Dear Listers, I've been a big fan of R since graduate school. After working in the industry for years, I haven't had many opportunities to use R and am mainly using SAS. However, I am still forcing myself really hard to stay close to R by reading R-help and books and writing R code by myself for fun. But by and by, I start realizing I have hard time to keep up with R and am afraid that I

Arnaud, Thanks for removing the warning. I suspect that many users still using IE6 are doing so because of their IT department (rather than personal preference). IMHO, browser evangelism is slightly outside the scope of the NUT project :-) On Thu, Sep 3, 2009 at 8:31 AM, Arnaud Quette<aquette at alioth.debian.org> wrote: > Author: aquette > Date: Thu Sep 3 12:31:10 2009 > New

Dear All, Ages ago I posted to this mailing list asking for advice about to evangelize the use of R in an international public administration where the fact that R is free is not a decisive factor (actually its being "freeware" may even be seen negatively). After a long time, I think it is worthwhile asking the question again and see what suggestions other users have. Anot...

Mmm, I (respectfully) disagree. One of the unstated objectives of mechanisms like this list is to evangelize the platform. Obviously, we all want it to do well.

You've mistaken me for someone who doesn't understand why DVCS is important. Please stop using this list to evangelize git. My point is that we have QA and release engineering processes that work on each branch independently and work best with chronological build #s *per branch*. I would like to think that git generation numbers are sufficient for this so we don't need to resort to timestamps or tags. Mercuri...

We've had a few requests for a place where advocacy efforts can be discussed. I've created a new mailing list, advocacy@xiph.org. This is going to be a place where we: - discuss adoption strategies - coordinate vendor support requests - help coordinate promotion activity I encourage everyone who is interested in promoting, advocating and evangelizing Vorbis, Icecast and other Xiph.org

All, I've got a Samba 3 PDC serving numerous XP clients, and I'm getting an error I wouldn't have expected. When trying to rename an XP machine joined to the domain (via "netdom renamecomputer"), the command fails unless the specified domain user has UID 0. The command in question: netdom renamecomputer %COMPUTERNAME% /newname:%NEWNAME% /userD:DOMAIN\USER

Hi all, I have already evangelized my management to use Rails instead of a Java framework for a newly starting projects - they are OK with Ruby, Rails, seems i won the ''will it scale?'' round too, however there is one final round: performance. These guys are really hooked on numbers. (I know, i know, i have bee...

Hi, A few days ago PDC crashed and I setup a new PDC with the same domain name. I have recreated the user accounts but when the users login, windows xp clients create a new profile. Is there a way to make the windows clients use the old profiles? Thanks. -- Erol

Hi, Is there any Royalty one needs to pay when using the inbuilt exisimg asterisk on hold music or when using any other mp3 from a music album. I think we need to pay for the later, but I am not sure if we need to pay for the inbuilt asterisk(freepbx) on hold music. -- Deepak --------------------------------- Yahoo!

I just got Samba + LDAP up and running as a PDC. If I list the users in the LDAP directory with pdbedit -L I see: root:0:test nobody:99:nobody aster$:1001:Computer toast$:1002:TOAST$ fordprefect:1003:Test Account Shouldn't there be an Administrator account and no root? I don't want my Linux root account even remotely confused or associated with a Samba/LDAP

Hello, I am a small business owner in need for a solution that automatically answers an incoming call, prompts the caller via touch-tone menu ("press 1 to leave a message, press 0 to speak to a representative") and will ring my (real) phone ONLY if requested by caller. I know that Asterisk is capable of all the logic behind what I described above. However, I couldn't find a

...pplications. Firstly, he advocates you organize your application deeper than the default Rails skeleton; for example he says to put all of your models under a "physical" directory (e.g. app/models/physical) and to separate them by module (e.g. Physical::Projects::Project). He also evangelizes Postgresql instead of MySQL, and suggests not using migrations at all but using raw SQL to create the tables, because he recommends that you NOT treat the database like a dumb data store (something the rest of the Rails community seems to do and be okay with) and make good use of check co...

I'm in the process of replacing a Samba 2.2.12 PDC with Samba 3.0.14a-Debian. An LDAP database serves as the user data store, and I've made no changes to the Samba 2.2.x-compatible LDAP records. Since I don't relish LDAP schema changes, I've specified ldapsam_compat as my passdb backend; I figured that since I was already running a compatible LDAP schema, there was no need to make

...ration that''s been discussed. * Wasn''t compatible with mocha/FlexMock. Fixed now. But again, it came back to ubiquity, which is a pretty hard problem to overcome. Seems to me that the best way to get RSpec adopted is to find some more visible, prolific plugin programmers and evangelize them to start using RSpec, so it''s not some "neat fringe thing", but a solid, respectable alternative to Test::Unit.
