I'm glad 2.2.8 will be in Mandriva 2008, and I don't mind that stuff is not backported. However, it is nice if you know how to help people and can tell them where to find third party builds. Ubuntu, Fedora, Suse have enough users that those are available.
My search a while ago to find a more recent package turned up empty, so source installation it is for these people if the bug is solved in a more recent version. Our info on the wiki: http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title =Installation#Upgrading_to_the_latest_version gives the latest info we got from a user, but I don't think it is correct, and although we have a lot of users on Mandriva we tell to upgrade, none apparently get back to us on where to find alternative packages, or can write up an upgrade process (removing old version, installing source, correct path). I feel save recommending Ubuntu/Fedora/Suse: download install, and yes, I know it is the community that provides those packages, but that is just it, isn't it?
Also note the install path: /home/mandrake/rpm/tmp/gramps-2.2.6-1mdv2007.1-bui ldroot/usr/share/gramps/GrampsDb/_GrampsBSDDB.py
I have seen that alot recently. This looks a strange path to me as a linux user, but then, I don't know the Mandriva system anymore.
Sorry you take this bad, but as an application developer, not a distro maker, I want my users to use the latest version instead of reporting old bugs to me. It's free after all, and having always the option of using the latest version is actually the one big benefit that linux offers. The requirement of constant upgrading the OS to get new versions or do source install otherwise, just doesn't work for the normal PC user.
People are allowed to recount their experiences. Fact is, many people have used Mandriva (I did too a couple of years ago when it was Mandrake), but switched.
I develop for an OSS program (GRAMPS) that has version 2.2.8 out now, we get Mandrake bugs on version 2.3.6! I don't know who manages packaging there, but it is their Achilles heel. Urpmi drove me away, helping Mandriva users on our bug tracker (mostely french people lately) shows me the problems are still there.
What is interesting in this is that the European headquarters are also in Belgium, Brussels to be exact. So some very high ranking scientologists can be sued.
In 1998 or so they where already being cataloged as a sect, not a church, which is important here (state money and benefits I suppose). It is estimated that Belgium has 8000 Scientologists, which is pretty lousy on 10 million, but still, with the headquarters, it could be painful for them.
I understand english, italian, some spanish.
Most people I know can't buy movies abroad, they need regional subtitles or dubbing. Hell, my brother even doesn't want to look at all my movies I bought in the UK, because there is no Dutch on it, and that is the same region.
I agree regionfree would be better for BD, but the reality is, it only sucks for english speaking countries, that is UK-USA-Australia.
Your explanation cannot work. If what you say would be the case, it would be observed around other hot jupiters, which it doesn't. Of course, few hot jupiters have been seen with the transiting technique, so actually most could be this big (but I wouldn't bet on it).
I'd say, wait and see. The spectral lines should tell them more, and we can expect hundreds of planets via the transiting techniques in the coming months thanks to ESA's COROT mission.
Drivers are for kernels, so it might be for every kernel version but not for every distro.
The only thing that can influence the behavior between distro's is if they make a GUI to control the driver (GTK, X, QT,...), but that stinks in Windows too, so here's to hoping they just give the kernel guys the API, and KDE/Gnome write their own controller in the settings panels.
Let's see, Microsoft as an OS company has no need to support Linux, they only need someinteroperability.
Microsoft as a company in the market to provide content streaming systems has a lot of reasons to support linux: serving content from linux machines which is cheaper for businesses, accessing as much people as possible, marketing as a multiplatform system, possible revenue of people licensing this for use in mobile phones/pda/... running linux,... It would increase revenue for this specific bussines.
The only problem is Microsoft is a lot of companies, and all are forced to protect the chicken with the golden eggs (Vista and Office), which means the bottom line of the specific department aiming at content streaming can be lower than it could be, if that means feeding the chicken.
It doesn't make the news over there apparently, and why would it if it doesn't involve USA companies?
The largest fine was given only a couple of months ago to elevator companies for setting up price policies and dividing contracts amoung themselves. 992 million fine.

Can't you? You can pay with your card and have it delivered to a UK address.
You can then arrange the shipping yourself.
From their website:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.h tml?nodeId=14044781
They only restrict the delivery address. Anyway, this is about physical objects, with specific regulations. Electronics must be certified before they can be sold. UK machines are separate machine numbers, often only tested for the UK.
What you say looks believing, but is fortunately wrong.
In Belgium there is a maximum amount per year you have to pay for medical costs, the rest is paid by the government. It's called maximum invoice. There are some add-ons, like if you want to be on a room alone (but that is really your choice, being sick is not), and the dentist is not included I think.
Belgium paid in 2005 850 miljoen euro for this, so the US has what, 25times as many inhabitants?
There is no division between public and private sector, they are governed by the exact same rules. You have complete freedom in your choice of hospital.
People from around europe are coming here for medical attention (liver transplants, hart surgery, a lot of english patients), so the service cannot be bad.
Oh, and there are enough doctors, and they drive around in mercedes's. Yes, socialist are in the government at the moment. Don't know if that has to do anything with it though, they are governing with the liberals at the moment. Oh, and yes, the law is fair, if you earn more, the amount you have to pay yourself is higher. Of course! Just search on 'MAF, Maximum Factuur, maximum-factuur or maximumfactuur (yes, dutch spelling rules changed a lot the last years;-) ).
While you are going feet after feet, I take a 1m step. It takes less time! Rougly 1/3th
No minus temperatures? That's just the greatness of it, UNDER 0 everything outside changes. Really EVERYTHING. You can see 0 hapening, the minus coming forth.
Some say the same is true for 100, but I haven't experienced that up close.
I read slashdot, I post. After reading many posts on this subject on slashdot, I come to the conclusion that PS3 will be the best deal.
In case you're wondering, I have a HD tv, 43 inches, surround system,... . There are millions like that, who don't even are gamers, that would buy the PS3 the first year it's out just to brag to have clearly the most expensive and capable game machine around.
Personally I'll wait off course for the price to drop after this first rush. But I'd be a fool to buy a Wii or Xbox 360 in the meantime. First see the actual machines at work, test them and see the games. The GAMES man, it's all about the GAMES. Never buy on emotion.
And guess what, you can buy a PS2 for Christmas to give as a present to your niece.
The point is that Microsoft makes AND bundles the software. They should just disallow Microsoft to bundle, so they are forced to let other companies make "distributions" or still allow Microsoft to bundle, but enforce that other companies can bundle differently (for the same price as Microsoft does for the Microsoft parts).
Like this, on buying a PC you can chose the distribution (and pay for it) you like most (and not the silly versions of vista microsoft wants to make available on launch), be it windows media player or realplayer or...
It's about fair use, and the way it works now, microsoft will always misuse it's large marketshare. Some simple laws can make a big difference, without effecting the userexperience.
Not shown in Europe, and I mean large parts of the continent with that. In my region (6 million people) it was shown in 2 (TWO) theatres with no (NO) publicity.
Had do drive 70 km at 22u to see this movie the second week it was out. Was worth it though.
No wonder the international box office is low.
I did take 4 non SF fans who also never saw Buffy with me. They all liked or loved the movie and had no regrets....(well except for the killing of Wash, that's indeed something that gives many people on an instinctif level a bad feeling)
I just convinced an engineer used to writing in.doc to use latex. He never wants to go back anymore. Just a pity latex2doc does not exist, some journals only accept.doc these days.
Let me note that QM is a non local theory, so in the view of many people, including myself, MUST be wrong.
Due to the small scales, this has no influence on the devices you mention. The devices you mention make mostly use of the discrete energy levels of the electron in the atom. This can be just as well explained with classical radiation theory. It is just more complex, but people have attempted this and succeeded partially.
Furthermore, present day QM is not what many people learn in school, but is based on certain paradigms. Most common is the de Broglie interpretation (http://nobelprize.org/physics/laureates/1929/brog lie-bio.html, http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qm-bohm/) but just as with many other theories there are still many open questions wich leave room for improvement/change of the theory.
This does not change the fact that the true theory must conform to all the correct predictions that QM does. I doubt Mills' theory is correct, but also he stands on the shoulders of giants in his search to an alternative theory.
Many people write theories that are local, just to give a recent one which has a lot of text that is understandable to non QM/RM people: http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0508104

Could this be related to the news yesterday that Spielberg bought the rights for a Tintin movie (or even a trilogy?), see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Tin tin
Definitely aimed at younger people, people who probably won't buy a PS3/XBOX 360.

I wrote the program, I'm happy with it. I don't get paid for it. And you complain I have to do documentation??
If, and that's a big if, other people are interested, a community will grow and someone will write (better) documentation from his goodness of heart.
But who are you to tell me what I have to do in my free time?
