He doesn't seem to have an understanding of what they talk about and according this video which we put here recently, he is likely to appoint pro-software patents figures/lobbyists as advisors. Some of these issues were also discussed in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].

Well, If McCain wins, I think software patents may well become a smaller problem. We'll all have so much more to worry about ... :)

Looking at that video, will McCain change anything at all if he gets into office? I mean will he help the country or help destroy the country. You Americans need a leader that is not evil (i.e Bush), and will actually lead you to a better economy, fix the IP system and help prevent government corruption. Your best chance at doing that is with Obama.

Watching this, I was expecting him to give some complicated answer about software patents that showed he knew nothing about them. I wasn't expecting a flat out NO! Wow, that guy would be a great leader... :D
With over 6 million pounds in debt (nearly 10 million US dollars) we guess it's likely some other company will take over the site (if it deems it worthwhile)
The crash of this bubble isn't just inevitable, it's already happening and receding sporadically because of false announcements about money that does not actually exist (to "buy time")
When Debian wanted to stage a seemingly legitimate election it needed to have more than one candidate running; so eventually the female partner of a geek rose to the challenge (had no coding skills at all, no technical history in Debian) and lost to the "incumbent German"
Even back in the 90s many people converted programs from one language to another. That could invalidate copyleft (and copyright), which already existed
