#1 It is "Patent". #2 You misunderstand the implications of Software Patents.
You are correct though, that using the GPL can complicate the situation. However, if the authors of the GPL software desire their code to be only used with those stipulations, then that is their right; your inconvenience doesn't diminish their rights.
All it means is that future releases will be in X.Y.Z format. X will mean a change to the API breaking old plugins, Y is any other change, and Z is pretty much meaningless.
You obviously are trying to be flamebait, but in addition you are severely confused - J2EE Container Managed Transactions are extremely effective, going beyond simple database transactions and extending to application transactions, where several different types of entities can be rolled back (e.g. Message Queues) in addition to database transactions.
You can't get the binary w/o a subscription; so the conditions under which you can get the binary and the source are the same. If you can legally obtain a binary, then you also have access to the source.
There are no additional restrictions to the GPL code.
As a subscriber (for a fee) you may have access to GPL'd binaries and source.
If you redistribute the binary, you must also make the source available (under the GPL). However by doing so, you nullify the subscriber agreement. This has no effect on any binaries & source that you have downloaded so far; those are still licensed to you under the GPL. The only effect that the termination of the subscription will have is that you will no longer be able to download binaries from Sveasoft.
GPL code does not mean that "i have the right to have it", it only means that if you give/sell the compiled code to me, you must also provied the source.
A similar example would be RedHat terminating your up2date account because you violated the terms of service. It is irrelevant that up2date was downloading GPL binaries - you just won't have access to their mechanism for providing them.
A tiny minority of Muslims might actually believe anything remotely near to what you say.
The Israel situation has got absolutely nothing to to with "resisting conversion"... that is fundamentalist christian bullshit. It is to do with occupation, repression and desparation....To further extend the wasp analogy, the "RAID" is causing honey bees to mutate into angry wasps.
You are correct that libj2k avoids jasper's licensing issues, howeverm i'd just like to point out that it isn't GPL, rather it is released under a (GPL compatible) BSD license.
gaim-vv's modified libj2k will probably be released under a GPL license in the future, but currently, it is under the original license.
Ok, 90% of them, big difference. The fact remains he gave money to those who committed terrorist acts in order to gain the favor of the terrorists, and gave no such 'kindness grants' to families that didn't fit their political agenda.
Once again, you are confused. You are overstating the significance of the money, and you misunderstood Saddam's motivation for paying out - it wasn't to "gain favor of terrorists" but rather to gain favor of the arab world in general. At any rate, it is insignificant.
But you do support an obvious an attempt by a mass-murdering Arab dictator to support terrorism. You are either a terrorist supporter, or a 'wacko.'
No, i don't support any attempt to fund terrorism, i think that it would have been far better for Saddam to give the money to civilian Palestinian society-building organizations, but that wouldn't have been as visible politically, so he had less to gain politically than giving to the families of suicide bombers . You also failed to mention that he also gave money to the families of Palestinians who were murdered by the IDF.
Ah, I see now, since it is reported by a company that doesn't meet your wacko filter, you can safely ignore it. You're a close-minded wacko who takes the word of Saddam Hussein at face value! What can I say?
Yeah, you got it... The WS is a propaganda machine, and i can safely ignore it. If it were a legitimate story, there would be plenty other sources, not just a WS Staff writer. I am only closed minded to closed mindedness, intolerance and bigotry, if that is what you are wondering. And no, i dont take the word of Saddam Hussein at face value, i can't imagine where you got that idea - i trust him even less than i trust my own government.
As a rule, i was not a fan of Clinton's foreign policy, but compared to Bush's he looked like a dream come true. The fundamental problem is the base assumption that as Americans, we automatically are right and everyone who disagrees is wrong. Clearly, it is you who are closed minded.
As suboptimal as any of Clinton's FP team were, Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz are are downright dangerous bloodhungry hawks. The sole voice of reason in the mix is Colin Powell, who sadly has become little more than a mask for the hawks to hide behind.
I don't even hope to convince you of any of the above, you obviously are incapable of thinking outside of the assumptions and constraints that have been instilled in you, but for your own sake, give it a try.
"Guaranteed gift" is inaccurate - true, there were some recipients, but not every suicide bomber's family was given money by Saddam.
You clearly do not understand the frustration, desperation and repression of the Palestinian people. As i have said on numerous occasions, i do not condone murder of civilians by any means - but i do understand why some Palestinian young men feel it is their only outlet. The solution to this problem is nothing to do with removing a "reward", if you want to consider it that, - the fundamental problem is the racism conducted by the state of Israel that is breeding the hatred and murder that the Israeli people are suffering from.
No, i am most certainly not "one of those wackos", i hope that some day some sort of evidence arises in order to legitimize the war - it is an extremely dangerous precedent and real evidence of ties to Al Qaeda would make me less embarrassed to be associated with all the imperialistic retoric that is streaming from my nation.
That weekly standard is a link to an article in a News Corp. publication, needless to say, it isn't worth the electrons with which it was published. You probably actually beleive that the plant that was bombed in Sudan under the Clinton adminstration was producing chemical weapons - i do not, as i am not aware of any legitimate evidence of such (only the glaringly obvious evidence of the opposite, which your article even mentions).
There is no such evidence. Saddam's regime, as terrible as it was, was a sworn enemy of Al Qaeda. Perhaps there are links to "terrorist groups", but that depends on your definition of "terrorist groups" - remember one man's "terrorist" is another's "freedom fighter".
At any rate, the alleged Al Qaeda link is a non-starter, if there really was any evidence of that, there would have been very little opposition to the war in the first place, and if new evidence surfaced "Dubya" would have a field day (b/c it would get him off the hook for the lack of WMD).
The "terrorist training camps" that you refer to were actually in the area known as "Kurdistan" where Saddam had no control in the last 12 years because of "coalition"-enforced no fly zones. Read this and be enlightened.
Don't bring Israel into the discussion here - there is nothing wrong with supporting the families of those in need - It is the lack of support and viability that creates the situation where the suicide-bomber mindset is developed.
Do you really think that people would perform suicide bombings, just so their family would get some money?
Wake up and smell the cock - get your own world view and quit relying on the closedminded imperialist neocon bullshit.
Thanks for your excellent research. If is only right that I acknowledge your effort - it seems that there is substantial evidence that this was truly one of Saddam's most awful crimes.
My initial statement still stands - he is being demonized for political gain. There was never a shred of evidence that Saddam had any links to Al Qaeda, nor that he posed any threat to the USA.
I am glad that he is gone, but the price in human life and dangerous precedents was too high.
It is the US military who is claiming that they are fighting for Saddam - i challenge you to find any instance where captured insurgents have claimed to be fighting for him.
Give me a fucking break! Rush Limbaugh? You said it yourself - "He is a somewhat biased person" (and that is putting it exceedingly mindly)
While he definitely offers a clear view on what he would like you to believe is going on in Iraq - I hope that you don't thinkthat he is reporting anything that could possibly detract from what he would like you to believe.
And a non "corporate friendly" market would be a bad thing because...?
What is wrong with using a people's society and values as the basis for their market system - or should we further our unrealistic imperialism that is destined for long-term failure.

What exactly does Pidgin do incorrectly that necessitates creating a separate workflow?

Nah... There is nothing "emergency" about it.
"Parking brake" is a much better term than either "hand brake" or "emergency brake".
Not to burst anyone's bubble... but i've been waiting for this story to hit the front page just so i could!

RTFA. (and in this case the Sveasoft TOS as well)
You can't get the binary w/o a subscription; so the conditions under which you can get the binary and the source are the same. If you can legally obtain a binary, then you also have access to the source.
Really, there is nothing to see here... move on.
You are missing the point.

It is pretty safe to say that the next president will be a war criminal. The only real question is whether he will have admitted it or not.
You are an racist idiot troll.

This is a hidden preference in 0.77 (as part of the autoreconnect plugin).
You have to manually enable the pref in your prefs.xml.
In 0.78 it will be a checkbox in the autoreconnect plugin.
It is more of a lack of interest than fear, i would think (at least in my case).
Actually, 5.5 appears to be vulnerable. I loaded the BMP and BOOM! it crashed.
if it were java, it would need to be
if ("Democrat".equals(vote)) {
vote=null;
}
So the poor are lesser citizens?
