Obviously it is foolish to target a profession in which all the digital tools are highly proprietary and then hope to be competitive using Free Software.
Has to be done sooner or later. All hail the brave forerunner!

OK, so maybe Al can banish PJ from sf.o for being Too Easily Annoyed and then honour will be satisfied?
If Al was, so to speak, waving his mud-encrusted dipstick in PJ's face then I can understand why she'd banish him. I'd expect her to also banish Scientologists, Mormons or Atheists who were using her site to promote their views instead of for discussing the legal issues there posted. But if you're going to claim that she kicked him off just for choosing to be bent, link to some verifiable testimony. SCOfacts appears to be down right now, so I can't search for myself.
Any other false assumptions you'd like to share in promoting your fitness to belong in the same complete fucking idiot class as Darl 'Fuckwit' McBride?
I have no idea why anyone would be upset by any of your posts. </sarcasm>
She doesn't support either abuse, or the posting of text which might get GrokLaw closed down (and usually they're synonymous).
If you post an alternate PoV that is not abusive, she will leave it there - unless you've been so consistently abusive in the past that she's already toileted your account.
If she hasn't fed your account to/dev/null, I'd be very surprised, 'coz I'm pretty sure I would have by now (call me prejudiced, or call me experienced, makes no difference in how it works). If you'd been on FidoNet, you'd have been downed for TEA and XA long ago there as well.
So... learn to express yourself in a socially constructive manner and the gates to acceptance will open before you. Refuse, and you're condemned to a frustrating on-line life forever. That's not a decree from me, that's just how life works.
A gentle, polite and helpful one, as well. And they have an excellent wooden frog, plus top-quality coffee facilities for those who are into chemically abusing their kidneys. But I digress. (-:
Tridge wrote the core of Samba4 in about a day of coding spread over about a day and a half elapsed. That blew my mind. He did have a clear idea of what he was going to do when he started, but nevertheless it's startling to watch. He also wrote the core to have unprecedented flexibility, so it's going to be just as interesting to see what some of the other Samba geniuses do with it now that it's airborne (just).
It's also going to be interesting to see if naming his test tool "smbtorture" this time around (instead of "smbclient") is going to prevent people coming to rely upon it for day-to-day administration. (-:
There's a vinter named Elements (no web site, sorry) in the Hunter Valley region of south-eastern Australia. They do a Chardonnay, Shiraz and a few other specialties.
...a valid dogbert tactic (point 19). Unfortunately, dilbert.com seems to no longer exist, and I can't see any archives of the actual cartoon anywhere, but nevertheless would probably get legal threats if I dug out and posted a copy on the 'Net.
Perhaps Firefox is more secure, but since everybody else there runs IE, what difference does it make?
The difference is that the security breah is not traced to my machine, and I can browse without fear.
On top of this, I get the tabs and all of those bazillions of nice, easy-to-reach extensions and themes. It's almost as good as Konqueror (except that Konq's JavaScript sucks).

I thought they licenced parts of it from TSG.

Evil thought: I very rarely get negative mods. Does that mean I'm a moron? (-:

And lying to or through Congress should be made a capital offence, even for Presidents.

Elephants and whales have cows and calves too, y'now.
Your statement assumes that all lawmakers are sane, reasonable and unbiassed. The odds against that are incredible.
