... As it turns out, looks like I can join you. So I'll see you then... You know H. E. Butt, that owns HEB? Turns out they merged with the Whole Foods people....
... Well, after all that, a series of lame work issues kept me from getting away to spend lots of money on beautiful food. Hope it was fun an informative. . ....
... Just google 'Rough Underbelly" ;) I just got done setting up ruby, rails, mysql 5, and apache2 on Tiger. I used mostly darwinports and it went pretty...
... Locomotive -- http://locomotive.raaum.org/home/show/HomePage -- is pretty awesome. It's got not only Rails itself, but the Ruby interpreter, RubyGems, the...
Following up from lunch: For those who want some perspective on LGPL/ BSD licensing in regards to which one is better to build a business around, here's a nice...
Isn't it really just the "required to redistribute" part that is different? From what I can tell: LGPL requires redistribution of modified source, creating the...
... I'm not sure I can buy what this guy is saying due to just one of his statements - "The success of Linux over FreeBSD..." where implies success as more...
... Hmm... Let's see... On the one hand, you have practical insight from the founder of a successful open source company - 175+ employees, 10s of millions...
... Ok, well I finally read the article. Or at least some of it. I tend not to waste time on drivel and grudge talks. He keeps posturing the BSD License as BSD...
