- Convenience Wins, Hubris Loses and Content vs. Context
Superficially about the music industry, this excellent presentation has a message for everyone intending to deliver via the web (including Sun's own file download experience). - Open Data Licenses
This is interesting; first real moves I have seen despite all the noise in O'ReillyLand last year and before. - NextGen UltraSPARC servers are here and Ubuntu's on board
Yep, there's GNU/Linux on them there UltraSPARC servers. - Groklaw has a pro-Sun bias?
... and squadrons of pigs are using the frozen surface of hell as a landing strip. - OpenOffice.org at Jeremy’s Blog
"I forget sometimes how difficult a position Sun has put themselves in ... they continue to take a beating in the community. I wonder how long it is until some will think they have paid their dues."

thanks for helping to spread the word on the Open Data License work that we've been funding.
We're keen to get the word out, keep the debate going, and secure a good home from which the licenses can continue to grow and be used.

Great link to Jeremy's Blog on OpenOffice. No matter their past, I thank Sun every day for what they did with StarOffice/OpenOffice. Who ELSE has ever done anything close with such "big" software? Answer: no one.
Let Sun decide what's best for OpenOffice, even if that includes agreeing to let others have some directional control for a while. OpenOffice users will forever be grateful to Sun, and to show it, go buy another StarOffice license!
