amarsh04 | I find a few die-hards in aus.dvd and aus.tv.digital | Aug 02 06:31 |
schestowitz | Some nwsgroups survived, but many ISPs shut down their USENET server/gateway | Aug 02 06:32 |
schestowitz | Ours included (manchester university) | Aug 02 06:32 |
amarsh04 | ours was going to discontinue, but too many people complained so we have access to astraweb.com that counts against our quota but is otherwise free with our isp access | Aug 02 06:34 |
amarsh04 | most local technical discussion is on forums.whirlpool.net.au | Aug 02 06:36 |
schestowitz | This was they can 'advertise' and censor in a USENET replacement | Aug 02 06:48 |
schestowitz | No longer decentralised | Aug 02 06:48 |
MinceR | it's a nice forum though :) | Aug 02 06:53 |

Ziomatrix | Here is an interesting comparison from last year with what WebOS offered in 2009 and Openmoko: http://seecsopenmobile.wordpress.com/2009/02/26/development-using-openmoko-framework-vs-palm-pre-webos/ since then QT is being worked into the WebOS framework along with (Adobe Flash?). | Aug 10 18:33 |
TechrightsBot-tr | Title: Development using Openmoko framework vs. Palm pre WebOS « SEECS Open Mobile Group .::. Size~: 27.92 KB | Aug 10 18:33 |
Ziomatrix | WebOS still lacks GTK compatibility to be able to port and run most Linux apps though | Aug 10 18:34 |
schestowitz | Pre seems like just Linux at the guts | Aug 10 18:36 |
Ziomatrix | also WebOS now has Native development with the PDK, but not all are able to use it since Palm is patching up security permissions (being released in patch 1.4.5) before releasing it more openly. | Aug 10 18:37 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: it is Linux when it comes down to the kernel and firmware, but with with a very eloquent API and interface overlay like OSX, but more open to devs. | Aug 10 18:38 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: it would be better though if you ask an actual WebOS developer on the nitty gritty of its internals. I suggest even looking into Precentral as many homebrew developers hang out there, there is even the #webos-internals channel. But I think you need to register to be able to chat there. | Aug 10 18:42 |
schestowitz | <Ziomatrix> also WebOS now has Native development with the PDK, but not all are able to use it since Palm is patching up security permissions (being released in patch 1.4.5) before releasing it more openly. | Aug 10 18:48 |
schestowitz | I think when they didn't meet sales target | Aug 10 18:48 |
schestowitz | I promote their device so muc | Aug 10 18:49 |
schestowitz | And defended from Apple's patent abus | Aug 10 18:49 |
schestowitz | But it was sold to HP, which I dislike | Aug 10 18:49 |
schestowitz | >>> But I think you need to register to be able to chat there. | Aug 10 18:49 |
schestowitz | Open... but registration needd | Aug 10 18:50 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: Palm claims it is to prevent anyone from executing malicious code since at the time of the release of the PDK there were no permissions worked in to prevent a program from accessing your contacts, account data and any secured cache from browsing. | Aug 10 18:53 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: that should change more so with a wider rollout of patch 1.4.5. But Palm still is like Google where they have this you got your's (homebrew) and I got mine (core developers) philosophy. Except Palm is giving more to the homebrewer and user for the time being. | Aug 10 18:54 |
schestowitz | Are they still marketing? | Aug 10 18:55 |
schestowitz | No word since HP snapped them | Aug 10 18:55 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: yes they are, they have done multiple application sales, even as going far as subsidizing developers. Sprint is releasing 1.4.5 sometime tomorrow (its already in most of Europe) and they are negotiate with carriers to sell future devices. | Aug 10 18:57 |
Ziomatrix | schestowitz: besides that, exec reshuffling and talks about how they'll continue to support WebOS (with no clear info yet) not much else is going on | Aug 10 18:58 |
schestowitz | Are they still on with the contest? | Aug 10 18:58 |
schestowitz | $100k or a million for best app? | Aug 10 18:58 |

tessier | schestowitz: I sold my freerunner | Aug 10 19:00 |
tessier | It wasn't nearly as useful as I had hoped when I bought it two summers ago. It sat around completely unused for a year and a half. Sold it a few months ago. | Aug 10 19:00 |

Ziomatrix | schestowitz: it should have ended sometime in July 2010 but they haven't updated the page: http://developer.palm.com/index.php?id=1841 I guess the aquisition has put the results on hold | Aug 10 19:00 |
Ziomatrix | tessier: how did you find it? | Aug 10 19:01 |
tessier | Ziomatrix: Useless at the time. | Aug 10 19:01 |
tessier | Ziomatrix: Maybe it has improved but I understand the whole project has lost steam by now. | Aug 10 19:01 |
Ziomatrix | tessier: Whats your opinion on Palm not being completely open about releasing the PDK to devs until security permissions are added? From what I understand PDK brings full C/C++ OpenGL ES access to core graphics libraries and hardware framework to WebOS btw. | Aug 10 19:03 |
Ziomatrix | tessier: you think that puts them in the same league as Google with Android? | Aug 10 19:03 |
Ziomatrix | tessier: from what I understand its security permissions to prevent PDK apps from accessing the contacts and communication features within WebOS to utilize automatically. In laymans terms to me they it seems they are concerned about their phones turning into zombies in the wrong hands. | Aug 10 19:05 |
Ziomatrix | tessier: or do you think they are poor excuses much like what Sony gave to remove the OtherOS feature from PS3? | Aug 10 19:06 |
schestowitz | tessier: FSF recommended Freerunner publicly. It helped show free phone can and so exist, with design still as CC licence | Aug 10 19:07 |

tessier | schestowitz: A free phone is great but unfortunately it also has to work. Which the Freerunner did not at the time of my purchase. My fault.
