Red Hat joins Interoperability Vendor Alliance

02/16/2007  IIII
Relevance: 5.35
Red Hat has announced it has joined the Interoperability Vendor Alliance, an organisation created originally by Microsoft to improve interoperability with non-Microsoft products (is interoperability between Microsoft products ever a problem?) JBoss, now a division of Red Hat, originally partnered with Microsoft back in 2005 and one of the areas of effort was around interoperability. Therefore, this move by Red Hat can be seen as a logical extension of that effort.[Hmmm... Have you ever tried opening Word documents using different versions of MS Word? So much for inra-MS interoperability! - dcparris]

The Future of Apps: Cross Platform Compatibility

06/18/2007  IIII
Relevance: 4.20
These days, virtualization options are a dime a dozen. VMware, Parallels, Win4Lin and so on. But what about running applications natively on a different platform from what they were originally designed for? Ah, now there is the real question: is their enough demand for this?

Is Ubuntu Christian Edition Needed?

09/16/2006  IIIIIIIIII
Relevance: 4.17
Despite good intentions and an so called"apparent need," I'd say that the developers and supporters (for Ubuntu CE) are going in the wrong direction...they're trying to repackage an already great distro and re-brand it with a label and an idea. It's not working and it's taking away from what they originally set out to accomplish.

Looking for the next Net business

09/27/2007  II
Relevance: 4.01
The Internet most of us experience is not the World of Ends suggested by the end-to-end system design concepts around which the Net was originally architected and built. Instead we have something that is faster-than-dialup, and faster-than-it-used-to-be; but is not The Net. Instead it is the part of the Net that's left in a pipe that's optimized for television, for one-way few-to-many"content delivery" and for locking users into client roles, while servers labor somewhere else.

OLPC spinoff in talks with four laptop makers

05/23/2008  IIIII
Relevance: 4.00
Not long ago it was unclear whether the PC--originally conceived as a US$100 laptop for children in developing countries--would ever become a reality after a long series of delays. Now the XO laptop seems on the verge of becoming a hot item, and all the research that went into it is leading down divergent paths.

Introduction to NIS, the Network Information Service

12/15/2006  III
Relevance: 3.97
NIS, released by Sun in the 1980s, was the first"prime time" administrative database. It was originally called the Sun Yellow Pages, but eventually had to be renamed for legal reasons. NIS commands still begin with the letters yp, so it's hard to forget the original name. NIS was widely adopted among Unix vendors and is supported by every Linux distribution.
