• @floschie OTOH you’re looking awfully apologetic towards an aggressive company brandishing their “mines” in the face of competitors. #swpat #
• Even if they’re not exactly repeating «Patently Absurd» http://tr.im/URxO the implicit threat is quite clear. Of course IBM now backs off… #

• @support @heryshoe looks #spammy! #
• #swpat Is IBM deciding to show how useless are patent promises by suing? http://tr.im/UFHG Is this true? #
• @glynmoody they’re proving just how valuable are all those useless patent promises #swpat 🙂 #
• .oO( not at all valuable ) #
• Eagerly expecting the new OTRS::ITSM (supposed to land by the end of March) with Change Management Process and PINK Verify certification. #
• @igama estás a estudar ITIL Foundation V3? #
• @support @willexceltesol is definitely #spammy (and with a quite evident bug in their software). #
• Excelente 🙂 ♺ @GabrielfSilva: A couve de Bruxelas: http://bit.ly/aitzyz #
• @jwildeboer I half-agree, IBM is merely not attacking free software in general more than they usually do. #
• @jwildeboer What they do is prove how worthless patent promises are (even without being bought by another company). #
• @jwildeboer so if you build a commercial free software you’re provoking the established commercial patent promisers? #
• @jwildeboer hardware is software (except in materials) and, each time more rearely, sometimes unchangeable. #
• @jwildeboer with the current minefield, what you’re saying is that there can’t be no commercial free software, and that’s just natural. #
• @jwildeboer oh, I haven’t been surprised about this eventuality ever since I read those promises. #
• @jwildeboer and, BTW, Red Hat’s promise is not much better, sadly. #
• @jwildeboer Red Hat may know that the instant they break it they loose a lot of goodwill and valuable human resources, but it may not matter #
• But what if they’re bought by someone who doesn’t care? #
• @jwildeboer You’re screwed if you have a patent infringement case either willfully or not. This *must* be criticised. #
• @pedromelo confiar nos certificados dos browsers é que é um risco, isto é 🙂 #
• #WTF uma televisão exigir o formato Betacam Digital para enviar um vídeo para produção, e com montes de considerandos arcaicos *sigh* #

• @charlesschulz:I loved it, and it’s only possible to make new stories thanks to the story’s copyright status 🙂 #
• interesting, #elementary bubbles work well with statusnet but NOT with twitter… wonder what’s the difference? #

• @support heryshoe looks #spam-my #
• @baltha yeah, I know… it was a joke (as Ubuntu is becoming each release more friendly to proprietary software). Hence… 🙂 #

• @baltha:or perhaps Roger Rabbit 😉 !ubuntu #
• ♺ @charlesschulz: @european commission: even Alex Brown dropped the ball on ooxml. Stop taking calls from the BSA! #

• @freemor: thanks to a friend with a multimeter and a generic charger I found out it was the power cord instead. my !olpc is working 🙂 #
• @forteller I hope it’s not half as memory hungry as in current releases, or it’ll be the death of it in mobile usage #
• ♺ @glynmoody: MS Fails the Standards Test http://bit.ly/9oZlV5 coming from someone who played a big part in ISO process, this is big #ooxml #

• «at a crossroads, (…) without a change of direction the entire #OOXML project is now surely heading for failure» Alex Brown #
• http://tr.im/U7dZ «at a crossroads, () without a change of direction the entire #OOXML project is now surely heading for failure» Alex Brown #
• «Standards can be withdrawn at any time if that is the will of the Countries that participate …» Alex Brown #

• ♺ @jneves: momento WTF do dia: Plano Técnológico da Educação enviou para escolas computadores às centenas c/ Vista. não se liga a um domínio #
• ♺ @jerezim: #ACTA people!Please help commenting/highlighting the key points of the 20100118 leak on http://ur1.ca/si30 #
• @support @davidp looks like a smart spammer (even adds tags), but will you just look at it’s website… doesn’t it look like one? #
• This morning my !olpc xo 1 with !fedora 11 ran out of battery while on. now it doesn’t even charge. Help! #
• ♺ @bigbrovar: ♻ @SirajSoft’>@SirajSoft: HOT NEWS :: Meego now available for Download for Nokia !N900 #

• @bugabundo não terem nenhum iPay (não é typo) grande na loja da 5ª Avenida na semana passada é, para mim, sinal q não estão prontos 🙂 #
• over & out #

• #OpenSSL is 1.0.0 today. Congratulations 🙂 #
• @yamanickill It will surely be much shorter than watever piece of crapware turned Free Software coming from NVidia 🙂 #
• @x1101 better idea: how about selecting hardware that supports and/or is supported by Free Software? #
• Yay, !fedora 12 used to suspend so well on this laptop, not any longer… which fscking updated borked it? 😐 Now it’s panic everytime 😐 #
• @lopo possivelmente 🙂 #

• @jwildeboer thought XBMC could display DLNA sources, but I have none to try. #
• @jwildeboer well, it’s an excellent media server (video and audio too), so not just picture viewer. #
• I erased a lot of users from my blog. They all looked just like spam accounts, but if I’ve missed you by accident, use a more clear account. #
• @playya gnome-autogen.sh removed from !elmdentica #thx for insisting! #
• @jwildeboer The web without flash and it’s puny attempt of replacement (silverlie) is SO MUCH BETTER! 😀 #
• @jwildeboer perhaps the gnash team would be the best suited one 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer I’m with you on that 🙂 #tnparty #website #
• @jwildeboer So what you want to have is verified accounts, not end of anonymous 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer me too, but that is the price for protecting the honest people that can be punished by the dishonest people. #
• @jwildeboer at my free software blog I “fix” that by having much more strict spam check rules for non registered users. #
• @jwildeboer well, yes it really exists unless you control all variables. It’s not easy, sometimes, and it can be a real hassle, but possible #
• @jwildeboer ok, now you lost me… «Think of the children» is now an approved argument? 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer yes, I know, but it is also a fact that «think of the children» has never been anything but a slippery slope getting worse b/day #
• @jwildeboer all have limits, so I say go for it if you mean ending anonymous comments in the places you control because y reached yr limit #
• @jwildeboer but you seem to defend end of anonimous information, and that only weakens the good guys who are scared 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer I point out that I never called you anything of the sort 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer you should really read the link @jmcesteves sent: http://tr.im/TFgl you’re on the side of Craig Mundie (yes, that one) 🙂 #
• @jwildeboer as I view it, if you do it in a broad overachieving way, it is bad. If you do it in your own turf (wiki, blog, etc)… #
• @jwildeboer … then it’s your prorogative. Demanding the end of anonimity overall has a negative net result, even if it has a few pluses. #
