Israel has an active open-source and linux community, do the two groups colloborate? And if so, have any friendships been made?
Without getting too political, can open source gap coltural and political differences?
OK, change your license so your competitors can't repackge yours stuff and publish the source anyway. Nah, they just blame the GPL instead of saying "we don't want to show our source anymore".
Kombya... Ugh.
The pope said this, that cardinal said that.
Ever stop to think that there is more then one religion in the world? So the united states adheres to christianity exclusively why? Forgot about the people who don't believe in god, what about the people who believe in god differently?
Nobody is suggesting teaching biology in churches, so keep religion there.
If you want to teach kids (your) religion (which is the only one, and the only correct thing)in school at best you could lobby for theology classes to be opened and students going on a voluntary bases.
Sheesh.
Look at the page, its standards compliant! They coded their pages like crap and now they start coding them with standards... maybe IE7 won't suck that much after all.
You know how sometimes you go to a website with firefox for example and it says that you are using an old version of netscape and need to upgrade?
Why not do the same with IE7 on your site? Detect IE7, BAM, sorry your crappy browser is insecure comeback with a real browser. Here are some... links to mozilla, opera, 'etc.
"but we cant do that" you say, "we'll lose customers"... right, well block out firefox, opera, and the other browsers that's probably something like 15% of the web and growing rapidly.
IE7 will be on vista only and given as an update for XP users... I doubt IE7 will have more then 15% marketshare anytime soon.
I'm sorry, but I just don't want to live in a world where I can't download hot girl on girl action from the internet. Bastards, you will never take that away from me, never!
ahhm
Well thanks for the welcome.:)
I don't mean "bleeding edge" as in "implies risk to the user" - what I do mean is that the RHEL standards are quite high, I don't think you will find the newest packages in it, but rather things that proved they stand the test of time so to speak.
But hey, if fedora works for you then by all means use it.
Sorry for not being clear in my post before, too bad I got a bad karma point, thats just bad luck. hehe.
Two feet from you there is a phone on your desk, you look at it trying to do that jedi trick and make it fly over because you are just too damn lazy to pick the thing up. The craving for pizza is overwhelming, so. weak. from. lack. of. food. Starve or pick up phone? Decisions, Decisions... now that dilemma is solved for you, oh happy day!
I used RH9 and fedore in the past, I know all about that. I do have my own opinion however; fedora (from the links you just posted) will be released 2-3 times a year, and have like others posted here what I would consider "bleeding edge" software. It's quite obvious that RedHat uses the fedora project as a way to get input from a large number of beta testers. (well not beta testers per say, but you get it) Whats stable and solid and good in fedora after a while trickles down to RHEL. Supposedly this is good for everybody, but I think RedHat gains a lot more from this then you do. It's just my opinion. (sheesh, is slashdot always like that? first post, just voiced an opinion and specificly said I'm not trying to flame and got bad karma right away because I dared to say that I don't like the distro of your choice)
I hate to be the devils advocate, but fedora is being used as a test bed by redhat for stuff it wants to add to RHEL. Basically, you are all testing potentially buggy software, and redhat benfit from it. I used to use RH9, but when they started the fedora thing I went looking else where... if you like fedora why not get white linux (I think that's the name), its basically RHEL rebranded and given out for free.
Personally I don't think fedora is that great for regular desktop use, ubuntu or mandriva or suse are IMHO have more of the users intrest in mind.
(please don't flame me, I realize redhat contribute a lot of code and time and funds)

In soviet russia voice menus press you!
Might Mouse, here he comes to save the day!!
"And I wouldn't have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids!" Scoooby-Dooby-Doooo!
Microsoft was responsible for the Area51 coverup, more at 11.
Bet it has clues about jesus and coverups.

Nah.
So maybe now I can at last patent my hello world program and copyright it until 2170. (yes, I plan to live that long)

If he did use it, what distro and when? If he didn't how can he criticize it?

See, Linus could go into politics if he wanted too. I'm glad that his the head of the linux kernel, it takes more then just technical know-how.
