Tortoise SVN and PayPal, voice controls for the desktop
Community Notebook: Projects
The free software market is a very special little biotope, and life within it can be pretty treacherous at times, as the Tortoise SVN developer learned thanks to PayPal. Voice controls for the desktop are a far more harmonious affair.
One thing that makes the open source world likeable is the number of small projects whose maintainers are motivated by the fun of programming rather than any commercial or strategic concerns, giving the users of free software a choice of a more or less infinite variety of specialist applications that come free of charge and that they can develop and improve themselves if the need arises.

Far away from the noise and stress of the big cities, farmers work peacefully in the age-old rhythms of planting, tending and harvesting rice, a staple of the Japanese diet.
The small fields require a complicated irrigation system, which involves the co-operation of all the farmers in each area. Farming families also help each other out in busy planting and harvesting seasons, and this mutual reliance is cited by many Japanese as the cultural root of group activitiy and consensus building that has been transferred to the nation's industrial and political worlds.
But this cosy idyll is about to be shattered by wicked trade negotiators from the West, who want Japan to stop subsidising its rice farmers and allow foreign rice imports. Now that the EC and the US have apparently settled their dispute on agricultural subsidies, the spotlight in the continuing Gatt trade liberalisation talks is shifting to Japan, and specifically its closed rice market. Politicians, including the Prime Minister, Kiichi Miyazawa, have hinted that the government will eventually have to give in on the rice issue - but they will stall any decision until the last moment.
According to the more conservative defenders of Japan's ban on rice imports, such a decision will jeopardise centuries of cultural traditions, and leave the country dangerously dependent on foreign farmers.
Now take a closer look at the rural idyll. The first thing you will notice is that most of the farmers working in the rice fields are old. According to government figures for last year, 50 per cent of farmers are over 60. Even that figure is deceptive, since more than three- quarters of farmers are part- timers, relying on jobs in manufacturing for their main income. Only 16 per cent of all farms have a male under the age of 60 devoting more than 150 days a year to farming.
Not only are farmers ageing - the next generation is showing little interest in the back-breaking work of the paddies: 70 per cent of farming households have no successor interested in taking up the work. And were it not for the huge government subsidies that make Japanese rice about seven times more expensive than US or Thai rice, there would be no reason for anyone to grow rice in Japan. Rice farms in Japan have an average size of just 2.5 acres, compared to 9.5 in Thailand and 370 in the US, making the economies of large- scale farming impossible.
Just as the farming community is dying off, so too domestic consumption of rice is decreasing, as families have begun eating more bread and other grains in a diet that is becoming more Westernised. In 1962 the average per capita consumption of rice was 260lb. Today it is about 150lb.
The 'food security' argument is also suspect: although no rice is imported, except for the southern island of Okinawa (where tastes differ), 90 per cent of the country's wheat comes from overseas, and a total of 51 per cent of all food is imported.
So what precisely has the government been trying to protect with its continuing ban on rice imports? In many other areas Japan is a huge beneficiary of free international trade. The answer is as simple as it is cynical - the government of the entrenched Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is protecting itself. After decades of pampering farmers with rice subsidies, the LDP relies on farmers' votes to keep getting elected.
The key to this lock on power is demographical. Constituency boundaries in Japan were drawn up shortly after the war, when bombed-out cities were under- populated and the countryside was full of refugees. Over the next few decades of Japan's rapid economic growth, people flooded back into the cities. But no fundamental reform of the constituencies has been undertaken, which often means a rural constituent's vote is equal to around three votes in an urban area.
But time is running out for the LDP. The gerrymandering of constituencies has been repeatedly challenged in the courts. And the fear of becoming an outcast in the Gatt talks will probably force the government to give in on the rice issue - bureaucrats talk of a decision by next March. It will be presented as a grudging concession to overwhelming foreign pressure.
But in reality, just as many other traditional aspects of Japan have been discarded in the headlong rush towards economic development, so too the rural idyll of Japan's rice farmers is already starting to fade.

The world is again at a place where US leadership can make a difference and where the nation's grand strategy is an aerospace strategy. The recipe for success has not changed: first, have a vision for shaping the aerospace domain, and second, invest in preeminence in aerospace transportation. The future of the United States as an aerospace nation hangs in the balance. We are best as an aerospace nation when our brightest minds, our most innovative industries, and our most critical governmental agencies work together. The future economic prosperity and national security depend on the choices we make now.
Excellent article. Unfortunately our national will is now driven by the media and entertainment industries supported by masses of people who take what you are doing for granted. I fear what magnitude of atrocity or attack it may take to reverse course in the minds of voters and the general population.
Much of America still believes in creationism and doubts the facts of global warming. This archaic mindset is not conducive of maintaining preeminence in the aerospace arena. Critical governmental agencies are dominated by this mentality. Priority one is to teach truth and reality and face the future with vision not faith. In the course of daily social interaction I hear so many individuals with an unbelievable lack of common sense and knowledge of science and current affairs. Understanding the real world seems unimportant to them.

Moneyforyourphone offered the best price for my old but still working iPhone 4s; £18 isn't winning the lottery but better than nothing so I duly sent it in, only to be emailed with a revised offer of £2. This claimed there was a 'deep scratch' and ruptured battery - strange when it was working perfectly before I sent it. I rejected the offer only to have it upped to £4. When I rejected this too it was sent back minus the protective cover and prised apart - in no condition to try with an alternative website. Left a bad taste in the mouth - I'll definitely avoid in future!

Hello again Kitty,
I have three plants I traded for last summer now in the garden. All are
variations on a theme... each one is larger than the other in size, general
appearance. Amount of arch to the leaf, rippling along the mid-rid or leaf
margin, coloring, etc. I am considering making a few more trades for some of
the more exotic cultivars ... read much more expensive plants.
By themselves the plants are not all that jump up in your face
beautiful. Just different and one of those plants that fits a difficult
niche in the shade garden. Just so happens that it goes very well with
others. Great companion plant or not bad on its own. Can't ask much more
than that.
I did order a couple of the more expensive cultivars, but they were sold
out when my turn came at shipping.

This Award allows Dr. Stapleton to become an independent investigator performing translational research on nutrition and pharmaconutrients in critically ill patients with sepsis, a syndrome that is common in critical illness and has an enormous public health impact. Dr. Stapleton is trained in epidemiology, but to establish herself as an expert leader in nutrition and pharmaconutrient therapy in critical illness, she is seeking additional training in pharmacokinetics and translational research. Through a cohesive program of formal coursework, direct mentoring by outstanding experts, and practical experience conducting her proposed projects, this Award will help her achieve her career goals of translating novel nutrient interventions into clinical application. The overall objective of this proposal is to investigate the pharmacologic behavior and to perform a phase I dose-finding study of zinc in patients with severe sepsis. The biologic rationale for zinc in sepsis is strong. Zinc deficiency is present in nearly all critically ill patients and is associated with increased mortality and organ failure. Zinc supplementation in healthy volunteers restores normal immune function including normalizing lymphocyte count, decreasing inflammatory cytokine production, restoring phagocytic activity of neutrophils, and reducing incidence of infections. Supplementation also decreases organ failure and death in murine sepsis, and there is evidence from a few small clinical trials of antioxidant cocktails including zinc in critically ill humans that supplementation may improve survival.
Aim 1 is a phase I dose-finding study of intravenous zinc in patients with severe sepsis to identify a dose for use in future trials. The endpoints are normalization of plasma zinc level and safety and tolerability parameters including vomiting and diarrhea. The results of this study will lead to R01 or U01 applications for future clinical trials.
Aim 2 defines the pharmacokinetics of zinc in patients with severe sepsis compared to healthy controls and determines a dosing interval for zinc by investigating the hypothesis that the half-life of zinc in severe sepsis patients is significantly lower than in healthy controls.
Aim 3 investigates the impact of zinc on inflammation, immunity, and oxidant defense in patients with severe sepsis through selected laboratory measurements, work which will provide insight into biologic markers for use in future clinical trials. With the rich resources in translational research provided by the Vermont Lung Center, this is an exceptional opportunity for Dr. Stapleton to gain outstanding experience in pharmacokinetics, dose-finding studies, and translational research in critically ill patients with sepsis.
Sepsis is a common syndrome in critical illness, has a tremendous public health impact, and new therapies are urgently needed. Zinc is a novel potential therapy, and this research is an innovative approach that establishes a new paradigm of investigating nutrient delivery to critically ill patients. It rigorously progresses through defining the pharmacokinetics and conducting a phase I dose-finding study, while investigating zinc's biologic impact using obtained blood samples, to obtain information that will inform the conduct of future clinical trials.

A dynamic model for binary panel data with unobserved heterogeneity admitting a Vn-consistent conditional estimator
A model for binary panel data is introduced which allows for state dependence and unobserved heterogeneity beyond the effect of strictly exogenous covariates. The model is of quadratic exponential type and its structure closely resembles that of the dynamic logit model. An economic interpretation of its assumptions, based on expectation about future outcomes, is provided. The main advantage of the proposed model, with respect to the dynamic logit model, is that each individual-specific parameter for the unobserved heterogeneity may be eliminated by conditioning on the sum of the corresponding response variables. A conditional likelihood results which allows us to identify the structural parameters of the model with at least three observations (included an initial observation assumed to be exogenous), even in the presence of time dummies. A pn-consistent conditional estimator of these parameters also results which is very simple to compute. Its finite sample properties are studied by means of a simulation study. Extensions of the proposed approach are discussed with reference, in particular, to the case of more elaborated structures for the state dependence and to that of categorical response variables with more than two levels.

Skip to comments.Widow receives accidental-death benefits in auto-erotic electrocution case
Posted on 04/21/2012 12:45:48 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY
A widow has won a bitter victory her husbands death by electrocution to the genitals has to be revisited by their insurance company.
Paul Martin, 35, was found lying naked from the waist down in his upstate basement in December 2008 after hooking himself up to an electrical contraption made of purple wire with a bare loop on one end.
The other purple wire handle end was held in the victims hand, and the center live wire appeared to be a possible switch, which was held in his other hand, said a police report.
Widow Amanda Martin sued The Hartford life-insurance company after it denied her claim for accidental-death benefits because it said her hubby, an electrical engineer, died from a deliberate act on his part.
A federal judge in Rochester sided with The Hartford and pulled the plug on Amandas suit last year.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
Imagine all the crap we'd be hearing if they did this to Islamoterrorists down at GITMO.
Why should they have to pay benefits when someone kills themselves from stupidity and why would she admit to being married to this guy?
Did it cure his ED?
Well you know they paid the premiums.
To me it would depend on a couple of things. One is the language of the policy. Did it pay for suicide or not?
Also, was this a suicide or an accident. I'm thinking accident because it doesn't seem likely that a person would chose to kill themselves this way.
The Ins. Co. said "deliberate act" but there are many acts that we make that we don't think will kill us but do. So I don't know if by saying "deliberate act" they mean he committed suicide, or should have expected to die.
The appellate courts usually favor the criminal element, the negligent, the incompetent or other wrongdoers. This principle seems to favor the widow in this case.
Goodness gracious great balls of fire.
This certainly was no suicide, nobody would choose such a method. What an embarassing way to die. What do you say to St Peter.....what does he say to you?
Beats me and $$$$$$.
Still I can't imagine any amount of money being enough to make someone admit that was her husband.
I suppose it being an embarrassing way to die is eclipsed by the embarrassing fact that now EVERYBODY knows it.
LOL. Permanently-cured. The gene pool is a little bit happier, this week.
he's stiff now.
That's a "conversation" which I don't ever want to hear.
uh, wait, ummm *nevermind*
Stupidity is the root of almost every accident. It's pretty his going while coming was not intentional unless they were trying to preserve the pelt for sale.
They need to change their policies so that deaths from auto-erotica doesn't count.
In future their policy should spell out that auto-erotica deaths aren't covered.
The few times I've been bitten by a faulty outlet or exposed wire tell me that I'd not want to hook it up to my bidness for fun.
They need to change their policies so that deaths from auto-erotica doesnt count.
Why would the insurance company even challenge payment? They can't possibly believe the guy was TRYING to commit suicide by that method. Duh!
Bodie: He said he didn't feel like it. And I said, you'd better! And he said, or what? And I said, or else you're gonna be in trouble. And he said jam it.
Professor Hathaway: That's a wonderful story, Bodie. I noticed you've stopped stuttering.
Bodie: I've been giving myself shock treatments.
Professor Hathaway: Up the voltage.
-Real Genius(1986)
I think there IS a more undignified way to go...
Christmas already? "Chestnuts roasting on an open wire"
Everyone knows death by erectocution is not a covered event.
Shocking! ZZZZZZZZZOT :-)
I'm an embedded systems guy, maybe this could be a lucrative sideline....Lol, nah...
Did he get a Darwin award?
Yeah, permanently....
I'm unclear as to what the wife should be embarrassed about. She was not the one playing around in the basement. Perhaps you think she went knowingly into a relationship in which her life partner preferred painful electric shocks to female companionship. Odds are she didn't. Men w this type of foible are very good at covering it up. He would not have mentioned, when he proposed, that she would be a lonely wife while he pushed the envelope in his solo ventures.
This woman likely had a rough time of it, whether she ever found out [prior to his death] why he shunned the marriage bed or not. If Hollywood ever made a movie about this type of man he would be funny and fun to be around [what perversion has Hollywood ever not loved?]. In real life they're horrible partners, as the wife probably learned the hard way.
I don't understand the thinking on this thread. This woman almost certainly endured a lousy marriage. Her husband's 'hobby' resulted in his death, which as many have pointed out is not the desired result of these autoerotic obsessions. Why should she be penalized all over again, just because she married a screwed up man? Short of a crystal ball, there's just no way to know w certitude what the spouse is going to be like, and that is just a fact.
When I was an ambulance medic, I actually had such an ambulance call. The deceased was in the basement dressed in a bra and panties and had shocked himself to death using an old fashioned electronic tube tester and wires attached to his nipples. The coroner also ruled this was an accidental death. I felt very sorry for the teenage son who discovered the body.
I don't doubt that you are right about the situation she found herself in.
However, I just could not imagine telling people my husband's cause of death, much less pushing a lawsuit over it.
OTOH, if I was in a marriage in such rough shape, maybe I would do the same thing.
The lawsuit is about $. A policy was paid into that didn't exclude accidental death, regardless of how the accident came about. In typically dysfunctional relationships, not a lot of provision is made against such eventualities. I.e.: the man was not planning to die, and probably made no other financial provision for his survivor/s than the ins. policy. The wife probably needs the money for a variety of compelling obligations. I.e.: she isn't pursuing the policy for publicity, but because she's desperate to pay bills, mortgage and/or other items.
Spark imagination and a lot of balls whut could go wrong.
Various rockers who choked on their own vomit
An extremely overweight singer who choked to death on a hero sandwich
Dying while on the toilet, pants around ankles
Several deaths by drowning, whether it's falling off a boat at sea or passing out in the tub at home
Autoerotic strangulation gone wrong
Never got a concensus on which circumstance was most embarassing for those left behind, but this seems to be a contender.
My husband and his country cousins as young boys, would always challenge the city cousins who came out to the farm to a pi$$ing contest..to see who could hit the (electric) fence with a stream. Of course the city cousins always won and were proud of being champs.
Some folks are just dumb.
He was an electrical engineer. Therefore the insurance company could have refused to pay on grounds that it was an intentional suicide.
To require them to pay in such a case defies logic. If a "licensed gun expert", died while allegedly "cleaning" a handgun, with the bullet entering his right temple and leaving through his left, the assumption must be that he knew what he was doing and intended to commit suicide.
In this case, in that he *might* have been trying to sexually stimulate himself does not overcome his learned knowledge that to do so *that way* could likely be lethal.
And insurance companies have long be excused from paying claims based on suicide.
I know it's easy to roast perfectly good tubes if the voltage settings aren't correct. Do you recall the make and model? Hickock made some of the best.
While a tube may test "weak", it can still work OK in circuit. Similarly, a tube that tests "good" may not. The best test of a tube is whether or not it works in the equipment.
Just be thankful you were never the wife of a man w a serious sexual perversion. It's no coincidence that a man who is fascinated w/obseessed by the auto-eroticism of applying electrical jolts to his genitals would become an electrical engineer. On top of which, neither of us knows how well off or desperately in need this man left his wife, or if there are children involved. [I didn't read the article. Did it specifically mention children as survivors?]
It would be great if there was some kind of premarital test to reveal deep-seated sexual perversions. A lot of agony could be avoided thereby. People who harbor these fundamental disorders are nothing if not brilliant at covering them up. It would be fascinating to find out if or even when [prior to his death] the wife found out about her husband's 'hobby'. Sometimes if the revelation comes post-children, the wife will try to stick it out for their sakes. It's a sad, hard, no-win situation.
While ultimately sympathetic to the wife, and possible children, the issue remains, are they so sympathetic that you are willing to give them $80,000 of your own money?
This is what The Hartford Insurance Company's underwriters are being asked to do.
Thus my argument is that Insurers need some way to avoid paying off on "illegitimate" insurance claims, no matter how sympathetic the survivors. Otherwise it is "free money" to all the "puppies and kittens" out there, *at the expense* of those with "legitimate" claims, as well as those whose premiums are increased to pay for kindness to others.
Well, each of us can claim agreement with at least one federal judge. I doubt the case will be appealed, because by now, the expense of the case already probably exceeds the original judgment.
The Hartford does not want the legal precedent, so they might appeal, but the widow will likely not get any amount of money after the lawyers bills.
Yes the couple had sex issues... BECAUSE THE MAN HAD HYPERTENSION AND DIABETES!
Dude's junk didn't work. He was an engineer. He tried to make his junk work himself.
Good initiative, bad judgment. We got an app - er, PILL - for that!
Although perhaps his heart was too deemed too delicate for the little blue pills, so back to the drawing board - which I guess someone beat him to (pardon the pun), going by the items shown in post #25.
Death by stupidity, or too embarassed to order a device, but not suicide. Insurance should pay, IMO.
The insurance co. doesn't care if their narrative is plausible or not. Their goal is simply to protect the bottom line. I.e.: rather than admit the obvious: that a sexual deviant accidentally killed himself, they threw everything they had at the widow and children. From a secular perspective, such a business plan certainly makes perfect sense. I wouldn't personally want to answer for it on Judgment Day, however.
Two bits about insurance companies. The first from Katrina, where if a home had wind insurance, the company would not pay, claiming the damage was from the flooding; and if the home had flood insurance, the company would not pay, claiming the damage was from the wind.
The second was of a particularly vehement lawyer working for the insurance company of a power company. Some guy had the brilliant idea to lean his very tall, aluminum ladder against a tree branch he was cutting. When the branch was cut, it no longer supported the ladder, which fell forward into power lines.
After he had won the case, that this was not the fault of the power company, he volunteered to sue the estate of the dead man, for "misappropriation-theft of electricity". The power company wisely told him no.
Those are two very interesting stories. I had my own personal, extremely vile experience w an ins. co. I try not to extrapolate from that one single experience to the entire industry, however. There are good and bad in every walk of life.
Did David Carradine's life insurance policy pay out?
"Did David Carradines life insurance policy pay out?"
I have no idea. Most life ins. policies have a suicide clause that excludes pmt for suicide for at least a few years, some might always exclude it, I don't know.
That makes sense to me, but even though it is gross, if you kill yourself in some stupid sex game, by accident, not on purpose, how is that different from falling off a ladder, etc.?
And wasn't there some question that Carradine was murdered? I don't know if that was ever a serious question or just the family being in denial.
I think the murder inquiry came from leaked details (true?untrue?) that David Carradine was tied up, unable to have choked himself to death with oxygen deprivation even if he was engaging in auto-erotic asphyxiation.
Probably paid someone (or met someone socially) who offered to play along and ran out when things required the authorities to step in.
You make a lot of sense.

In their statement,they said: "Star Trek 3 should be filming, I suppose, next year. It's going to be made a lot quicker than the last one. That's the plan, although nothing is confirmed yet."

In the new flick, giant monsters,named Kaijus, rose up through a portal in a crevasse beneath the Pacific Ocean, resulting in a war that takes millions of lives and quickly consumes humanity's resources. To combat the monsters, a massive, humanoid fighting machine, called Jaegers, was designed. It was simultaneously controlled by two pilots whose minds are bound in a neural link which lets them share the mental strain which would otherwise overwhelm a single pilot.
At first, the Jaeger program was successful at fending off the Kaiju attacks. However, over time, Kaijus crossed through the portal at a faster rate,and the new Kaiju are more well-adapted for fighting the Jaegers, causing them to become less effective. As a result, the now-united governments of Earth, lost faith in the Jaegers' ability to defend humanity, and cut off funding. Read more »

Governor Tanko Almakura of Nasarawa State just broke a jinx for people living with disabilities.
Tanko said his plan is to build an inclusive society in the state by giving those living with disabilities a sense of belonging.
To put true his words, the Governor appointed a blind person, Hon. Liman Yunusa Usman as a Councillor.
Hon. Liman is representing the governor's ward of Gayam in Lafia LGA in the recently constituted interim management committees for local councils.
Hon. Liman was a notable beggar in the streets of Lafia, Nasarawa State.

He spent 25 years on the streets asking for alms.
Defending his action, Tank said the disabled have been stigmatized by both government and the public in policy formulations.
"I was on the streets begging for more than 25 years before my appointment as councilor by Governor Al-makura.
"This shows that this government is ours; we the people living with disabilities.
"Through proceeds from street begging, I applied for my degree program in Federal University of Lafia.
"We can perform even better than the physically fit," Usman said.
"I have contested for councillorship position in 2007, 2009 and 2015.

Reacting to the appointment, the chairman of Lafia LGA, Hon. Suleiman Wambai said "We are all inspired by the gigantic strides made by Governor Almakura.
"He gives every citizen of the state a sense of belonging.
"We at the third tier of government in the state have concluded plans to step it down in our various local governments.

Are there any pitfalls, special tools or heads up needed
to be ware of before rewiring Wingers?
Just finished redoing my Gunners up. No issues. I will offer that mine were about 8 years old and the instructions on line wanted me to soder and heat shrink the connection. My winger had connectors, so I left the old male/female plugs on the servo side and added new plugs to the new wire and repluged. Much cleaner than their instructions. Only tools required for me were sockets, open end, soder gun,screw driver, and a sharp knife. You'll have no problems, just take a look at what you've got once you're inside the winger. That will show you quickly what you will need to redo everything.
Use the old existing wire, to pull the new wire through.
Don't pull the old wire out first, and then try shoving the new wire through.
i like to solder and heat shrink it takes a little longer but the connections are more secure

The dbck program has two modes: "Debug" and "recover".
The Debug (or Dump) mode merelys dumps the DB contents, and displays an
analysis of problems found. The recover mode attempts to reconstruct a
valid cert DB from the recoverable parts of the old DB.
Bug 47940 requests that Recover mode be made to work with softoken.
This bug requests that Debug mode be made to work with softoken.
Created attachment 208687 [details] [diff] [review]
patch part 1 - for softoken
This patch is a prerequisite to the forthcoming dbck patch.
It provides the changes needed in softoken for dbck.
This patch adds a new function to libsoftoken, and corrects the certDBEntry
union to be a union of ALL the cert DBEntry structs.
The new function can decode any of the current entry types.
It's designed to be used by callbacks called by nsslowcert_TraverseDBEntries().
Bob, please review.
Created attachment 208690 [details] [diff] [review]
patch part 2 - dbck changes
dbck originally had two functional modes: debug and recovery. The recovery
code has been ifdeffed out for a long time, and will need much rework.
This patch moves most of the recovery code into a new separate file.
It makes debug mode work properly. I have tested it on several cert DBs.
This patch requires the other patch, to lib/softoken, as a prerequisite.
Bob, please review, although this is obviously not high priority.
Here is sample output from the command
dbck -d <mydir> -D -m -a
using my cert DB from my mozilla profile at home:
Database statistics:
N0: Found 220 Certificate entries.
N1: Found 203 Subject entries (unique DN's).
N2: Found 220 Cert keys within Subject entries.

Comment on attachment 208687 [details] [diff] [review]
patch part 1 - for softoken
r+ with the following comments:
The inclusion of lowkeyti.h does not appear to be releated to the rest of this patch.
Thanks for the review Bob.
The inclusion of lowkeyti.h is related to this patch. dbck.c now includes pcert.h. There's a function declaration in pcert.h that returns a pointer
to type NSSLOWKEYPublicKeyStr. If you include pcert.h without including
lowkeyti.h, you get a syntax error in pcert.h at that declaration.
As you know, I believe that each of our header files should be able to
"stand alone", that is, it should #include any dependencies it has, so
that a .c file can #include it, and not have to go find all its dependencies.
So I added that #include to pcert.h rather than to dbck.c.
Ok, so it fixes a bug in pcert.h. It's fine to go in then.
Comment on attachment 208690 [details] [diff] [review]
patch part 2 - dbck changes
r+ with the following comments:
very minor nit: Printf presents -R as an option even if DORECOVER is not defined (just before printing the usage message.
General: Most of this code is likely 'going away' in the shared db. It will stay around as a way to access legacy databases. This work is still useful, however, since 1) it will help diagnose problems with current and old databases, 2) it's not clear when the shared database work will go in (I'm targeting 3.12, but it may not go in until 3.13). 3) This code will still be around for access to old databases.
I just wanted to set the expectations.
