| schestowitz | >> researching it? Also, what if I just 'steal' their traffic and thunder? | Oct 13 01:20 |

| schestowitz | > Haiku-OS gets too little coverage, but would probably not be worth more | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > than an article or three in TM. It's not too pertinent to TR. Maybe | Oct 13 01:20 |

| schestowitz | >> This morning I said to Rianne (because she likes Daniel's articles in | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> general.. for years now)... is it worth doing an article with just a | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> bunch of links? I mean, what can I add or say that he didn't already say? | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> This kind of thinking, I believe, attracted people to techrights. It's | Oct 13 01:20 |

| schestowitz | >> | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> So... the main question to ask is, what are today's common myths and | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> what about? | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > I'm not so sure. I don't talk /to/ people much about computing here. | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > The proposition "to" is correct. Usually people have no idea about any | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > of the technologies, so talking almost never turns into a conversation | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > "with" them, at least as far as ICT goes. | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> I think we dispelled some LF myths and EPO's image is not | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> better adjusted to what it really is. And EPO workers actually like | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | >> that! They want things to change. | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > It is possible or desirable to try to collaborate with the EFF about the | Oct 13 01:20 |
| schestowitz | > EPO or at least about software patents in Europe? I kind of gave up on | Oct 13 01:20 |

| schestowitz | > Too bad. That is a big thing. The evidence of M$ product killing in | Oct 13 01:20 |

| schestowitz | > is an excuse to prepare something on that again. Open Standards are | Oct 13 01:21 |
| schestowitz | > always a good topic, too. ODF 1.3 is current but there are others. | Oct 13 01:21 |
| schestowitz | Are the above topics you have in-depth knowledge about? The main issue is, I want to stick to topics I won't get wrong on the underlying facts. | Oct 13 01:21 |

| schestowitz | Reviewing your suggestion again, I don't know BSDs too well. | Oct 13 06:45 |
| schestowitz | Here's a question: should we explore the Gates scandal? Or have we done enough? I see it's already discussed a lot online. RMS 'bought him a month'... got people 'off his scent'... | Oct 13 06:45 |
| schestowitz | As for openwashing, I think I can more quickly tackle that in Daily Links. More quickly. As we have limited resources. | Oct 13 06:45 |
| schestowitz | Another question: id it worth broadening the scope of TM? It already covers Python a lot. Should we add Perl or whatever they plan to call it next? Maybe some other esoteric OSes? Should I cover US patents more (as before)? Maybe return to covering Microsoft closely as we did a decade ago? | Oct 13 06:46 |

| schestowitz | Just to be sure, techrights unlike TuxMachines does not need a social control media account, right? It would also be inconsistent with what we said about it. | Oct 13 07:43 |
