I agree, Pidgin supports tons of different protocols. I use it with the OTR plugin and can have secure conversations over any service from AOL to Yahoo to Jabber, even IRC.
Telephones started out wired and are now wireless.
Wireless networking is a step backwards from a switched hardware fabric. Productivity will be much faster when a file, such as a large presentation, can be trasmitted and delivered in gigabits a second, instead of potentially single digit megabits.
I like ETree for all my music needs. http://bt.etree.org/ is a free tracker for free music. The bands, who's music appears on this site, allow and encourage people to make tapes of their live shows and share them with their friends. It is this general philosophy that lead to the large followings of The Greatful Dead and Phish and Linux.
The shareholders already have the exact same rights to the software that the company that is using them. Does this topic really make any point that isn't just an academic exercise? I think that the entire company can disclose their open source intellectual property rights with a single all encompassing word, Everyone.
Most computer professionals will tell you that bits simply cannot be protected from copying. So what can individuals or companies do to protect their digitized works? San Jose, CA information security expert Bruce Schneier says, "It's not so much about what people can do, it's more about how they think. There's nothing anyone can do; trying to make bits uncopyable is like trying to make water not wet. The sooner people accept this, and build business models that take this into account, the sooner people will start making money again." Schneier is the author of Secrets and Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World (John Wiley & Sons, 2000).
You obviously didn't get the point. I think you are just too quick to belittle some anonymous person on a message board. I wouldn't use the word if i didn't know what it means. Any given algorithm is immuteable, because once it is changed, it's a different algorithm, which is also immuteable. These algorithms at some point or another have to be selected to be placed into a working system. Somebody might have to explain how that system works to someone else. If one person needs to know, someone else needs to know it too if they want to use this immuteable algorithm.
Pricing
"Through competitively priced customer offerings, we believe that Sprint will drive the pricing standard and accelerate the adoption of convenient and relevant mobile data services made possible by PCS Vision, just as we did with nationwide long distance and other industry-first offerings," said Esrey.
Once customers determine how they plan to use PCS Vision in their lives, they have greater billing flexibility through new business and consumer PCS Free and Clear Plans with Vision, both of which provide separate allotments for crystal clear voice calls and data applications: minutes for voice calls, megabytes for data usage. For data applications, customers will be charged for data sent or received over the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network - meaning they can have the benefits of PCS Vision and still have all of their service plan minutes to make amazingly clear calls. Billing for PCS voice plans will remain unchanged and customers will continue to select a calling plan with a pre-determined number of minutes.
PCS Free & Clear with Vision -- Initially ranging in price from $44. 99 to $119.99, PCS Free & Clear with Vision plans will include megabytes for data usage along with varying amounts of voice minutes, depending on the individual plan. For a limited time, Sprint will offer special introductory rate plans that provide more Anytime Minutes than standard Free & Clear plans; allow customers to share minutes with another PCS phone for no additional charge and each phone will have two megabytes of data to use. An example of the introductory PCS Free & Clear with Vision plans include the $89.99 per month plan that features 2,000 Anytime Minutes that can be used by an individual or shared between two people. Additional phones can share the minutes for only $20 per phone and each phone on the plan will receive two megabytes of data. The special introductory plans require a one- or two-year PCS Advantage Agreement and will be available until October 31, 2002.
Here's one example of what an avid messaging user can do with two megabytes: send 100 e-mails and 150 Instant Messages and check out 100 Web pages as well as a few Games, Ringers, Screen Savers and Pictures. Heavy Web users, for instance, can expect to use two megabytes to browse 300 Web pages, send 20 e-mails and Instant Messages and download a few ringers, screen savers and games.
PCS Vision for Laptops and PDAs - For a limited time, business customers may take advantage of introductory pricing at four levels: $39.99 per month for 20 megabytes; $59.99 per month for 40 megabytes; $79.99 per month for 70 megabytes and $119.99 per month for 120 megabytes, all with a one-year PCS Advantage Agreement. Business customers can also select an introductory offer of unlimited data usage for $49.99 per month for the first three months and $99.99 thereafter with a one-year PCS Advantage Agreement.
Realizing PCS Vision is more than just new content, devices or network capability, Sprint has capitalized on the advantage of its single technology platform to revamp back-office infrastructure, most notably in the way Sprint sells to customers. On the retail side, Sprint has fundamentally changed the design and delivery of its sales process and training as well as migrated to sophisticated and innovative in-store merchandising. Sprint is extending this same targeted retail approach by elevating the retail experience at select third-party retailers and providing these partners with a high level of training and differentiation opportunities for PCS Vision products and services.
This same single technology platform has also provided Sprint with clear advantages in the industry. Building its network from the ground up with advanced wireless data services in mind, Sprint selected CDMA technology to allow an efficient and cost-effective evolutionary path to CDMA2000, maximizing spectrum and enabling Sprint to achieve up to double its voice capacity. Additionally, this single technology will support data speeds up to 144 kilobits per second, with average speeds between 50 and 70 kilobits per second. Finally, the single technology of the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network allows consistency so services and features work the same, everywhere on the enhanced network.
From a business customer standpoint, Sprint has realigned its sales account team structure and internal processes to focus more on creating compelling reasons for enterprise customers to centralize and standardize the management of their wireless purchases. Sprint plans to accelerate the sales of PCS Vision wireless data solutions to enterprise customers of all sizes by adding five new IT and telecom industry leaders to its PCS Business Solutions Program including Accenture, HP, IBM (Personal Computing Division), Ingram Micro and PwC Consulting, a business of Pricewaterhouse Coopers.

I used to think that there would be some things lost from moving to an all linux desktop machine such as the ability to terminal server over to a 2000 TS. Well this is no longer the case. I found a small 50K program called rdesktop that allows any linux machine to make Terminal Server connections to Windows servers. This software comes installed by default in the K12LTSP linux distribution. A direct link here.
From inside a windows os there are also a number of ways to connect to linux hosts. You can use a windows compatible X client such as X-Win to connect to a server with Linux Terminal Server Project software installed. Using X gives you the ability to pipe information through an encrypted connection you can setup with ssh/openssh.
Every article I read about anticircumvention laws and policies reminds me of the following quote:

I didnt see any mention in http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1003-200-6947172.html of when a free P4 compiler would be available. How long would it take for the GCC folks to have a working P4 compiler?
There is currently a technology centered project under way at ECU, called Online Wireless Learning Solutions (OWLS), which attempts to integrate PDA's and interactive cdroms into the curriculum.
I appreciate your comments and the astuteness of your hostility. Would you please explain to me or point me in the right direction of the articles you read to learn about Trusted Operating System features.
And yes, like most things....I did read it somewhere. The world is what has been presented to you, and that was as far as I had taken my own personal search for secure BSD distributions.
I probably won't get a reply...so while i'm waiting on nothing i'll begin researching that string of acronyms you presented to me. Thanks for at least giving me a place to start.
At my school I am required for all code submitted to include a legally binding copyright on the second line of *EVERY* file after the file name. My professor has said that this is required as an attempt to prevent cheating by students who want to copy other people's code, in that you could potentially sue the student that copied your work. I don't think that there has been a case where this has happened as of yet, but it's still a viable deterrent for the people that dont want to do their own work.

Wireless networking to me is data, pure data. I also said that wireless networking is a step backwards, not wireless phones.
;).
My first two comments were just laying some groundwork on the state of constant change
Tv's first started wireless and are now wired.
Telephones started out wired and are now wireless.
