I'll tell you why this is a problem. It's because now you all are spending more time over what license to use(or create) than you spend writing code. Once again proving that patent/copyright only retards/delays/inhibits/stifles inovation/developement/creativity. There is only one solution, and in your heart you know what it must be.
"Disney seems to have the ability to sit back and buy whatever they want."
Like a few more congressmen, perhaps? Maybe they can get a law passed that would stipulate that whatever Pixar produces will be owned by disney for the next 75 years.
Tell him what he wins, Johnny. You get to take home...a beautiful, brand new Amana Radar Range(Don't watch the food cook) AND a new refrigerator(Close the door, and the light stays on...Two shelves where none are needed) and how are you going to get all these appliances home? In your very own Plywood Fury with a two barrel carbonmaker and brand new gladiator. Using the latest technology, the windshield is 63% more transparent.
Them machine is pretty fast with lots of RAM, so compiling won't be a problem. I just want to stick as close as possible to "real" UNIX. I'll feel better if I can install stuff without using "packages" of any kind. Thanks for the info.
Thanks for the reply. My only "real" UNIX experience(extremely limited) was with SCO(!?) in the newsroom back in '95. At the time I thought SCO was the only unix that was worth a damn. I also used to think that Harris made good transmitters. Anyway, when I first used Red Hat('99)(5.1), it went in slicker than...and I was able to find all my config files and everything (Probably showing my lack of experience). However, my Mandrake install just last year was an entirely different story. Almost everything went into some kind of Mandrake directory. I still run it ocassionaly, without sound, but that's another thread. This is why I'm going to try Slackware. Getting back to my roots(so to speak). Got the ISO's. just waiting for a machine.
It probably is, but that's the way the cookie crumbles. (OT)It's like when I read about the Democrats, and I'm thinking "What about Kucinich?"(/OT) I've read that Slackware is the most "UNIX like" because it installs its files in standard UNIX directories, unlike others that use all sorts of "distro specific" directories(Mandrake?). I can't think of a better place than here to ask whether this is true or not. Slashdot poll? Maybe? Possibly?

" If you build a project that includes the blood, sweat, and tears of other people,..."
Well, if you didn't smash the keys so hard, your fingers wouldn't get so bloody.
-"Work your fingers to the bone...waddya get...boney fingers..."
Doesn't the tilde go over the n to make enyay(enye)?
when the Mac was classified as a "munition(sp)" and was subject to export controls? Or just more urban legend?

I know...I should read the article...or maybe other posts about this, but isn't this kind of like the "white lists" I have in my IM's?
H2G2?
Hmmm...where did they get THAT idea??
Well...lucky you. I have one provider, and it's Prodigy...HEEELLPP MMEE...
we're not going to boycott disney anytime soon, eh?
Thank god...I thought it was one of those new elements that some mad scientist invented.
Mucho gracias por la informacion. Ay cabron... donde esta mi acento sobre el o?
1: Get a good patent attorney.
2: Don't write any software
3: Sue
4: Profit?
Yes...and the United States is the origanal "European Union". In fact in Mexico it's written as "EU"
"oh i forgot, germany is such an unstable rogue state. better hurry up and invade!^H^H^H^H^H^H liberate"
Been there, Done that.
I'll give a shot...TNX

"Evil spammers probably also use toothpaste. Does that make everyone who uses toothpaste evil?"
No, it just means we must ban toothpaste.

"It means we're one day closer to patent reform."
That's like asking for slavery reform...can't happen. Abolition(sp) is the only way.
