[H]omer | Good morning | Jun 22 10:52 |
[H]omer | Anyone awake on this rainy Sunday morning? | Jun 22 10:52 |
tessier | Hi [H]omer | Jun 22 10:52 |
tessier | I'ma ke | Jun 22 10:52 |
tessier | awake | Jun 22 10:52 |
[H]omer | Hello there - what time is it with you? | Jun 22 10:52 |
tessier | I wish it was rainy here. It's gonna be another 100F day here on the outskirts of San Diego | Jun 22 10:52 |
tessier | 3:01am here | Jun 22 10:52 |
[H]omer | Ah | Jun 22 10:53 |
[H]omer | 100F? Ouch! | Jun 22 10:53 |
[H]omer | I was going to do some gardening today ... but no chance now. | Jun 22 10:53 |
[H]omer | It's been a slow weekend. Not much happening at all. | Jun 22 10:53 |
schestowitz | Homer, mind if I repost you excellent message about OOXML (from COLA)? The one with 20 refs? I'll attritute. | Jun 22 10:54 |
[H]omer | Go right ahead | Jun 22 10:54 |
schestowitz | ta. | Jun 22 10:55 |
schestowitz | I'll also embed that movies of yours. ;-) | Jun 22 10:55 |
schestowitz | *movie | Jun 22 10:55 |
[H]omer | which one? | Jun 22 10:55 |
schestowitz | Do you have several vidz on OOXML? | Jun 22 10:55 |
[H]omer | erm ... not that I remember | Jun 22 10:56 |
schestowitz | Ahh.. okay... Bollywood would fit well because BN.com has many Indian readers. | Jun 22 10:56 |
[H]omer | Oh *that* one | Jun 22 10:56 |
[H]omer | Yeah :) | Jun 22 10:56 |
[H]omer | Funny as Hell | Jun 22 10:56 |
schestowitz | MS India head jumped ship possibly due to the OOXML fiasco | Jun 22 10:57 |
schestowitz | They seem to have bribed charities, you know? | Jun 22 10:57 |
tessier | A Bollywood vid about OOXML? | Jun 22 10:57 |
schestowitz | H-P is essentially hiring a felon before conviction, I suppose. | Jun 22 10:57 |
[H]omer | Yeah, I was reading some old BN articles about that earlier | Jun 22 10:57 |
schestowitz | Yes, <tessier>. It's in Homer's homepage. I'll link to it soon. | Jun 22 10:57 |
schestowitz | I'm not sure if it's related to OSUSE's release, but there has been a lot of pressure on the server in recent days (since a day before the release). | Jun 22 10:59 |
[H]omer | Here's the code: | Jun 22 10:59 |

schestowitz | Yes, got it earlier. | Jun 22 10:59 |
schestowitz | Did a "view source". | Jun 22 10:59 |
[H]omer | ah | Jun 22 10:59 |
schestowitz | BTW. any words from that Debian developer we heard from, who worries about Mono too? We need the truth, but Groklaw and others struggle because there's lots of obscure stuff (no OSP). | Jun 22 11:00 |
schestowitz | Eben never returned an E-mail, so I'll take that as "disinterest" | Jun 22 11:01 |
schestowitz | New comment in reply you, homer: http://boycottnovell.com/2008/02/15/m... | Jun 22 11:01 |
[H]omer | Either that or Eben is still looking into it | Jun 22 11:02 |
schestowitz | Just posted from Germany (maybe that troll) with an E-mail address that's English. | Jun 22 11:02 |
schestowitz | The name he posts under is just some garbled mess of chars and code words. | Jun 22 11:02 |
schestowitz | I never spoke to Eben before. I spoke to Peter Brown and Stallman several times in the past, but never to Eben. I assume he knows me though. | Jun 22 11:03 |
[H]omer | http://boycottnovell.com/2008/02/15/mon... | Jun 22 12:11 |
[H]omer | When will these idiots stop claiming that I am "denying" or "forcing" people to do something? I'm not "forcing" anyone to embrace Freedom. | Jun 22 12:12 |
schestowitz | It's spin doctoring. I've just found some good RMS quotes that describe exactly what you're experiencing here. | Jun 22 12:16 |
[H]omer | What's the URL for that "Freedom Vs Power" article on gnu.org (or fsf)? | Jun 22 12:23 |
[H]omer | Got it: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/fr... | Jun 22 12:24 |
schestowitz | I posted a comment a few moments ago that related to this aspect as well. | Jun 22 12:29 |
schestowitz | Homer, I warmly recommend that you watch this talk: http://manchester.fsuk.org/blog/2008... | Jun 22 12:29 |
[H]omer | Not sure, but I think I may have seen it. I'll have another look. | Jun 22 12:49 |
[H]omer | Yes, I've got it (and seen it). It starts out a bit slow and predictable, but it quickly gets better. Overall it's excellent. | Jun 22 12:52 |
[H]omer | Funny ending too | Jun 22 12:52 |
[H]omer | I want one of those hats | Jun 22 12:53 |
[H]omer | :) | Jun 22 12:53 |
schestowitz | They don't make them anyone. That's what he says anyway. | Jun 22 12:56 |

[H]omer | LOL! That'll bring the shills out in full force | Jun 22 14:57 |
[H]omer | They'll be frothing at the mouth | Jun 22 14:57 |
