When I said I'd pay my £1 worth, I didn't mean it literally. Anyway, the point about larger companies is a good one. Earliers posts talk about if games companies would be willing to give funds to develop ogg, if these donations are tax deductable surely they are much more likely to give. The question is how legal is this? If they are getting direct benift from ogg, can that make tax

Doesn't the GPL license forbid the codec from being incorporated in commercial products? Or at least have to provide their source for free? If this is the case then I doubt commercial game makers will be interested. Maybe the licence could be changed to allow the decoder to be incorporated in commercial products providing they pay a minimal amount and/or be forced to advertise the fact that

>>The game companies are interested in >>Vorbis, and this is a good thing :) I am a lead programmer at a major game company (Maxis) and Vorbis is potentially very important to us. I am pushing to make it the default streaming sound format (e.g. non-sound effects) for all future titles. This assumes that it works as well as anticipated. Other subdivisions of Electronic Arts are

AutoDesk now offers a free 15 day demo CD of AutoCad. I hope some of the talanted wine developers take the opportunity to get the CD and try to get it to work. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/item/0,,616392-123112,00.html In my opinion there are two windows application that are more important than others and that is AutoCad and Quark express. Linux does not have good alternatives to theese, and for

Has anyone tested AutoCad 2000 with any recent wine ? Once upon a time I got Autocad R13 to work, only toolbars and screenrefresh was not working to 100%, then it broke completely, and 10 months ago when I tested with AutoCad 2000 it was still broken. Has anyone done any testing recently ? AutoCad and Quark express are two very important pieces of software for wine, since they both lack

In Windows explorer the computer (Penguin) and share (Ring) show up, but when I try to access the share, I get the following message: \\Penguin\Ring is not accessible The share name was not found. Be shure you typed it correctly. I have Samba set up on another Linux machine (OldPenguin) in the same network, and it works fine. Both computers run Red Hat 7.1 and Samba 2.0.7 (which came

I sent the first version of this email to webmaster@xiph.org yesterday (as instructed on the www.xiph.org web site), but I have not received any reply. So I'm trying vorbis-dev list. I've joined the list only a few weeks ago as soon as I became aware of the project. I searched through your web site, but I could not see any instruction on how to donate resources (money, hw, etc.) to the

Hello All, I want to ask about CentOS and money. Please do not start some kind of shitstorm over this, it isn't productive. I have just been looking at archive.org to see when the paypal option went missing from the donate menu at centos.org. I can't pin it down, but it was there on October 16, 2010 and isn't now, so that's the information I have on that point. There was a

Hello, It seems to me like one of the next high priority tools should be a Windows ogg->wav decoder. I think this would help speed up the acceptance of Vorbis since people could just make their own audio CDs from it. Is anyone working on this? Does the decoder_example provide most of what is needed to do it? Is it just a matter of wrapping the WAV structure around it and compiling it on a

Dear R Users, I know issues like this have come up in the past. I am wondering how many people would be interested in an online mechanism for donating to the R Foundation or for becoming supporting members. Right now, the link for it is somewhat buried on the R home page, and once you get there, the options are to mail or fax a form. IIRC, Paypal was not a good option due to some fees, but

I have a few thoughs and questions about donating to Xiph that I hop you have a minute for. Here we go: == "Who donated what" list == As it seems we don't have a "Who donated what" list. I thought creating such a list could increase motivation to donate to some parties. What I currently have in mind would be to start listing donations from now on below the current content

I know this doesn''t necessarily fall under AJAX, but does anyone have any plans of donating a RTE (Rich Text Editor) plugin to scriptaculous?

Hi all, I don't have very high hopes, but does anyone happen to have available some kind of colocation services in the Bay Area that they could donate to LLVM? I would really like to establish a proper LLVM lab somewhere instead of relying on hardware which is residing at various companies. I would be willing to personally donate some hardware, but don't have any place to put it. My

Dear R developers---I just spent half a day debugging an R program, which had two bugs---I selected the wrongly named variable, which turns out to have been a scalar, which then happily multiplied as if it was a matrix; and another wrongly named variable from a data frame, that triggered no error when used as a[["name"]] or a$name . there should be an option to turn on that throws an

Can't offer it in the bay area, but i can offer space in oregon state university (which is where the osuosl machines reside). http://osuosl.org/services Why do you need access if you have people willing to handle support tickets and remote console/power control cards? I have yet to see a problem that i could not solve (since the cards can display console, control power to the machine, etc)

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.

I took a little foray into pricing out IP Phones for my home pbx yesterday. $75-$750 seems to be quite a range, so I took a closer look. Cisco, for example, has different models such as the 7940 and 7960 which seem to only differ in the software. And buying a Cisco 7920 should cost you $500 w/o a license, and $200 more with a license? It seems to me that these prices are substantially
