Yes, they contribute, but don't really play nice in this instance.
They pretty much said "here is the work we have done over the last year, I suggest you use this as your base and no we will not split it into small easily digestable parts. Yes, you can take it or leave it.".
PAE support is already in the 3.0 codebase that is pending release.
If you are interested, it's probably already in the various distro development trees (red hat rawhide, mandr(ake|iva) cooker, Novell/Suse... (what do they name their ongoing dev repo?)).
Try your most convoluted setup now, and know it will be ready for production at release time.
Today, Xen supports i386, x86_64, and ia64. Xen is currently being ported to PowerPC also.
I would not be surprised if Sun ports it to Sparc also.
[...] XenSource != Xen. Most of there people aren't even actively working on Xen anyway (they have a product for Xen management),
Please read sig.
Large portions of the Xen Linux port are currently being rewritten to live up to kernel standards.
From what I have read, it is not that the code is low quality in XEN, it is that the XEN patch adds a new architecture which means a *lot* of code duplication. That has allowed the XEN team to try out many different ideas with fewer integration problems, but it is not acceptable for a merge into the mainline (kernel.org) code base.
You Sir are nothing but a troll. Its not fun to criticise someone who does not deserve it. If I had some mod points that is what you would get modded as. If you have nothing to say, then STFU.
The other cool thing you can do here is run a bunch of OSes each running your service. For instance, you have an OBSD, FreeBSD, Linux, and Windows server each running your pages on apache. One goes down (open bsd security hole, like always), you just put in the super-secure windows VM automatically, and you're protected from the vulnerability.
Just use your imagination.
My imagination tells me that you have that backwards*.

You can't pick out an animal that is 'half-way' mutated - that idea is just idiotic.
And:
Over time these mutations change a selection of animals enough for them to be classified as a separate genus (ie: Homo erectus to Homo sapien) and eventually some mutations will lead to completly new species (ie: Gorillas to Humans).
I take it you are talking about yourself in the first part?;)
How is it that we don't find more fossils for all of the states between species?
Yep, whether your bittorrent client is written in Java, Python or C++, if the amount of memory isn't at least big enough to fit the size of the files being seeded + memory for apps, then your apps will be swapped out in time.
Geez, now I get it. And since Windows is made by an American company, it doesn't know foreign languages and has to check up each function name in the dictionary -- which slows down the program considerably. Thanks for explaining this mystery.
Ug, so it looks like you didn't make the mental connection about the german...
First of all, StarOffice was known for its bloat long before being bought by Sun. Before OOo 1.0 was released, a lot was done to clean things up, like the load of **** (flush twice) Star Desktop.
With the code already having a lot of bloat, with comments, function names (think german acronyms), in german doesn't help with understanding what everything does. This is slowly changing though.
So, use OOo because it is free and Free. Because of the functionality. Because the copy of MS Office on your friend's computer probably wasn't paid for. But not because it is fast. That will come with time.

1. It is not fair to compare based on file size. Not only are OOo files compressed, but different data that is the same size uncompressed can have drastically different processing times. Think of the difference of one page full of vector graphics, tables and a little text compared with 3 or 4 pages of text.
2. It is a known problem that OOo takes a while to start. Staroffice (at the point when Sun bought it) was made by a German company. Most of the internal functions are named in german, and use abbreviations that are not obvious. The fact is that each version of OOo has been getting smaller and faster. OOo 2.0 is the same. If you run OOo 1.1.4 and OOo 2.0 side by side on windows, the 2.0 version uses about 10MB less memory when both have nothing open.
3. Since it uses more memory, it has a higher chance of being swapped out when you switch to another program for a while. A good way to see this in a short period of time is to run a torrent in the background (seeding or just downloading). Leave an OOo window open and use another program for 20 or more minutes. When you switch back to OOo it can take 10-40 seconds (depending mostly on the speed of your hard drive and amount of memory available) for the window to redraw.
If you are using OOo often enough to keep it in memory it is very snappy. But if it gets swapped out, then you will notice a speed degredation.
4. In my experience with small files (less than 200 records in a spreadsheet and 1 - 4 page documents) OOo takes longer to open and save files. I usually work with.csv,.xls,.doc, and of course.odt and.ods files.

Someone please explain to me why grammar and proper spelling is so derided on this forum? People complain about bad computer language use (ie, bad code) but at the same moment use bad human language. What's wrong with this picture?
With the LGPL, Sun can take the OOo code and link it with any proprietary code they like. Taking out the SISSL dual license allows for this without the requirement of copyright sharing (which is what the JCL -- Joint Copyright License -- is supposed to do).
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, I did miss that. Good to see apple opening up more.
You notice how I mentioned Red Hat/Rawhide?
Rawhide is the development repository where every new package goes when it is first created. Just like Mandriva/Cooker and Debian/Sid.
Now that my question is further defined, can someone answer it?
Why don't they just name the window title: "Slashdot: News for [...] - Mozilla Firefox"?
Or to KDE's HTML renderer?
Yes, they contribute, but don't really play nice in this instance.

[...] Arguably, that 1 scheduler is one of the primary reasons you would prefer Xen.
Since I haven't read up on the details of XEN, I must ask the question.
Does that mean the host OS is the one scheduler in question?

Having said all that, what exactly would South Korea lose from such a threat being carried out, anyway?
From what I see; Any and all right to keep sueing Microsoft. It would just be imported from another 3rd party.
Try setting /proc/sys/vm/swapiness between 0 and 25.

And they probably counted every TCP retry attempt as a new spam message too...
How many languages do you write in?
Now remove the dictionaries you have installed for the other languages, and your memory usage will go down drastically.

At least there you don't need any antivirus or antispyware programs.

Yes, that was nice. Where is the OSS copycat so I can start using it again?
GPL can use BSD code, but BSD code cannot use GPL code.
Not true. When GPLed code is linked with BSD code, the entire compiled work is upgraded* to GPL.
There are repositories of GPL patches to the various BSDs.
* Some will argue whether GPL gives less freedom or more protection for freedom.
With the LGPL, Sun can take the OOo code and link it with any proprietary code they like. Taking out the SISSL dual license allows for this without the requirement of copyright sharing (which is what the JCL -- Joint Copyright License -- is supposed to do).
