Folks, I fully understand the emotional need to respond to one who throws around terms like "Communist", "Tyrannical", etc. even if ostensibly framed as a rhetorical question. Certain terms and phrases are by nature pejorative and I;m sure the OP knew this when he entered his post. My feeling was the OP is either an ignorant, unappreciative, self-centered, and emotionally

I intend to release a project I wrote with Rails. What is the right licensing scheme for a web application (content managing system) which could grow with plugins and add-ons ? Personally, I would prefer the GPL but does that mean any add-on to the CMS (like task management) will have to be GPL ? If some people contribute to the code could it still be double-licenced so that the people who

Hello Ivo: One more from me and I suppose a retort by you and that's it ... no flame war please. Let's see if we can keep this discussion objective. I've had enough life experience to have seen and heard the mistakes you've made many times. Point by point: * This is a tech list that I joined a number of years ago because of a serious intent to use the Speex product in my

I just confirmed the following bug on my firefox. http://secunia.com/advisories/14820/ Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20050219 Firefox/1.0 (I think my firefox is a month or two behind, from ports, but the advisary indicates both 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 are effected.)

What video card are you using? Xorg driver or proprietary binary thing? The next thing I'd do is boot the last kernel under which you saw "normal" performance. If booting the older kernel doesn't fix the problem, then the problem is probably the X11 server. At that point, I'd start using "yum downgrade" to revert individual components, and reboot until you

I'm excited about SJava, and I'ld love to get it working, but can't get past loading the package. .First.lib fails on this statement: > library.dynam("SJava", "SJava", "C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw1091/library") Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library

Hello Jean: Big mistake!! One of the three things that a supplier should never discuss is politics ... that's business 101. Speex may be a very good product, but we will never use it because of the politics that you espouse ... some of us out here believe strongly in the free market. And we also know that monopolies can't exist because entrepreneurs will always exploit the

Yes I can make or tell my customers to install MinGW, but if MinGW is installed, then I don't need LLVM. (More about this further ahead) > You're welcome to think

An amusing afterthought : What is a rival software (ahem!) was planting this, hoping for a divide between S and R communities.or at the very minimum hoping for some amusement. an assumption or even a pretense of stealing credit is one of the easiest ways of sparking intellectual discord Most users of softwares don't really care about who gets credit ( Who wrote Windows Vista ,or Mac OS or

Folks, I *suggest* that little or no reply to this is warranted. It's just the statements of an old fart trying to make a (slightly) better environment for all of us. These thoughts are offered for consideration and use as you see fit. For some, "Hey, that'll work for me too" is the hoped for result. No discussion is intended or warranted, IMO.

Customers/clients unhappy with the inefficiency, extra CPU and RAM usage, and performance penalty of JIT. They require a faster, more efficient solution. The solution is to fully compile programs to native code at the time of
