I thought all 3NF were by definition also 1NF and 2NF . That each normal form above one added a *additional* requirement. 1NF each enity occurrence have a fixed number of single-valued attributes. 2NF is 1NF plus each nonkey attribute in a enity be fully dependent on the entire primary key 3NF each nonkey attribute in a enity be fully dependent on the entire primary key and nothing but the primary keys I wont define Boyce/Codd normal form(BCNF), 4NF, or 5NF here. However usually if you got it to 3NF than it's typically also in 5NF.
I thought I'd promote my fingerprint Imaging software. And also mention that this seems kind of bogus. Like others have mentioned none of the terrorists of 911 faked their identities and faking fingerprint with gelatin has been done.
I like that some thing like a change of address thing is what is really needed. Actualy If you extend foaf(friend of a friend) to include information on when your email box was associated with you. You can then let the search engines take care of the rest, for the most part. Think distributed addressbook.

I am making Free Fingerprint Imaging Software and have added you link. I also have the gelatin Artificial Gummy Fingers, link. And a link to Bruce Schneier saying Biometrics are unique identifiers, but they are not keys or secrets
I think that biometrics by themselves can be badly misused and have things end up being worse.
I think that Bruce has said something like a false sense of security is worse then no security.
Intrinsicly fingerprints can only provide collabarating evidence if and only if some proper proceduces are in place. Washbins at border crossings might be amusing;-> Another thing though is that for example the 911 people didn't use fake ID, so what was the point again anyway?
I think that banks using fingerprints on their customers when the open accounts etc, DMV when people get ID, seems more likely. Only real things I worry about is what about when the Justice system fails and people have legitament reasons to hide; What about stalkers, wife beaters,etc; What about the witness protection program, secret agents, etc;-> The government would have real problems getting proper cover stories for people if biometric information on people was widespread.
I don't know why they are pushing it as much, it might actually end up hurting them more than it helps.
Strictly speaking the ratio must be 1/1 if you take things pedanticly. Proof same for all groups large or small so it is same ratio for groups that are of size equal to prime numbers. so for example 7 and 11. so a/7 == b/11 so 0/7 == 0/11 and 7/7 == 11/11 works but he implied greater than 0 and a/7=b/11 , 11a =7b, a=(7/11)*b and 7/11 or p1/p2 doesn't reduce so you can't get other ratio's within the range of 0=r=1
Actually the proof that the prime numbers series is infinite is trivial. Suppose it is finite then you take all those numbers, multiple them together add 1 and opps that number isn't a interger multiple of any prime so far and thus is prime or has prime number factors greater than what is in your set so far. Add more numbers to your set of primes even. rinse lather repeat. for example 2 3 gives 7
2 3 5 7 gives 211
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31... 199 211 gives you yet bigger prime(s) next finite series of prime number = biggest prime so far yet bigger prime

No it was discussed earlier on slashdot even. Basicly I think it is not too much of a problem. You can even speed up the check by not even doing a look up on those domains and just scoring the same as if it were a nonexistant domain name. You probly would actually do it as a whitelist of conforming domain systems.
I think that your suggestion on document format standards is good especially if you add a few provisos: 1) like the old IETF require at least two interoperable implementations(bonus points if you require at leastone of the implementations license to meet debian or opensource.org license criteria) 2) No patent restrictions
I also don't see to as an either/or proposition. Require them to document the standard and port their apps. I think them porting would have good effects as that would require them to learn howto live in more restrictive environs. They can be more sandboxed. I think just having to compete on a more even bases on a platform were others supply the kernel and libs would be good for them.
I think that what the authors wanted to accomplish with requiring porting the apps to other platforms was to make MS be more modular in their programming practices. They talked a lot about monoculture but also adding featues and using "intergration" to enforce their monopoly position. Like:
MS... added complex code to it's OS not because of necessity but because it ties people to there platform. pg. 4 Tight intergration... violates core teaching of software engineering. pg. 13
They made that suggestion to counter these concerns, I believe. Plus porting various apps to other platforms can help challenge some of it's assumptions. Like that/home/foo/my_documents/email_attach.jpg.exe can be executed../home/ might have been mounted noexec
OpenOffice will... I heard that some people are saying that it is easier to do in openoffice than in word. In a slashdot article a few days ago people someone even said that they scipted some xml to openoffice to pdf convertor thing.
Resident however there is more.
That law says:
"California electronic mail address" or "California e-mail address" means any of the following:
(1) An e-mail address furnished by an electronic mail service provider that sends bills for furnishing and maintaining that e-mail address to a mailing address in this state.
(2) An e-mail address ordinarily accessed from a computer located in this state.
(3) An e-mail address furnished to a resident of this state.
So you can either be a resident, or have a computer located in california access the email and then forward it to another machine;-> or set up someone to get your email bill in california and either forward the bill to you or have them pay for it for you.
According to this legislation: "Unsolicited commercial e-mail advertisement" means a commercial e-mail advertisement sent to a recipient who meets both of the following criteria:
(1) The recipient has not provided direct consent to receive advertisements from the advertiser.
(2) The recipient does not have a preexisting or current business relationship...
and "Direct consent" means that the recipient has expressly consented to receive e-mail advertisements from the advertiser, either in response to a clear and conspicuous request for the consent or at the recipient's own initiative.
You don't have a preexisting business relationship. I don't know if his email message had commercial content. I don't know what you web page that listed you email address had written on it.
However if his email had commercial content, even if it's your product and you didn't express written terms that he could write you back; then I quess it could be considered "Unsolicited commercial e-mail advertisement"
Well you could write up an RFC with an optional extension to request close matches. There already exist NXT records for use in DNSSEC. I believe that the added it so that you could send these records to prove where gaps were without having the private key stored in the name server etc etc.
For the amazonbookstore problem the browser could ask for the NXT record and use the results to build up a list of near lexicol ordering domains. If course the squaters might register amazona... amazonz.
What you want with soundex or whatever would best met with a extension maybe a request of QW(quess what) that returns results that are best quess of what you meant. There are problems of defining what maximum return size is, how to choose google over altavista DNS severs, etc. And I think most DNS severs would not turn on QW resolves because of possible resource usage.
Antway at best you need new request type or use NXT request type, istead of neutering error codes.
If spamers start using.museum or other two-letter country code TLDs then spam filters can use a white list of TLD that return proper responces. If the domain isn't in the list then you can up it's score; plus it will save you the need to do a real domain lookup.
No it is not strictly backwards compatible. There are a few areas where they a strictly conforming c program will either not compile or give different results if compiled as if it were a c++ program. Obviously c++ keywords in a c program would give different results. There are also other things like the value of sizeof('x') . Is it 1 or 4? There are somethings were being more verbose explicit can lessen the differenrces. is f() interpreted as void f(void) or int f(...)

for example
2 3
gives 7
2 3 5 7
gives 211
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31
gives you yet bigger prime(s)
next finite series of prime number = biggest prime so far
yet bigger prime
They should have set up a bittorent for this one.
