Committers or Contributors to Eclipse.org projects
Reading this document will help you understand the legal documentation requirements of your project. While committers are ultimately responsible for ensuring that content in the Eclipse.org projects contains the appropriate legal documentation, it is always appreciated when contributors can deliver content that requires minimal work to be integrated into the codebase.
Redistributors of Eclipse.org content
Reading this document will help you choose whether you need to modify, remove, or add to any of the Eclipse.org legal documentation. You may be redistributing Eclipse.org content as part of your product.
Developers of Eclipse-based content or products
Even if you are not necessarily redistributing Eclipse.org content itself, reading this document will help you to determine whether or not you wish to adopt some or all of the described framework, for documenting your own content.
Users of Eclipse-based content or products
Reading this document will help you to locate the various legal notices and agreements that govern your use of the content.
In this document you will be introduced to the basic Eclipse.org legal documentation styles; Agreements, Abouts, Licenses and Notices. For each of these styles, we have provided a brief overview, some background information and instructions pertaining to where you can find them as well as where you should place them. After describing the framework used for legal documentation in Eclipse-based content, this document will explain how you should redistribute Eclipse.org content and will offer suggestions as to how you may wish to deal with the delivery of legal documentation when including non-Eclipse.org content in your product.
Most software products are delivered with a single license file. This file is usually found in the root directory of the installation or in some obviously-named directory such as "license" or "legal." This straightforward mechanism is used even if there are differently licensed components in the product. In those cases, the single license file may actually contain multiple licenses or notices and it is usually clear which parts of the product each license or notice applies to.
Eclipse-based content is highly modularized to facilitate ease of delivery, extensibility, and upgradeability. Important modular concepts in the Eclipse space include plug-ins, plug-in fragments (herein called "fragments"), and features. A typical Eclipse installation may potentially include plug-ins and features authored and/or distributed by many different parties including the Eclipse Foundation, other open-source organizations, and commercial vendors.
The content that is developed and maintained at Eclipse.org is a very large codebase that is continuously evolving and may be accessed in a multitude of ways.
For example:
- Some parts of the content are constantly changing with updates being committed on an almost continuous basis. With committers on a single project spread across many time zones development may be occurring 24x7.
- Most of the content is licensed under the Eclipse Public License Version 1.0 ("EPL"), although at the discretion of the Board of Directors a project may be dual-licensed, or even be maintained under another license altogether. However, the codebase also contains redistributions of many packages maintained at sites other than Eclipse.org, or content based on such packages. For example, there may be redistributions of packages from the Apache Software Foundation such as Ant and Tomcat, or code based on parts of such packages. These packages may be offered under licenses other than the EPL.
- The content at Eclipse.org may be accessed and downloaded in many ways. Most projects create builds on a regular basis. Some projects create many builds for different platforms and configurations on a daily basis. Because these builds are created straight from the Eclipse.org source code repositories, recently committed updates are found in the builds. It is also possible to access content directly from the source code repositories or to download new or updated features using the Eclipse Update Manager.
All of these content characteristics call for a modular approach to legal documentation. Consequently, any distribution of content originating from Eclipse.org should contain notices as described in the following sections.
The Basics:
The top-level umbrella agreement is the Eclipse Foundation Software User Agreement. The Software User Agreement, to be called "SUA" herein, is not actually a license - it does not grant any rights to use the software and that is why it must reference other legal notices and agreements. The main purpose of the SUA is to describe the potential layout of the legal documentation in the accompanying content.
The Details:
The most important wording is that which says that the EPL applies to all the content unless otherwise indicated. Note that although the EPL is used by all projects at the Eclipse Foundation, at the discretion of the Board of Directors a project may be dual-licensed, or even be maintained under another license altogether.
The rest of the text describes the other kinds of notices or licenses that may be found in the content. There is also a short paragraph under the heading "Cryptography" which lets you know that the content may contain cryptography.
You will also often see on many of the download pages at Eclipse.org, text that says:
All downloads are provided under the terms and conditions of the Eclipse Foundation Software User Agreement unless otherwise specified.
The Location:
The SUA usually appears in the root directory of Eclipse builds as the file named "notice.html". A copy of the Project's primary license(s) must appear in the same location as the SUA. In most cases this will be the Eclipse Public License alone.
Note: The appropriate SUA and a copy of any referenced license must be located in the root directory of any Eclipse.org distributed build (typically distributed as a ZIP file). Any web page that makes builds available must have a link to the appropriate SUA with appropriate wording.
The SUA Checklist
The Basics:
Any directory containing content that is licensed under different terms than the license(s) referred to by the SUA, should be detailed in a file named "about.html." We call these files "Abouts." Abouts usually contain licensing terms as well as other information such as whether content contains cryptographic functionality that may be subject to export controls.
The Details:
Most plug-ins will contain a default About that simply confirms that all the content in that plug-in is made available under the EPL. There are other plug-ins, however, that will contain content licensed under licenses other than or in addition to the EPL and/or third party content provided under other licenses. If you are the maintainer of a plug-in for an Eclipse.org project, please see the About templates for plugins.
Since most plug-ins do NOT contain specially-licensed content, most plug-ins will contain only the default About. The plug-ins with the special Abouts are the "interesting" ones that most users will want to read.
Note: All plug-ins and fragments should contain an About. All Eclipse.org plug-ins and fragments must contain either one of the default Abouts or a special About written and/or approved by the Eclipse Foundation. In JAR'ed plug-ins, any local files linked from the About such as copies of licenses, must be located in a directory called "about_files."
The Location:
Although Abouts may be found potentially in any directory, they should always be found in plug-ins and fragments. Previously, plug-ins and fragments were usually packaged as sub-directories of a directory named "plugins." Currently, plug-ins and fragments may also be packaged as JARs (Java™ ARchives). For JAR'ed plug-ins, any local files linked from an About such as copies of licenses, must be located in a directory called "about_files." The contents of the "about_files" directory are handled specially so that links resolve correctly when the About in a JAR'ed plug-in is viewed in an external browser spawned from the About dialog.
As an example:
eclipse (installation root directory) notice.html Software User Agreement epl-v10.html the project's primary licenses(s) (typically the EPL alone) referenced by the SUA plugins (plug-ins and fragments directory) org.apache.ant_1.6.2 (plug-in packaged as a directory) about.html About asl-v20.txt Apache Software License referenced by About LICENSE.dom.html W3C License referenced by About org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.1.0.jar (plug-in packaged as a JAR) about.html About about_files (directory for any local files linked from About) asl-v20.txt Apache Software License referenced by About
Users looking for legal documentation may find the Abouts by browsing the directory structure of an Eclipse installation but the files are also viewable from the "About plug-ins" dialog in the Eclipse workbench. To view the Abouts, go to the menu item Help -> About Eclipse Platform and then click on the button "Plug-in Details" and then select a plug-in and click on the button "More Info."
The Abouts Checklist
The Basics:
A feature is a set of one or more related plug-ins and/or fragments that can be installed and upgraded together. There are three important legal documentation files for features, the Feature License (license.html), the Feature Update License (feature.properties > license) and the Feature Blurb (about.properties > blurb).
The Details:
The Feature License
Each feature has a file named "license.html." We call this a "Feature License." In Eclipse.org builds, this file is an exact copy of the file "notice.html" that is found in the root directory of the distribution. In other words, it is the SUA.
The Feature Update License
Each feature has a file named "feature.properties." In that file is a property named "license". This is known as the "Feature Update License." For Eclipse.org builds, the Feature Update License is an exact copy of the SUA in PLAIN TEXT format. Feature Update Licenses must be delivered in that format whereas all the other files we've covered so far have been HTML files.
The Feature Blurb
Each feature has at least one plug-in associated with it which is the "feature plug-in" for that feature. Not surprisingly, this plug-in usually has the same name as the feature. The property named "blurb" contains text that appears in the "About features" dialog in the Eclipse workbench. This is known as a "Feature Blurb." Blurbs often contain copyright notices and any other statements of attribution that may be required by licenses.
What's the difference?
The difference between the Feature License and Feature Update License is when they are shown to the user. The Feature License is only available once a feature has been installed. The Feature Update License is seen when a user is using the Eclipse Update Manager to install or upgrade a feature and must agree to an agreement before proceeding with the installation. One thing that is important to note is that with the distributed licensing model used by plug-ins, unless a Feature Update License contains an aggregation of all the notices from the plug-ins for a feature, a user will not be able to see these notices before installing the feature. It is for this reason that the maintainer of a feature may choose to have different text for the Feature License and Feature Update License.
Note: All features must contain a Feature License and a Feature Update License in the directory for that feature. The feature's plug-in must contain a Feature Blurb.
The Location:
The Feature License
The Feature License is found in the feature directory which is usually a sub-directory of the directory named "features." Any referenced files (for example, the EPL or the SUA) are located in the same location.
The Feature Update License
The Feature Update License is found in the feature directory which is usually a sub-directory of the directory named "features." Any referenced files (for example, the EPL or the SUA) are located in the same location.
The Feature Blurb
The Feature Blurb resides in the "plugins" directory as either a sub-directory or a JAR. In the feature plug-in there is a file named "about.properties.", the Feature Blurb is the property named "blurb". To view the blurb for each installed feature, go to the menu item Help > About Eclipse Platform and then click "Feature Details" and then select a feature. The blurb will appear in the bottom half of the dialog.
The Feature Checklist
An example directory structure corresponding to the above description:
eclipse (installation root directory) features (features directory) org.eclipse.sdk_3.0.1 (feature directory) license.html (Feature License) epl-v10.html the project's primary licenses(s) (typically the EPL alone) referenced by the SUA/Feature License) feature.properties (Feature Update License in "license" property) plugins (plug-ins and fragments directory) org.eclipse.sdk_3.0.1 (plug-in packaged as a directory) about.properties (Feature Blurb in "blurb" property)
The Basics:
Where practical, all source code (which includes Java source as well other types of files such as XML, HTML, etc.) should contain appropriate copyright and license notices as well information on each contribution.
The Details:
The standard format for these notices can be found at www.eclipse.org > Legal Stuff > Default Copyright and License Notice.
If the source is to be licensed under a license other than or in addition to the EPL, you must ensure that the Eclipse Foundation has approved the notice.
The Location:
In the source code.
The Basics:
The Legal page has a copyright notice and a link to the About in the plug-in that contains the book.
An example is shown below:
The Location:
Documentation books usually contain a "Legal" page as the last page in the book.
There are a number of considerations when redistributing an Eclipse.org build in or with your own products. Such redistribution also covers redistribution of a subset of an Eclipse.org build such as one or more plug-ins or features from the build. Specifically:
If you wish to cover the entire redistribution with a single license then you will likely want to locate the necessary licenses for the "special" Abouts and fulfill the obligations of those licenses such as flowing down disclaimers, etc.
If you are delivering your own Eclipse-based content then it will likely be packaged as plug-ins and features. In these cases it is desirable to follow the framework described above so that users can view Abouts, Feature Licenses, and Feature Update Licenses. You will likely want a single license to cover the entire package of your own content plus the redistributed Eclipse.org code. You may therefore wish to point out which plug-ins and/or features are being redistributed from the Eclipse Foundation and which are originating from you. You may wish to have the Abouts, Feature Licenses, and Feature Update Licenses in your own plug-ins and features, simply point the user back to the single license in the root directory of the installation rather than duplicating the text everywhere. Of course if you deliver additional or updated features packaged on an update site for download and installation with the Eclipse Update Manager (in which case you should read the Eclipse Foundation Update Manager Agreement found on the Legal Stuff page at eclipse.org) you will probably want to make the user aware of any additional terms and conditions by adding them to the relevant documents.
There are many legal documentation issues to consider when redistributing Eclipse.org content and delivering Eclipse-based content. It is important that you fully understand what you are redistributing and delivering, and how it will be delivered and thus how your users will encounter (and where necessary agree to) legal documentation, so that you can ensure your conformity with, and their acceptance of, the requirements set forth in the applicable license agreements.

It's grey skies for women inspired by the docs on Grey's Anatomy: Keith Chen and Judith Chevalier, both PhDs at the Yale School of Management, write in The Atlantic about their new study under the gulp-inducing headline "Is Medical School a Worthwhile Investment for Women?" and make the case that, financially speaking, women are better off becoming physician assistants than doctors. If there was ever a finding that more clearly demonstrated the myriad ways in which our system isn't working, I'd love to see it. (And by "love," I mean hate.)
Now, the authors (thankfully) come right out and say that their intention is not to dissuade young women from becoming doctors, just that this is information they should consider when plotting their future career paths. Which is certainly true. After all, med school is expensive, as are most advanced degrees. (In fact, they cite studies that show that more women MBAs and JDs drop out than do doctors.) And, you know, ROI is important. BUT.
First, the obvious: the inequities. According to the study, women doctors start off making less money than their male counterparts, and, as anyone who's ever filled out the salary history portion of a job application knows, that kind of disadvantage right out of the gate is only going to be compounded. But the study's authors quickly move on from this issue and focus instead on another: a difference in hours. From the piece:
This captures the insight that in order for an investment in the high up-front cost medical degree to overcome the lower up-front cost of a PA degree, not only do a doctor's wages have to significantly exceed those of the PA, but the doctor needs to be willing to work enough hours to make those wages pay off.
"Willing." Interesting choice of words, no?
More than likely, what that means is this: male doctors are far more likely to have the benefit of a spouse who can and will take on the bulk of the Life Administration tasks than are women. (Score another one in the "The Biggest Career Decision You'll Ever Make Is Who You Marry" column.) Of course, that's pretty reductionist: undoubtedly there are many women–even the high achieving sort who become MDs–who wind up ramping down their careers, at least for a little while, because they want to. They want time with their children while they're young. And that makes perfect sense. But again, what it amounts to, for women, is a choice. To make a high-powered career pay off, do we have to sacrifice motherhood? To have a family, must our career take a hit? It's a choice that most men don't have to entertain.
From our book:
But absent structural and societal changes, the conflict between work and family often involves retooling the dream. In 2010, Harvard Magazine ran a feature on a study showing that women who'd gotten their MBAs from Harvard were far less likely to both have kids and a full-time job at the time of their fifteenth reunion than were MDs. And in both cases, working mothers chose less-demanding areas: The story pointed out that women make up 41% of new doctors nationwide, but only 30 percent of ER doctors or general surgeons.
The story was somewhat unremarkable (sorry, Harvard), except for the dialogue it provoked. One comment from a twenty-nine-year old med student named Erin was right on point. About to choose her specialty, she confessed that she thinks she was made to be a surgeon but knows that she'll never go into that field. She writes that she can't figure out how to be a good mother someday and factor in the hours–and the lack of flexibility–required to be a good surgeon. 'I hate that this conflict exists,' Erin writes. 'I hate that I keep running into a roadblock. And I also hate that my male counterparts don't have this same internal dialogue.'
Career or family? One hates even to ask the question — especially in the face of a study like this, rife with cold, hard numbers — lest it might lead some smart, ambitious, valuable, talented, potential-filled women to, as Sheryl Sandberg might say, "lean out." To take themselves out of the game before they need to, anticipating the work-life conflicts a certain career path might present, and ramping down their ambitions accordingly.
And yet. To pretend they don't exist is to bury our collective head in the sand. But women represent over half of the labor force in this country, and to leave so much untapped potential on the table is a momentous waste, for our society as a whole, and for each one of us individually. To do nothing is not an option–we've outgrown the status quo. So it seems to me that the question is not career or family, but: isn't there some way to structure the world of work so that it works for everyone?

Jackson Profiled in Poets & Writers
Profiled in the current issue of Poets & Writers Magazine, MFA faculty member Major Jackson discusses his life as a writer, his just-published collection of poetry, and shares a few thoughts on the Bennington Writing Seminars—which the magazine recently ranked among the best low-residency MFA programs in the world.
"If I could do it over again, I'd do a low-res program," Jackson says." I teach in one, the Bennington Writing Seminars. So you take twenty days out of the year to surround yourself with other writers and you're in one-to-one correspondence ... Let's see, I had three poems discussed in a traditional MFA program per semester so that was six a year, so that would have been twelve poems that got discussed around the table. My [Writing Seminars] students send me five poems a month over five months, so twenty-five a term—that's a hundred poems on which they got direct feedback."
Jackson, whose third collection of poetry, Holding Company, was released in August, is the recipient of a Pushcart Prize, a Whiting Writers' Award, and has been honored by the Pew Fellowship in the Arts and the Witter Bynner Foundation in conjunction with the Library of Congress. For his first collection, Leaving Saturn, he was awarded the Cave Canem Poetry Prize for a first book of poems and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in poetry.

After leading the Seattle Seahawks to a Super Bowl victory, Pete Carroll is living large in the NFL. His days at USC were among the most dominant in the nation under his watch, and now the university will induct Carroll in the athletics hall of fame.
USC announced the new hall of fame class via Twitter Monday, with Carroll serving as the headliner. Former Trojan football players Jack Del Rio (currently the Denver Broncos defensive coordinator), Jimmy Jones, Tim Rossovich and former coach Dave Levy will also be inducted. Jones was the first African-American quarterback to appear on a cover of Sports Illustrated.
USC finished in the top five of the final AP Top 25 in seven out of nine seasons under Carroll, and he coached three Heisman Trophy players (one of which was later vacated, of course). The Trojans were kings of college football, winning a BCS national championship and grabbing a pair Associated Press national championships along the way.
There is no question Carroll revitalized the once dominant power out on the west coast, and that deserves to be honored. Before his arrival, USC had finished a season ranked in the top 25 just three times between 1990 and 2001. During his time at USC, Carroll coached the Trojans to a record of 97-19 (adjusted by the NCAA to 83-19, which is still pretty darn impressive). That number includes a total of seven bowl victories, six of those coming in BCS bowl games. Carroll was undefeated in the Rose Bowl, aside from the year it served as the BCS Championship Game and Vince Young led Texas to a thrilling victory in a game for the ages. If USC was in a big game, they were often the favorite and more than often came out on top when the program was at its height under Carroll.
Of course, the legacy of the Carroll era took a hit in the later years once the NCAA stripped the program of victories and scholarships and slapped the program with a postseason ban as a result of former running back Reggie Bush receiving extra benefits. Carroll left USC after the 2009 season to accept a position as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. Having done all he likely could have accomplished at the collegiate level, Carroll may have had a thirst for another crack at the NFL. That has obviously gone well, but the timing of his departure from USC raised some eyebrows at the time.
The Trojans being saddled with Lane Kiffin as a head coach did not help the cause, nor did the sanctions levied against the program. Carroll has defended the USC program in the wake of NCAA investigations and sanctions time and time again though, and he continues to say his leaving the program had nothing to do with the state of the program.

While working in the animation world for 10 to 15 years, I developed a passion for photography and a love for the natural world and landscape photography. This was initially shaped during a gap year by the stunning and dramatic scenery in Australia, United States, Canada and particularly in New Zealand.
Commissioned work for hotels and travel brochures in the likes of Cyprus, Turkey and Egypt has enabled me to produce more personal work in the United States in recent years.
Please feel free to browse my website at www.alexcasselsphotography.com where a wider range of images can be seen in the various galleries.

Anyway, since Google released a Beta of Android for us to play with two days ago, I was just thinking if this would be of any interest.
See for yourself here. The user interface has been revamped pretty extensively. It looks great!
So, anyone in for another Android experiment then?
SDK download can be found here. I dusted off my developer tools already to see if I can make this work on my Zaurus again
[ 9 comments ] ( 248 views ) | permalink | ( 3 / 1290 )
I tried a lot of different Window Managers and setups, but in my opinion none of them fitted the Zaurus very well. That's why I only uploaded a minimal version so far.
After reading Mark Shuttleworth's blog about the Netbook Remix AppLaucher I thought I'd give it a try, just to see if I could get it working on my Zaurus. Another proof of concept so to say.
Unfortunately, this isn't currently possible using frisky or grumpy. The repositories simply don't contain all the right packages or package versions. So I had to make a small sidestep by creating a Debian-Lenny distribution. The Debian Lenny repositories have a huge amount of packages, and they're much more up-to-date than I thought!
After having Lenny ready and working, I compiled the Netbook Remix packages. Using the XFCE Window Manager I set up the top panel and started the launcher. Although the launcher doesn't work (yet), I think this will become my favorite Zaurus setup. The idea behind maximus and the go-home button are great, and the launcher should fit the Zaurus very well.
The launcher exits with an error saying that the "XServer appears to lack required GLX support". Too bad, maybe I'll try to use the xserver-xorg to see if that helps.
Anyway, a lot has to be done. My quest for the perfect Zaurus setup hasn't finished yet. My next proof of concept could well be the mobile Firefox, Mozilla Fennec. We'll see.
Good news by the way. I understand that work on the Ubuntu 8.04 for ARM has started. The Mojo guys hope to have a working (minimal) version within a few weeks time. Great work!

The struggle for a decent installer continues. More on this later.
[ 3 comments ] ( 213 views ) | permalink | ( 3 / 3106 )
Most of my spare time went into this project the last couple of weeks. I've managed to get a fairly complete system running now, although it's very difficult to get all the tiny bits and pieces fit into the right place and position.
A lot of time is spent finding out stuff that has already been done by others. I'm not complaining, it's just that this work isn't as efficient as it could have been. But hey, since I'm far from a Linux guru I'm still learning a lot, and for me that's worth a good thing.
I've updated the minimal image. It can be downloaded here. The version number has gone up from 0.1 to 0.3.
Same instructions apply as before, so read all the details here. I hope to fix a few other things soon, like sound, automatic Xserver rotation, brightness adjustment, right mouse click simulation, easy wireless network configuration, the hardware clock and other things I've forgotten right now.
One good thing is my experience with Xfce. I like it, it looks good and the performance is better than I expected.
If you're going to use this in Qemu, make sure you rename /etc/keymap-2.6.map temporarily, since you don't want to use the Zaurus keyboard mapping in Qemu.
[ 10 comments ] ( 398 views ) | permalink | ( 3 / 1035 )
So I started investigating alternatives. I'm flashing a Xfce image on my Zaurus right now. Let's see how this turns out. Hopefully it's blazing fast of course. First impression is that it still looks great (I'm using the Xubuntu theme). In Qemu the performance is... okay I guess. I hope the Zaurus beats Qemu this time.
There are lots of other choices regarding WM's, and the suggestions some of you made tell me that it may also be a great matter of taste.
That's why I will upload two different images. One being a minimal image, on which people can install whatever they like and the other being a complete desktop image, with a standard set of packages pre-installed, like Firefox, Gnumeric, Abiword, Sylpheed, gqview etc
I'm very content with the Qemu solution by the way, were I pre-configure the complete image before I try it on the Zaurus. It saves me lots and lots of time. I can't imagine doing all the fiddling, configuration and installation directly on the Zaurus in the way I do it now.
[ 2 comments ] ( 206 views ) | permalink | ( 3.8 / 5 )
I'm currently experimenting with other window managers. First one I'm trying is Xfce. If this one's too heavy too, I'll try Fluxbox, Openbox and finally IceWM.
In the meantime, the ubuntu-minimal root filesystem is in it's third version here. Most errors are gone luckily.
[ 4 comments ] ( 170 views ) | permalink | ( 3 / 1239 )
this article on LinuxDevices.com and this one on engadget.
I would like to add that although the goal for me is to get this working on my Zaurus, there's not much Zaurus-specific in the distro at the moment. I guess it should perfectly work on other devices, like the Nokia N810 for instance.
In the meantime I'm heading towards version 1.0 faster than expected. I have a full Ubuntu desktop installed now, including Gnome, gdm, Firefox, the whole lot. Most of the errors in the 0.1 release are solved already.
This distro is currently 215Mb in size (stripped and compressed). I don't know if it's worth uploading, because it's so darn slow. Maybe I just try the much lighter enlightenment as the default WM, I haven't decided yet, as I'm still experimenting.
I'm planning to upload two different flavors, one being the ubuntu-minimal and the other being the ubuntu-desktop.
Last but not least, any help on this would be much appreciated. This won't work if I have to do this all on my own. So, drop me a line using the Contact Me option from the menu on the left, or email me (omegamoon at gmail.com)

The Fedora 8 (Werewolf) and Ubuntu (Frisky Firedrake) images are created using the Qemu ARM emulator.
I started by installing Debian using a kernel and a Debian (ARM) Installer. Having Debian working in Qemu I started to create the Fedora and Ubuntu images. Using Qemu instead of the Zaurus makes it much easier to configure the OS.
I use the xserver-kdrive from Poky, which can be used for the Debian image as wel as for the Ubuntu and Fedora images. I just had to convert the .deb packages into .rpm's for the Fedora image.
I'm currently having really annoying problems getting a working network connection for the Fedora and Ubuntu images, which makes downloading and installation of packages a real pain. I hope this won't take too much time.
I want to thank all of you offering me webspace to host the images. I guess I just have to pick the most easiest, and hopefully most stable, option, and upload the images as soon as possible.
And now back to Qemu and networking. Why isn't this working...
[ add comment ] ( 26 views ) | permalink | ( 3 / 333 )
Not much more to say really, it's much like the Fedora 8 system. One big difference maybe is that Firedrake spits much more errors during first boot, compared to the Werewolf.
There's a lot left to tweak of course, but a full-blown Ubuntu is on it's way. This is really cool, having the same OS running on my desktop and on the much smaller Zaurus. This proofs that the Zaurus is the ultimate mini-laptop.
Anyway, the root filesystem is currently 88Mb, and as I said, it's just a minimal system. I don't have much hosting space left, so I guess you just have to believe me that it's working.
I won't be able to upload the image, unless someone has some hosting space left to donate of course, then I could upload the image. No problem. Use the "Contact Me" from the menu to drop me a line.
And now it's time to install some more packages :-)

We had an amazing tour with your company. for each day we knew exactly what we had to do and where and when we had to go or be ready. Our tour guide Sham and our driver Abel we had for the first few days and we can not speak more highly of them.Sham was an expert experienced guide and Abel drove very carefully. They are both very good assets to this company and made us feel safe and comfortable all the time we were with them. When we went into the Jungle with SI tours they too were excellent. The accommodation chosen was also of very high quality. Thank you On the Go tours for making our Borneo holiday great."

Henderson, NV – July 17, 2017 – People can now rent out their boats, jet skis, motorhomes, motorcycles, dirt bikes, and other recreational toys, to offset the costs of ownership, by using the new URentMe mobile app and website. The Apple and Android apps, and the URentMe website, have been introduced as a new peer-to-peer sharing platform enabling owners to earn extra cash, while allowing renters to enjoy a wide range of luxury toys, which they would not normally own. Think of it as an "AirBNB" for recreational vehicles.
URentMe is currently building in Southern California, Nevada and Arizona markets, with plans to be available Nationwide. Owners and renters can sign up online for the URentMe service and the process to list an item for rent, or choose a rental item, is made very easy. For users looking to rent, listings include key details and high-resolution photographs with search filters for vehicle type, location, and date of availability.
There are currently nine types of recreational vehicles available for rent via URentMe, including: boats, jet skis, motorhomes, motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles and even snowmobiles. URentMe provides an outsourced insurance company and a payment portal for simple and secure transactions.
URentMe's Founder, Anthony Horovitz, says: "As an owner and regular user of recreational vehicles, I recognized there is a need to offset ownership costs for some, while making items more accessible for others to enjoy. Vehicles spend so much time being stored by their owners, so why not put them to good use? Put them to work earning you money, while giving others the chance to enjoy them!"
URentMe is currently accessible online at www.urentme.com and the app can be downloaded at the App Store and at Google Play.

text: stormwind 0 Posted May 13, 2013 I`ve tried to upgrade DT25 to firmware 2.0 through MIDI. Line 6 Monkey couldn`t find my DT25 when I tried to do this with an USB-MIDI interface, so i tried with internal (onboard) MIDI port in my PC. Monkey found it instantly so i started to upgrade from file. (previously i used this port to work on Zoom g7.1 ut and never had problems with it). Update process started. After a while a well-known (800000a propably with connection) error occurred and now my amp is just a random-light-lit piece of junk. Doesn`t react on any of the switches. Tried to reflash the thing but now Monkey doesn`t detect the amp. I looked through the forum, found out that there is another way using MIDI Ox to transfer firmware file. Tried that, didn`t work (program sends somewehere file but nothing happens). Tried to run amp in "Service mode", tried "hard reset". Didn`t work. Still can`t detect amp in monkey :(. Any solutions?

Craigslist Helper for Inoreader
by innologica
Recently Craigslist blocked all standard ways for RSS readers to access their feeds. We have developed this Opera extension that can fetch your personal RSS feeds and send them to your Inoreader.
Get all offers related to your saved searches and other Craigslist needs in one place - just install the extension and Inoreader will check your feeds to deliver results in your account whenever your browser is active.
We've built the Craigslist Helper as a collaborative extension - feeds polled by one user will also be updated for all other subscribers. This means the most popular subscriptions can sync to your account even when your browser isn't active.
You can then do anything you're used to doing with any RSS feed in Inoreader:
★ Organize feeds in folders
★ Tag or star specific offers
★ Create rules based on keywords
★ Filter feeds
- This extension can access your data on all websites.

Milo Burik is The Wheelman. He drives, shoots, beats people up and talks smack, usually at the same time. If you think that might be a chore for any normal man, you'd be right. However, Milo is played by Vin Diesel, and from our Vin we would expect no less. That's the way Vin, and every character that he has ever played in any movie ever, rolls. And roll Vin does in the latest take on free roaming, mission-based games from publisher Midway.
Developed by Tigon Software, Wheelman has had a rather drawn-out history. Originally announced in conjunction with a movie of the same name, the game has finally turned up almost five years later with Vin Diesel still on board but, to be honest, little else going for it. It's a game that seems to have got stuck in traffic, only to emerge five years behind everyone else.
The game is set in Barcelona. CIA agent Milo Burik is assigned to thwart a diabolical plot that threatens the free world. Unfortunately details are a bit hard to come by as the game seems to rely on the film to fill in a lot of the gaps. Even more unfortunately, with no sign of the film, the story is as fractured as the pile of wrecked cars that Milo leaves in his wake.
Wheelman, as you would expect, is a drive around town, crashing things, collecting things, killing things kind of game. Compared with the top-flight games of its ilk, it falls short in a number of ways. In fact, when making comparisons, the game that comes to mind is not GTA or Saints Row, but The Simpson's Road Rage. Like Road Rage the cars that Milo drives are as durable as tanks. The shame about it is that they are as boxy as tanks and drive like tanks too. Whether you are in a nippy little convertible, with a strangely oversized Milo looking over the windscreen, or an enormous eighteen wheeler, you'll be bringing down trees, bouncing off buildings and crashing through bus stops like you're Abe Simpson in his Shriner. "I'm missing Matlock!"
You get the feeling that the game is aspiring to that same level of fun achieved by Road Rage, and there are a few genuinely fun aspects to the game. The main one is the use of the right stick for melee combat. While you are driving you can flick the right stick either right of left and this will slam your ride into anything that is along side. Do this a few times and the opposing car will start to smoke, then shake and then disappear in a screaming fireball.
Although using the melee stick gives you an almost Vin Diesel level of invulnerability, you will on occasion need to get a new ride. Here Wheelman also has a rather fun trick. If you drive up behind a civilian you can airjack his butt. To do this you press circle. As you close in a red icon appears above the target car. When this turns green, you release the button and Milo will jump forward onto the car, kick out the hapless driver and continue on.
If smashing enemies and switching cars mid-mission hasn't left you clear of Barcelona's police or criminals then Milo has one more trick left. If you drift, pull handbreakies or crash through bus stops you fill your turbo gauge. Once this is filled Milo can pull out his piece and take care of the opposition from behind the wheel. As the colour washes out of the scene, and everything slows down you can pick off multiple targets at will. That's right, it's bullet time from behind the wheel. And yes, it is as awesome as it sounds.
Somewhat less awesome is the look of Barcelona. It is pretty bland. For a game in the works for five years, it feels ten years old. While we have come to expect wondrously rendered digital worlds that invite you to explore, the Barcelona represented in Wheelman invites you to use the in-game map to jump straight to the next mission. And thankfully that's what the game allows you to do. Every mission, and every side mission, is accessed through the map, meaning that between missions you never have to drive anywhere. It is almost as if the makers of the game wanted to it to be as easy as possible to get through the game without having to drive around in the cars too much, or hang out to long in the city. There might be a lesson in that.
Although some aspects of the game do work, essentially Wheelman highlights everything that is bad about movie/game tie-ins. That is of course given that there isn't actually a movie to go along with the game. Everything about it could be better. Even Vin Diesel sounds wrong. If his voice went any lower they'd have to invent a whole new level of masculine just for him.
It's a shame because Vin Diesel driving fast and smashing things should always work. Unfortunately, while on paper it might have sounded like a Fast and Furious calibre idea, in reality Wheelman is barely a Pacifier.

How to Make a Stop Motion Video With Your Kids: LEGO Style
Do your kids like to watch movies?
Looking for a project that taps their vivid imaginations and tells a story?
Make a stop motion video with your kids.
It's an educational activity that'll cultivate your child's creativity, reinforce valuable life skills and create long-lasting memories.
In this article I'll show you how to make a low- to no-cost stop motion movie with your family.
Why Make a Stop Motion Video?
Stop motion, defined by Merriam-Webster, is "a filming technique in which objects (such as clay models or LEGO bricks) are photographed in a series of slightly different positions so that the objects seem to move."
It's fun to make a movie with your kids! You'll engage your creative muscles in a whole new way as you reinforce writing and storytelling skills; design sets, characters and props; and explore the craft of movie-making.
Making a movie helps strengthen life skills such as storytelling and leadership, teamwork, organization, critical thinking and communication. And kids' confidence will get a boost when they inspire, move or entertain people with the final results.
The only obstacle to making a stop motion movie is the limit of your imagination (and maybe the size of your memory card!).

Nicki Minaj & Shania Twain Hung Out At Coachella (PHOTO)
By Taylor Fields
April 16, 2018
So, Nicki Minaj and Shania Twain walk into a Coachella party...
No, that's not the beginning of a joke -- it's true! Nicki Minaj posted an Instagram picture of an epic group shot at Coachella, also featuring Shania Twain, Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name), The Weeknd, French Montana, Belly, and NAV, among others.
In her caption, Nicki sweetly fangirled over meeting Shania, writing that the country star "is so dope in real life." Meanwhile, Shania also posted the group shot to her own Instagram, and captioned it, "Good times at Coachella last night."
Perhaps this meeting was a long time coming, because last year during a listening party for her latest album Now, Shania had declared her fandom for Minaj. She said, "You know who I really love is Nicki Minaj. I love her. She's just so raw and vicious and amazing."
Sooo when is the Shania/Nicki collab happening? We wanna know.
Nicki had an exciting weekend, as she dropped two brand new singles "Barbie Tingz" and "Chun-Li," the first taste of the rapper's long-awaited, highly anticipated fourth full-length studio album (the followup to 2014's The Pinkprint).
Aside from her Shania hangout, it looks like Nicki had an amazing time at Coachella over the weekend. In other photos posted to her Instagram, Minaj is dressed in a fierce form-fitting leopard outfit, accessorized with a golden chain across her face.
Nicki also shared a video hanging out with Kylie Jenner (who rocked some neon pink hair for the 2018 Coachella weekend), her sister Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Scott, Chance the Rapper, and Quavo who were all dancing and having a great time.
If there was ever a time to have Coachella FOMO, here it is:
This year's first Coachella weekend was epic as the festival featured a history-making performance from headliner Beyoncé (which featured a Destiny's Child reunion), as well as performances from fellow headliners The Weeknd and Eminem, and a lineup of superstars.

Here are some of the surprises:
- Watson Family Diaries -- The online collection consists of his 12 travel diaries written between 1804 and 1858 of Joh Fanning Watson.
- Missouri Digital Heritage -- More than 6.8 million records can be accessed through Missouri Digital Heritage, including the collections of the Missouri State Archives, the Missouri State Library and other institutions from across the state including 2.2 million death certificates.
- Indiana State Library, Genealogy Collection -- Cemetery locator and Indiana Marriages database
- Library of Congress E-Resources Online Catalog -- a lot of stuff
- Oklahoma Digital Prairie -- The criteria for selection were particularly focused on a) materials difficult to access due to their rarity, b) materials with broad interdisciplinary application, and c) materials that are at a risk from a preservation point of view.
- Yale University, The Manuscripts and Archives Digital Images Database (MADID)
- University of Florida, George A. Smathers Libraries, Digital Collections -- The University of Florida Digital Collections (UFDC) hosts more than 300 outstanding digital collections, containing over 8 million pages, covering over 78 thousand subjects in rare books, manuscripts, antique maps, children's literature, newspapers, theses and dissertations, data sets, photographs, oral histories, and more for permanent access and preservation
I could go on, but here is a list of more than 250 online digital archives from every state in the United States entitled, "250+ Killer Digital Libraries and Archives."
Perhaps you aren't surprised at any of this. My daughter Amy of TheAncestorFiles related that she has a list of 150 sources that she searches for every person she researches. I believe her. But I am also a little sad that some researchers feel put upon to search the U.S. Census Records beyond a simple look up in Ancestry.com, MyHeritage.com or FamilySearch.org.

Technically, the Snow Peak SnowMiner LED Headlamp is for hiking in the dark. But when you see the words snow and headlamp together, can you think of anything besides snowboarding in the dark?
But you shouldn't snowboard in the dark because even if you managed to find a way to do that, it's probably insanely dangerous. In any case, the SnowMiner is now slouch. The LED lamp emits 60 lumens worth of light. When strapped to your head, it shoots out a 35 meter focused beam. Awesome. But there's more.
The lamp dome is made of a shape-shifting silicone material. When you squeeze the sides, the concave lens of the headlamp pops out into a dome-shaped form factor, effectively turning the SnowMiner into a lantern. For $50, what more could you ask for from your outdoor gear? [TheGearCaster, Adventure Journal]

Flap's California Afternoon Collection: April 12, 2012
Lombard Street, San Francisco, California
The California Legislature is in session. Today's schedule is here.
The California Assembly's Daily File is here and the California State Senate's here.
On to today's California Headlines:
FEC delays decision in Durkee embezzle case
The Federal Election Commission on Thursday raised sharp questions but came to no firm conclusion over Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein's bid for greater fundraising leeway in the wake of embezzlement by her former campaign treasurer.
The punt will give the FEC more time to consider whether California politicians ripped off by former treasurer Kinde Durkee can solicit additional funds from individuals who have already reached their contribution limit.
"We're all sympathetic to your client," FEC commissioner Ellen Weintraub told Feinstein's attorneys Thursday morning, "but it's still a hard question."
Though the commission's legal staff had recommended rejecting Feinstein's request, the commissioners during a two-hour hearing indicated they thought it was a close call. Several voiced concern over the potential "implications" for other campaigns of granting Feinstein's fundraising request.
"We have to do some special thinking," Commissioner Steven Walther said. "We're in a tight spot, and we need to think this one out."
Feinstein wants contribution limits be lifted following revelations that Durkee had embezzled millions of dollars from dozens of campaign treasuries. Feinstein's campaign alone reported losing at least $4.5 million under Durkee's scheming. The FEC's reasoning will apply to other former Durkee clients as well, and will also be closely attended to by the state's Fair Political Practices Commission.
Court: Managers don't have to ensure lunch breaks
In a case that affects thousands of businesses and millions of workers, the California Supreme Court ruled Thursday that employers are under no obligation to ensure that workers take legally mandated lunch and rest breaks
The unanimous opinion came after workers' attorneys argued that abuses are routine and widespread when companies aren't required to issue direct orders to take the breaks. They claimed employers take advantage of workers who don't want to leave colleagues during busy times.
The case was initially filed nine years ago against Brinker International, the parent company of Chili's and other eateries, by restaurant workers complaining of missed breaks in violation of California labor law.
But the high court sided with businesses when it ruled that requiring companies to order breaks is unmanageable and those decisions should be left to workers.
The opinion written by Associate Justice Kathryn Werdegar explained that state law does not compel an employer to ensure employees cease all work during meal periods, instead saying the employee is at liberty to use the time as they choose.
"The employer is not obligated to police meal breaks and ensure no work thereafter is performed," Werdegar wrote.
The court's decision could greatly reduce the numerous class-action lawsuits surrounding the issue that cost companies millions of dollars in legal costs.
"The courts are making it clear that you have to create a system and a procedure that fully allows employees an opportunity to take breaks and meal periods, and if they do that they do not have to be Big Brother and individually monitor each employee to ensure that they've taken every bit of their breaks," said Steve Hirschfeld, founder and CEO of the Employment Law Alliance, an employer-side legal trade group.
Deadly shooting revives concerns about USC's neighborhood
It started as a typical evening for Ming Qu and Ying Wu, two graduate students from China studying electrical engineering at USC.
After a night at the library, Qu drove Wu to the house where she was renting a room less than a mile from campus. He double parked in front of the home early Wednesday morning to continue talking.
At around 1 a.m., a gunman approach Qu's BMW and opened fire, killing both students in an attack that shocked USC and rekindled long-held concerns about safety around the university.
Qu attempted to run for help after he was shot in the head and was found collapsed on a nearby porch, police said. Wu was found shot in the chest, slumped over in the passenger seat of the car parked on a tree-lined stretch of Raymond Avenue just south of Adams Boulevard.
The students, both 23, were close friends who spent evenings chatting on the front porch of the house where Wu lived, according to police sources, who requested anonymity because the investigation is ongoing. But on Wednesday, it was raining, so police believe the pair decided to stay in the car, which friends said was a 2003 model that Qu bought for about $10,000.
Police suspect a lone assailant of carrying out the killings, but LAPD Capt. Andrew Smith said investigators had little to go on and are examining all motives, including that the gunman was trying to rob the pair. More than a dozen Los Angeles Police Department homicide detectives canvassed the area Wednesday, going door-to-door to search for witnesses and reviewing intersection cameras for clues.
USC, south of downtown Los Angeles, has long dealt with worries about crime in the neighborhoods around the campus. But in recent years, some of those concerns have eased as crime plummeted, the university expanded and some of those neighborhoods, such as West Adams, gentrified.
California senators call for a vote on Jerry Brown's pension plan
California's ranking Senate Republican and one of the GOP's representatives on a special pension committee have fired off letters to Gov. Jerry Brown and their Democratic colleagues in the Legislature, calling for a key committee vote on the governor's pension reform plan later this week.
Republicans have embraced Brown's plan and put it word for word in two bills. Senate Republican Leader Bob Huff of Diamond Bar and Sen. Mimi Walters of Laguna Niguel on Tuesday signed the letters delivered to Brown and pension conference committee co-chairs Sen. Gloria Negrete McLeod, D-Chino, and Assemblyman Warren Furutani, D-Gardena, pushing for a vote Friday when the committee meets in Southern California.
They asked Brown to "join us to demand immediate legislative action on your twelve point pension plan, which we believe represents the first steps that must be enacted to get our runaway pension system under control."
Molly Munger puts $2 million more into California tax measure
With just weeks left to gather the signatures needed to qualify for the November ballot, civil rights attorney Molly Munger has poured another $2.15 million into her proposal to raise income taxes to fund schools.
Munger, president of The Advancement Project, is the sole financier of the "Our Children, Our Future Measure." The proposal would raise taxes on a sliding scale for almost all California earners, routing the revenues directly to school districts and early childhood development programs.
Supporters of Gov. Jerry Brown's rival tax measure, which would temporarily raise income taxes on high earners and increase the state sales tax by a quarter percent, have tried to persuade Munger to drop her measure to avoid confusion and mixed messaging that could arise with more than one tax hike in front of voters in November.
The Munger camp must collect roughly 504,000 valid voter signatures by to make it on the ballot. They likely need to submit those petitions signatures to elections officials by mid-May to be certified in time for the 2012 election.
Enjoy your afternoon!
And, lastly, Dan Walters explains why the City of Los Angeles may have to declare bankruptcy.

After eight months exploring Greenland, members of the Under the Pole team push their ice diving limits to new depths.
The descent was five-minutes only, but the small hole dug in the ice 111 m above would demand a two hour return trip – in sub-zero waters.
In the icy darkness 111 m below the surface and the rest of the Under the Pole team, Martin Mellet and Ghislain Bardout smiled at one another – they'd reached a difficult new "summit" together.

Like ambitious alpinists trying to reach the next peak, they are always tempted to descend to the next "summit" below them. Unlike alpinism, however, deep sea diving has no ultimate summit to reach. The deeper you dive, Martin says, the more complicated the dive becomes while at the same time not satisfying the craving for an ultimate end point.
"This frustration is a powerful motivation for deep diving, but a dangerous one because you constantly need to control the urge to go further," he says.
Only two things would ensure their safe return; their trust and confidence in each other and the thin lifeline leading them back to the hole in the ice ceiling. "We get in the water through a small hole in the ice, and this opening is our only way out," Martin wrote after the dive. "If we lose track of the life line that connects us to the hole, things can only end in tragedy."
© Lucas Santucci/Under the Pole
The visibility was poor when they began their descent, but their spirits were high. After eight months of hard work and diving together as part of the Under the Pole expedition, Martin and Ghislain had achieved a level of trust to make such a risky dive possible.
On their descent to 90 m, they had dove along a steep, reassuring cliff face. After that, the cliff ended and the vast ocean expanded before them. "Everything was calm and quiet, intensely exhilarating," Ghislain says. "We dive because we want that moment when the unimportant just fades away and everything we feel is suddenly amplified by our heightened senses."
© Lucas Santucci/Under the Pole
At 111 m they stopped and contemplated their surroundings and situation. Going further was unnecessary; they were already deep enough.
"Being there, 111 m below the sea ice and icebergs, is a big deal – at that extreme depth, our lives were pending," Ghislain says. "Like an alpinist who has reached his summit, we had just reached ours and it was time to ascend."
To avoid decompression, the return trip took two hours, with 1h 30 spent at 12 m and above. But this meant they could take their time on the way up and better enjoy the dark shapes of the huge icebergs above them.
"After a little more than two hours, we emerged from the hole one after the other and entered a different world where the team welcomed us with satisfying smiles, cake and hot tea," Ghislain says.
