The Maginot Line didn't fall. It was taken from behind because Hitler's Wehrmacht attacked a neutral country : Belgium. French people are honest and upright and didn't though he would attack there...
For your information, about 20 deputies against 20 voted for this amendement. The other deputies were not in the Parliament (they are not constrained to be there).
So the big problem is : why so few deputies take care of this problem.
Well, this guy is an epidemiologist, not an epistemologist. So I cannot understand how he write a paper on a problem on which he is not competent.
Maybe epidemiologist publications are all false, but not scientific publications.
When I see how long it takes for a scientist to write its article, to check it for errors, I cannot understand that such a man says that they are all wrong !
Ok, some can be, that's science. But not 50% of scientific publications.
And what does he call scientific publications ? Publications in "Nature" or in the "Scientific American" or in "Science for the n00bs" ?
Remember that Great Britain was the first country to say in the Great Charter:
No free man shall be arrested, or imprisoned, or deprived of his property, or outlawed, or exiled, or in any way destroyed, nor shall we go against him or send against him, unless by legal judgement of his peers, or by the law of the land.
Now, they have to find a balance between this and the fight against terrorism.

Yes, you're right to say this. If Internet Explorer starts fast under Windows, it is that it's preloaded at startup.
Well, i'm maybe a noob but not an anonymous coward;)
As far as I know of my personal experience of young (who said n00b:p ?) KDE developer, KDE is not so bloated.
As far as I know, bugs.kde.org works really well. As a KDE developper, I browse such lists from time to time and check out bugs, feature requests. Popular confirmed request are each time implemented.
As you said that it is a "very commonly heard criticism of KDE", please can you quote somebody ?
But, if Simple KDE guys want to do something clean and without configuration options, they can do it. It's forking, it's allowed, it works (see Xorg). But here I *think* that for them it could not work, as KDE is a so a big project.
Btw, re-reading my post, I think I probably misexplained my thoughs as I said noob-ness. I do not qualify SimpleKDE developers of noob, I don't know them and wouldn't allow me to say that. I just wanted to say that their concerns were about making KDE available to noobs... well, english isn't my mother tongue...
Innovative for KDE is part of KDE4. If you have ideas, feel free to share them:)
What we aim to do with KDE4 is to build a desktop for everyone, easy to use, but with good configuration options for power users.
But the first thing is to make something usable for you daily task. So for this it should be some innovation note here at this time.
"The only innovative thing I've heard about that comes to mind recently, is Apple's Spotlight and a filing system that uses labels rather then folders (is Apple going to be doing this? Or is Microsoft? Or is no-one and I'm only hoping someone eventually will?). "
You should search for tenor on google. Tenor is a search engine framework which should be included in KDE 4. It should be more powerfull than Spotlight
Well, I think this KDE fork is going to die very quickly. Why have the developers of Simple KDE not contacted KDE developpers and have spoken with them of their usability and noob-ness concerns ?
I think it's not a serious fork. To maintain such a large project, it needs a huge team (see the KDE one). Just imagine the translations, if the UI changes a bit, even with a good merging tool (svn for instance), it will be impossible for Simple KDE to follow.
They should better have cooperated with KDE team which is very open...
KDE is going to give its well-known 'K' up. See the new plasma library (http://plasma.bddf.ca/) or the coming tenor search framework... I sounds more serious maybe.
The K is actually a recognition mark, but *for me* it doesn't sound well for all the names... (Kubuntu, for instance).

In France we have too candidates who are on second life, the facists and the stupid Ségolène Royal
Can you explain where the problem is ?

Do you know koders.com ? It's a cool code search engine !

Commenting out code won't help since on such a big project it has to be rather automatic if you want to keep time for coding.

Archive.org is a really good place to find lost treasures like Popeye or Merrie Melodies =)
I'm really sorry they get sued because I like their work.
It's an archive. It takes place into our cultur. You won't sue a library for storing archives !
Nothing better than liquid nitrogen then >:>
In Soviet Russia ... ... there was no Internet :-)
... police motorbikes are gonna play Tron with you !
Those screenshots are not all the things that will be in Longhorn.
Avalon and WinFS won't be there.
But what about the stability ? What about the security ? Maybe they are going to be improved, but we can't see this on screenshots.
Actually, I'm a bit disappointed with these screenshots, but screenshots doesn't show the whole new features.
I was wondering how fast is your connection in your country ?
Here in France, the average would be a 2 MBits/s, I think (with up to 20 MBits for about 1 million people)
And you ?
Seems to be a war to be the best "opensource" helper. See Google wants to help wikipedia, Yahoo helps wikipedia, Google makes Google summer code ...
;-) ?

It's cool because there are satellite images for Europeans countries much more accurate than NASA Worldwind one's.
Though US Towns have a better resolution with Worldwind (with USGS Urban Area satellite view)
