior to the freeze.
Don't fret, as I'm certain there will be contrib RPMs for these soon.
Dear, "Jeez"
Bad advice, because:
1. I asked a specific question, and you beat around the bush. If you can't answer a direct question, ITFQ.
2. I am outside a lot, so your advice is invalid - and you don't know me.
3. If you were trying to be funny, well...I'll leave it up to the rest of the readers to judge your humor.

What are you nuts?!?! This is Slashdot!

Although, I cannot find any mention of the sort on the Fedora website.

What happened? I STRONGLY URGE that complaints be made to ICANN and the US DoC...right now.
This is so much worse than many folks think.
going to be a distraction while driving...no matter what.
Doesn't look like it integrates with Palm OS devices, as Evolution does (and some other KDE PIM apps).
...remember, is that if it were not for OUR US gov't, they wouldn't have *EMAIL* in the first damn place!
GPS has been used in farming for a decade, and is fantastic for saving $$$ on fertilizers (liquid) and other farming tasks.
hehehehe... exactly!
...have been on Ritchie's site for a L O N G time. You just notice now? What kind of UN*X hacker are you!?!
Analogizing drugs and Open Source is 13-year-old crap, and I'm sure ESR and others will have a ball with this.
Nice going SCO. Thanks for proving (in "graphic" detail) what kind of corporation you truly represent.
Use CVS. It's proven, easy to learn/use, and it's open.
Many businesses do this. They rely on new customers, not repeat-customers. Kinda like BMG music, etc. This isn't rocket science.
