UK Encryption ban legislation {from: [comp.risks] RISKS DIGEST 18.95}
I think this is an issue of serious interest to many of the subscribers of these lists; it would effectively ban a lot of security-related tools that many of use now find indispensable, e.g. ssh, pgp. ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Date: 21 Mar 1997 10:11:57 GMT From: rja14@cl.cam.ac.uk (Ross Anderson) Approved: R.E.Wolff@BitWizard.nl Subject: DTI proposals on key escrow The British

Hi List, I recently signed up with Voxbone to get some International DIDs. I was just about to purchase a DID this morning... but when I went to get it.... voxbone wanted the end user's address information. So I started to put it in... unfortunately... the end-user is in the U.S....but the only options are for a few select cities in GERMANY! I don't understand. Is there some

"Fixing the Caller-ID Problem", by John Todd for O'ReillyNet
This seems like a piece members of this list would find interesting... === There is growing concern over the interaction of VoIP systems with the legacy PSTN, and the transmission of caller identity data--most notably, Caller ID on the PSTN. It is not always possible, or obvious how, to handle Caller ID data when moving to or from VoIP and the PSTN networks. There are even business models

Binary Matrices
I'm wanting to perform analysis (e.g. using eigen()) of binary matrices - i.e. matrices comprising 0s and 1s. For example: n<-1000 test.mat<-matrix(round(runif(n^2)),n,n) eigen(test.mat,only.values=T) Is there a more efficient way of setting up test.mat, as each cell only requires a binary digit? I imagine R is setting up a structure which could contain n^2 floats. Thanks in advance

constructing a dataframe from a database of newspaper articles
I am hoping for some assistance with formatting a large text file which consists of a series of individual records. Each record includes specific labels/field names (a sample of 1 record (one of the longest ones) is below - at end of post. What I want to do is reformat the data, so that each individual record becomes a row (some cells will have a lot of text). For example, the column

OT: Please comment on Dvorak's troll
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1812887,00.asp Specifically, his assertion that ISP's would sniff traffic and block, say, the SIP port. You could play wack-a-mole with port numbers, no? Also a community based, Freenet style of encryption implementation for "free" VoIP traffic would address this issue. I raise this to the list because I'm sure there's a grain of

Re: New Standard/Daylight time-change dates in rhel4u2 butnot centos4.2?
The laws already exist: Disturbing the peace, Misappropriation of public funds, Prohibition on unfunded mandates. What's lacking is prosecutors, judges, and juries who see the politicians as getting in the way of the statesmen and the people. To drag this back towards On Topic, it seems to me that the ntp folks might be petitioned to write up and submit to the Congress, a paper

For loop indicies
I would like to run a for loop with an index going from 0 to 499 but the following seems to miss out the first value: C <- 499 for (i in 0:C) The alternative is: C <- 500 for (i in 1:C) { #Then every time I use i, I replace it with i-1 } Is this a good way to do it or is tere a better way?

'symbols' not plotting correct circle radii
Hi there. I have been plotting some circles using 'symbols', with radii representing my data, but the radii looked incorrect. It seems to happen with a single circle too: Symbols ( 0, 0, circles = 40, xlim = c(-40, 40), ylim= c(-40, 40)) If I put a ruler up to my monitor (technology!) to compare the radius with the axes, the circle isn't radius 40; it is closer to 15...

FileCheck wishlist
Hi, I'm looking for some feedback on pain points people have with FileCheck in terms of missing features to help people interested in working on FileCheck to prioritize the work accordingly. I am personally interested in improving FileCheck on 2 issues whenever time permits it: * being able to test for consecutive lines in arbitrary order, i.e. something akin to CHECK-DAG blocks where
