Jeff,

You can guess how I share such pride as I often express the very same one..:-). Particularly when the object of my pride does this: http://kikithon.org/tiki-index.php

And I particularly share your last sentence!

Comment on Autopackage Considered Harmful by Morgan

@Rick K / Cash Tornado

AFAIK, Autopackage is still not the standard way to install apps. The way it most of the time requires root access to install anything will definitely not go well with 90% of the linux users. Why do you think windows users get new malware every other day.

A few distro’s have adopted it but I don’t see it picking up anytime soon.

Comment on Damned If You Do by kitchenpantry

What needs to really be looked at are emerging technologies like the “pee battery”. This is a battery that in order to charge, you pee on it. If you have not heard of this already, it sounds like a joke, but it is real. Another area to really look into are magnets. A powerful generator can be build using strong magnets to repell another in order for the generator to spin for the life of the magnets, which is longer than you will live. We are very close to having small magnets that are small in size but large in mass that would be extremely effective. Nano tubing is probably the breakthrough that will bring new alternatives to the problem.

I agree, the sole purpose it to protect those offering and/or distributing the software from legal liability. Even with free stuff, do developers and distributers get in trouble due to abuse.

Nice overview but have there been any updates to this since 2005? Seems like there must have been – in technology 6 years is a long time…
