.../* if (((keysym>=33) && (keysym < 'A')) || --- > if (((keysym>=33) && (keysym < 'A')) || 1577d1575 < */ Hope this patch is recieved in the spirit in which it is sent. Wine has come so far in the last two years and whilst the goalposts are constantly being moved by MS is certainly nearing an extremely significant milestone. I know I can wait for Borland to produce a C++ version of Kylix and then port my app over to native linux but in the short term Wine is the only method I can use to get my app onto Linux and away from dua...

The nature of the vulnerability does not change just because we call it a ?kernel? instead of a ?library?. A vulnerable kernel is a vulnerable kernel, and does not require that we fix all the other problems on the system in order to fix the kernel. I?m with Gordon: someone certainly should fix...

...ree that a t-test or chi-square test ot CI or ... "answers" the question of interest, through to a variety of realistic regression problems. Agreement on some minimal set of steps needed to do an adequate analysis would be a necessary part of the process. This insists that the goalposts are always at the same height. Such an exercise could be highly insightful, and a useful contribution to the public scientific good. Research questions: To a smaller or larger extent, R is a component of a research exercise in the development of statistical computational abilities. Perha...

Hi all, I'm very happy to see the release of 3.3.0. One of the features I was waiting for are striped replicated volumes. We plan to store KVM images (from a OpenStack installation) on it. I read through the docs and found the following phrase: "In this release, configuration of this volume type is supported only for Map Reduce workloads." What does that mean exactly? Hopefully not,
