http://www.computerworld.com/ac… “Correction: This story has been changed since it was first posted to say that Remix will be available for free download, although it is most appropriate for developers and prospective netbook vendors. Due to incorrect information provided to Computerworld, the story originally said Remix would not be available for a free download.” |

Ziggy the thing about the above quote is not the mistake. It’s about Ubuntu sort of closing (this mobile derivative). |
Jun 06 04:52 |
| schestowitz |
And just spotted from Mark S’s own mouth: “So while I respect the people in the free software community who invest a lot of time in making compatible implementations of other people’s technology, I don’t think that’s the real recipe for success for free software. We have to give people a reason to use our platform for itself, not because it’s a cheap version of someone else’s.” |

schestowitz: I read that above story, yesterday, and thought it was strange, the Remix, wasn’t going to be release for free download. |

I agree with the statement before that too. |
Jun 06 05:06 |

With regard to GNOME and Microsoft, I’m not concerned. My view is that to win, you have to have your own vision. You have to have a very clear idea of what you can deliver that’s unique. You can’t go around sort of chasing someone else’s coat tails. |
Jun 06 05:06 |

I must wonder if they put some proprietary/NDA’d Intel stuff inside. No source, no binary. Mind you, Remix runs just fine on PCs. It’s not a matter of impossibility. |
Jun 06 05:06 |
| ZiggyFish |
And in fact, the real successes of free software have been the places where it has just blown away the alternatives. The Internet runs on free software, and not because it has copied anything from Microsoft. The proprietary software guys like to accuse free software of not innovating and not doing anything other than sort of walking down the same path that they’ve already walked, which is always easier. That’s just not true, |
Jun 06 05:07 |
| ZiggyFish |
but guys like the Mono Project are reinforcing that stereotype. |
Jun 06 05:07 |
| schestowitz |
Well, the previous stereotype was “communism” |

Given the visibility of FOSS, it makes more sense to assume that blob factories will follow the footsteps of FOSS. In practice, it is often true. |

Edward Screven: I think in fact Microsoft’s saber rattling about Linux patents {audio dropout} you know, is good news. Because what it means is they are struggling to find ways to demonstrate the value of Windows with respect to Linux. So they’ve resorted to fear mongering. And that’s exactly how we view it. And that’s exactly why we fully indemnify Oracle Unbreakable Linux customers. You know, we’re a big company |

FTA: “”The majority of Microsoft oriented corporate IT staff I’ve worked with have a sort of reverential fear of Linux. They like to talk about it in a respectful sort of way, but they are often afraid to actually use it. Deploying a Linux server without an outside support agreement is a very scary task to users who have felt safe for years in their codependent relationship with Microsoft.” |

Mind you, Microsoft employees are leaving comments in ZDNet to advertise Silverblight. I caught this. |

maybe HTML need the Microsoft marketing |
Jun 06 08:12 |

wouldn’t suprise me |
Jun 06 08:12 |

Well, they have Wilson there already. Microsoft is seriously f*ing up HTML from the inside. |

It seems like Novell has just lost a chief figure. |
Jun 06 10:40 |
| schestowitz |
“From 1988 to 1998, Arthur served in various sales, marketing and general management roles for Novell Inc. His last position was VP and GM of Novell’s Internet Infrastructure Division, which was focused on Novell’s directory services, security offerings and software platforms for Internet Service Providers. Arthur holds a BS from the University of California at Davis.” |

Just spotted a funny contradictory message in a new article: http://searchenterpriselinux.techtar… : ‘Novell’s SUSE Linux Enterprise is “light years ahead” of its competitors, Nickle added. “They all should take their hats off to Novell for improving the Linux kernel and giving the results back to the community.”‘. |

Jun 06 11:07 |
| PetoKraus |

Either the guy quoted or Novell cannot understand the GPL. Novell knows the rules, but it uses the Microsoft deal to change them. |

“I just downloaded Symphony. I was thinking it would be an “improved” OpenOffice with some tunning from IBM. |
Jun 06 11:25 |
| schestowitz |
All the opposite, I was presented with a pre-alfa version of something far away of beeing useful. It’s so buggy that remind me of version 0.01 of Abiword or Gnumeric. |
Jun 06 11:25 |
| schestowitz |
I don’t known what obscure intentions IBM keeps in mind by it looks to me the final purpose is not other than undermine the reputation of ODF and OpenOffice an Sun.” |

Yes, I know the poster. He is credible. |

IBM and Microsoft are similar. They are oversized companies that moved overseas (or use Visas) to raise profits and they are likely to cling onto patents to stay relevant. |
Jun 06 11:28 |
| ZiggyFish |
schestowitz: I don’t really agree with that, IBM is a lot (and I mean a lot) better than what Microsoft is. I get IBMs RSS feeds. And they have a lot of interesting stuff. and the articles they have show that they know a lot about Linux(both it’s pitfalls, and it’s advantages), Also they contribute to open source. whereas Microsoft doesn’t do any of those things. |
Jun 06 11:31 |

As for outsourcing, a lot of companies do do this. a lot of banks do this(which is more worrying than software companies) |

Quabec has just ‘pulled a BECTA’ ( http://www.groklaw.net/newsitems.php ): “By order of Microsoft, Québec government refuses info on contracts… A few weeks ago, we filed several access to information requests concerning ‘umbrella contracts’ the Québec government had granted to IBM, Novell and Microsoft.” Ha! |

Yes, IBM is luckily not fighting against FOSS. Same with Oracle, to a degree. Oracle will be better when Ellison finally retires (he has two people fighting for inheritance… those who report to him).But… maybe better the devil whom we know. |

HOWTOs are useful when they are unique and detailed. I’m not sure what’s most valuable; I personally concentrate on something I’ve studied for a while, esp. ways in which Microsoft sabotages FOSS from the iinside and out. As time goes by, I accumulate more knowledge, type it down and if the sharing interests some viewers, that’s excellent. |
Jun 06 11:57 |

I’ve talking about the mono dangers for years here on Brazil |
Jun 06 14:05 |
| taq |
something that some years ago made some people a little nervous |
Jun 06 14:05 |
| schestowitz |
Does Mono mean monkey also in Portuguese? |
Jun 06 14:05 |
| taq |
nops, here is the same English meaning |
Jun 06 14:06 |
| schestowitz |
It’s a name that doesn’t inspire confidence. Monkeys /mimic/. Just like Moonlight as a “lead pony” for Silverlight. |
Jun 06 14:07 |
| taq |
btw, thanks God that there is nothing relevant about moonlight on the first year |
Jun 06 14:08 |
| taq |
I think that it will sink |
Jun 06 14:08 |
| schestowitz |
O’Reilly thinks so too… or at least showing some figures. Microsoft will carry on faking adoption and be slapped for it. |
Jun 06 14:09 |
| schestowitz |
Going by the English meaning of mono, all we have is an infectious disease, so hopefully it won’t be passed outside Novell. |
Jun 06 14:09 |

I think microsoft as we know it (thinking about their power) is coming to an end |

and now Icahn is doing the exactly thing that ballmer said he would do as an “aggressive option” |

Jun 06 14:11 |
| schestowitz |
Yes. |

I think Icahn is their proxy battle, but they try to dissociate themselves from it for PR reasons. |
Jun 06 14:13 |
| jbh |
the mono devs seem to be pretty incompetant |
Jun 06 14:16 |

Icahn is the new SCO. |
Jun 06 14:16 |
| jbh |
it’s taken them a year and still no moonlight 1.0 release |
Jun 06 14:16 |
| taq |
jbh: technically, I don’t have any issues with mono. But on the dirty side, I have a lot. As a developer, I can’t understand why with such good open and *free (libre)* options people insist on the microsoft things. |

Developers who come from .NET want Mono, but what can you do…? |
Jun 06 14:18 |
| jbh |
I was just reading about vala, sounds like it might be a great way to get people off of mono |
Jun 06 14:19 |
| jbh |
but I’m a bit concerned about it using identical syntax to C# |
Jun 06 14:19 |
| jbh |
might be an avenue for MS attacks |

That’s just the problem with swpatents. Short of copycat/copyrights there’s this ‘similarity’ thing. Like Microsoft rips off Java, then threatens. |

I get the feeling most .NET devs use .NET because they can’t wrap their heads around freeing unused memory |
Jun 06 14:25 |
| jbh |
and/or freeing memory when they shouldn’t |
Jun 06 14:25 |
| jbh |
and so take the easy way out rather than learn |
Jun 06 14:26 |

schestowitz: the problem for me is the new developers and some that already are using free langs and come to mono/.net |
Jun 06 14:26 |

Jun 06 14:32 |

see a company making all sort of dirty deeds and keep quiet is not a good thing, that’s why we need to keep talking about this and about open/free stuff |

People still wonder if that Dell laptop will run Ubuntu Linux (that’s some people’s guess). |
Jun 06 16:48 |
| Eruaran |
seems like a resonable guess |
Jun 06 16:50 |
| schestowitz |
I’m not sure. I think they’ll have an XP and Linux option. Then it boils down to pricing and specs. |
Jun 06 16:53 |
| Eruaran |
I think they’ll offer the choice of ubuntu netbook remix or XP |
Jun 06 16:55 |
| schestowitz |
Hopefully no SUSE (they already do this in China). |
Jun 06 16:59 |
| Eruaran |
Dell will be looking for a marketing edge and ubuntu has a big following, also staying with ubuntu gives them a bridge to their ubuntu desktops where customers might take the step to ubuntu on a dell desktop as well |
Jun 06 16:59 |
| Eruaran |
I don’t think they’ll go Suse, they’ll want to differentiate themselves from HP |
Jun 06 17:00 |
| Eruaran |
At least if I was Michael Dell, thats what I’d do |

Jun 06 17:11 |

Yes, it’s a Turbolinux-Mandriva collaboration |
Jun 06 17:13 |
| Eruaran |
I don’t know much about it |
Jun 06 17:13 |
| Eruaran |
just reading about it now |
Jun 06 17:13 |
| schestowitz |
I wrote about it at the time, Groklaw did as well, the FSF didn’t know what to make of it (I asked) and Mandriva’s CEO denied anything was to be implied |
Jun 06 17:13 |
| Eruaran |
If there ever was, I think that changed after the incident in Africa |
Jun 06 17:17 |
| Eruaran |
In Nigeria |
Jun 06 17:18 |
| schestowitz |
How so? I know the incident well and I bring it up occasionally. |
Jun 06 17:22 |
| Eruaran |
I figure that if Mandriva had ever considered getting cozy with Microsoft, then Microsoft’s behaviour in Nigeria might have changed their minds |
Jun 06 17:24 |
| Eruaran |
just speculating |
Jun 06 17:27 |

Yes, I thought so too. What Microsoft did in Nigeria is very typical, but it got caught with its pants down and then tried to call bribery “marketing help” (typical too). What’s important is the attitude of Mandriva’s CEO. Mark Shuttleworth, on the other hand, chats with Microsoft at some capacity. |

I have a feeling that Mark Shuttleworths chats with folks from Microsoft may have a ‘know thine enemy’ aspect to them. |

But then again, antagonistic behaviour is not his style, I wouldn’t really expect to hear any ascerbic remarks from Mark Shuttleworth about Microsoft or any other corporation. |

It’s nothing to worry about. It’s not like Microsoft tries to trap him. He just wants to resolve issues around codecs. |

Oh, he can confront. He attacked Microsoft’s deals, accusing them of racketeering and all… |

The apologetic type is actually Red Hat’s new CEO, who is too polite IMHO. |

They both rejected Microsofts patent deals, and thats what counts. |

Well, the former CEO did. Same with the current one, but I’m not sure he was approached. |

Microsoft’s deals are a protection racket. This sort of behaviour should be prosecuted in court and viewed in exactly the same way as any other protection racket. |

Hasn’t Red Hat hired a legal team specifically for IP issues under the current CEO ? |
Jun 06 17:45 |
| schestowitz |
Yes, at least 2 people. |

As for Microsoft obeying low, well… whose law? http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Govern… |

Away from the system that fails to regulate itself. Just MHO. |
