Does anyone know if i can recover ?
This is a bitch to some of us with lots of websites!
Damn!
Why didn't they warn. I didn't delete the folder either ! Shit.
Do you trust Sun ? They are excellent at manipulating the media.
Sun is doing this for themselves so they can 'hype' more java news on all the internet news sources(zdnet,cnet,slash) and also pull more people into their language(prosyletize) so that they can cash in.
Tv is dead . Less people are watching it. Convergence of LARGE high res monitors,computers and consoles and high speed net. Now if Kerry gets elected watch for the 100 megabit cable to your home.
Like a wireless network instead of 'broadcasting' which is outdated. Broadcasting is old school and is a waste of time. We need a public longdistance wifi network.

Q&A re:
SCO vs. IBM by Lawrence Rosen General Counsel, Open Source Initiative*
The following questions and answers were prepared by the author at the request of the Open Source Development Lab (OSDL) as a result of intellectual property issues arising in the wake of SCO Group's lawsuit against IBM. This position paper is intended by the author to calm some of those uncertainties. Filed a few months ago, SCO's lawsuit against IBM has rankled the Linux community and disconcerted its users. Much of the worry is caused by press exaggeration. Not many lawsuits, and certainly not this one, deserve to be called the "trial of the century." SCO vs. IBM should not be over-rated. It is a contract dispute between two companies with deep pockets, both of whom are prepared to send their attorneys into battle to protect their reputations and their economic interests. SCO is seeking lots of money from IBM and IBM refuses to pay. SCO obviously wants to force IBM's hand, and that accounts for at least some of the tactical moves being undertaken by SCO and its allies to stir up fear among Linux customers. IBM has responded with a countersuit, and now Red Hat has entered the fray to defend Linux and the right of the open source community to distribute that operating system to users worldwide. The entire situation must seem very murky to those of you not following it intently. These questions and answers may help you understand what's happening.
Q: Is this a lawsuit against Linux? A:No. This is a lawsuit by SCO against IBM, with counterclaims by IBM against SCO. SCO claims money damages for breach of confidentiality and the disclosure of its Unix-related trade secret information to the public. IBM and SCO had an agreement to work together on IBM's AIX operating system. SCO alleges that, when IBM changed its business strategy and refocused its efforts on Linux, IBM disclosed SCO's *Attribution Notice: Lawrence Rosen is founding partner of Rosenlaw & Einschlag, a technology law firm, with offices in Los Altos Hills and Ukiah, California (www.rosenlaw.com). He serves also as general counsel and secretary of Open Source Initiative (www.opensource.org), which reviews and approves open source licenses and educates the public about open source issues. While this paper is written by an attorney, you are not my client and I am not intending this to be legal advice. You are encouraged to show this article to your attorney and obtain his or her independent advice about how to proceed. This paper was written at the request of the Open Source Development Lab (OSDL). The content of this paper and the opinions expressed herein are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of OSDL or its members. Page 2 confidential technical information. That confidential information, they assert, ultimately found its way into Linux. IBM denies all of SCO's material allegations. Recently IBM filed a countersuit against SCO alleging, among other things, that SCO is infringing some IBM patents, a move on IBM's part to put its strategic patent portfolio to defensive use. As this Q&A paper is written, the SCO vs. IBM litigation is still in its early stages. If this were a typical federal civil lawsuit, it would probably continue for 12-18 months and then settle before trial. But this case is such a public event that it may linger for a while before resolving itself at the end with either a defense judgment or with money changing hands. This lawsuit, with its claims and counter-claims, is at heart a legal dispute between those two companies over money. The Linux operating system itself, and its contributors, distributors and users, are not parties to this litigation and cannot be directly affected by it. But the indirect effects are being felt. The real problem for Linux and open source is not the lawsuit itself, but that the SCO vs. IBM case is creating confusion and doubt among Linux users.
They mentioned it can be dirty. Doesn't have to be nuclear fission for me to call it Nuclear.
I am sure the NORTH KOREANS are reading the same website as well as the USA's favorite job producer China.
Ben Afflec,Matt Damon garbage. Can't stand those guys. Wheres J Lo ? God....I am gonna puke.

Alot posts are being censored. Slashdot is sucking again. Metamoderate All overzealot moderators!!!!!
Take the Slashdot filters off and look at all the comments. Slashdot has become speech unfriendly. We need a real alternative .
Do any of you ever ask yourselves why now?
Do you trust Sun ? They are excellent at manipulating the media.

Microsoft and Sun both proselytize.

Mirrored display would be ideal for outdoors.
What about the Indian offshoring column ?
That was damn truthful. Where have you read reasons for that anywhere else ?
love his articles. Lots of foresight and sees the core of the problems.

These kind of scopes are long and slender and rotate and act like a much larger scope .
