tessierschestowitz_log: Sometime tonight or tomorrow we may need a few minutes of downtime while I reboot the virtual machine host that techrights is sitting on for a minor patch.Aug 24 02:09
tessierschestowitz_log: I'll let you know when it is coming exactly.Aug 24 02:09
tessierI love big uptimes but I'm paranoid about security and big uptimes mean no patches in months which is bad news.Aug 24 02:10
tessierAnother client recently had a security issue due to boneheadedness and I'm going through and making sure everything is up to snuff including being up on patches.Aug 24 02:10

schestowitzI have some post about Novell comingAug 24 19:46
schestowitzBut little substance in itAug 24 19:46

gnufreexThat is how we like them to be. Dead.  Aug 24 20:04
gnufreexJust to remove Mono evangelists from GNOME somehow. Aug 24 20:05
schestowitzWho's in GNOME that promotes it? They are followers of Novell.Aug 24 20:06
gnufreexNovell employees. Like de Icaza and his folowers. Aug 24 20:07
gnufreexThey wont stop when Novell is dead.Aug 24 20:07
gnufreexBest choice would be if De Icaza goes to work for MicrosoftAug 24 20:08
gnufreexThat would brake his credibiltyAug 24 20:08
gnufreex*breakAug 24 20:08
MinceRwould it?Aug 24 20:08
MinceRthe monomaniacs would merely apologize for m$ even moreAug 24 20:08
gnufreexWell, his follover deny that he is working for MicrosoftAug 24 20:09
gnufreexAnd call oposition for making up conspiracy theoryAug 24 20:09
gnufreexIf he goes to Microsoft, they have choice: Either drop Mono crusade, or admit that you are Microsoft shill.Aug 24 20:10
gnufreexThose who support De Icaza when he leaves for Microsoft, are Microsoft people. Aug 24 20:11
MinceRit's a small victory, but it won't stop themAug 24 20:11
MinceRthey'll advertise the "m$ loves and supports "open source" " lineAug 24 20:11
gnufreexWe could call them what they are. Microsoft astroturfers.Aug 24 20:11
MinceRand they'll call us m$ hatersAug 24 20:11
gnufreexNow thing is that if we call them MS astroturfers, we don't have hard evidenceAug 24 20:12
gnufreexThey can call us nutcases and someone might even beleive.Aug 24 20:12
gnufreexThey can get some undecided this way. If De Icaza works for Microsoft, they can't get undecided. Aug 24 20:13
gnufreex*I mean undecided ones to their side.Aug 24 20:13
schestowitz[20:08] <gnufreex> That would brake his credibiltyAug 24 20:36
schestowitzThat's why they say he'll stay in NovellAug 24 20:36
schestowitzThat's why people also say Microsoft does not buy Novell (yet), antitrust asideAug 24 20:36
schestowitz[20:10] <gnufreex> If he goes to MicrosoftAug 24 20:37
schestowitzHe didAug 24 20:37
schestowitzIn 1998Aug 24 20:37
schestowitzHe was looking for a job thereAug 24 20:37
schestowitzThey didn't  offer him one after the interview due to naturalisatioAug 24 20:37
schestowitz*ionAug 24 20:37
schestowitz[20:11] <gnufreex> Those who support De Icaza when he leaves for Microsoft, are Microsoft people. Aug 24 20:37
schestowitzThey already areAug 24 20:37
schestowitzWhich bloggers advertise mono and moonlight when they're out? Microsoft blogs.Aug 24 20:38
schestowitzThey also use this as the "Microsoft plays with open source" talking point opportunityAug 24 20:38
schestowitz[20:11] <MinceR> they'll advertise the "m$ loves and supports "open source" " lineAug 24 20:38
schestowitzbeat me to itAug 24 20:38
schestowitz[20:11] <MinceR> and they'll call us m$ hatersAug 24 20:39
schestowitzCall them "m$  haters haters"Aug 24 20:39
schestowitzMakes it doubly "irrational" for them :-)Aug 24 20:39
schestowitzDemocrats are "Republican haters"Aug 24 20:39
schestowitzRepublicans are "Democrats  haters"Aug 24 20:40
schestowitzEveryone is a haterAug 24 20:40
schestowitzDamn, I hate the taste of this water... let me refill...Aug 24 20:40
MinceRnah, they're simply free software hatersAug 24 20:43
schestowitzThey are also ifree software haters haters hatersAug 24 20:44
schestowitzI'm just a FOSS haters haterAug 24 20:44
