Philip Zimmermann, the inventor of the widely used PGP encryption protocol, announced that he has left Network Associates Inc. because he and the company no longer agree about the future of PGP.

"The code should build out of the box on the three "standard" platforms - Linux/x86, Solaris/sparc and win32/x86 - as well as on Linux/ppc and Solaris/x86. Work on porting to several platforms is ongoing and the ports will probably see code inmprovements in the OO619B timeline."

"I've long contended that for all the discussion in the Linux and open source arenas about the GPL (GNU Public License), a lot of people don't really know what the license does and doesn't say. So why don't we put my theory to the test and have a little fun with a licensing quiz?"

"Originally, all domain name resolution occurred on one computer, which contained a text file called HOSTS.TXT. However, as time went on, the HOSTS.TXT file required update after update. The computer containing this file was also being overrun with name resolution requests. Managing millions of constantly changing sets of name became a serious problem, so each domain that is registered now has its own DNS file."

"The open source movement is no threat to the software industry or to intellectual property. It is threatening to Microsoft and its protectionist practices of the past. The reason Jim doesn’t like the open source movement is because it is doing the same thing to Microsoft that Microsoft does to other companies."

"This is a down and dirty guide to compiling Apache with PHP, MySQL and SSL support, as well as how to install SGI's 10xpatch for apache_1.3 series and the ZendOptimizer."

"There's really no need for Bill Gates and his people to fear the loss of their intellectual property," e-smith CEO Joseph Morrison said. "The truth is, we don't want their code. Why would we, when we already have something that's much better for our customers?"

"But what do we do when one of our own, a company with long-time roots in our community, rejects our code of ethics and resorts to underhanded, deceitful tactics for the express purpose of undermining an Open Source project?"

"The following hypothetical is a possible way that an unscrupulous company can bypass the restrictions of the general public license (GPL). I'd love to hear from anyone that can find a flaw in the argument."
