"Hi all, Ok, this thing is still a bumpy ride and there isn't much yet, but I need to try this. So what is this? I'll just post some code and link to some "dead" HTML snapshots of the results. After getting things up and running (see mention of INSTALL below), start with "Hello World": ..."

Why the Linux world should embrace the BSD's
http://www.raiden.net –
There are some in this world who believe that Linux is the king of all operating systems. In some ways I agree with them because Linux certainly is a big player in the server world. It may lack in market share in the the desktop sector, but that doesn't mean it's a lesser operating system.

Sun Financials: Not Good News for Open Source
http://ostatic.com –
Sun Microsystems has announced its 3rd Quarter earnings - and its stock promptly took a substantial hit. No wonder, since the company managed to report a loss of $34 million instead of the profit that analysts were expecting, and may be cutting up to 7.5% of its employees - 2500 jobs.

Will market reject Sun’s open source vision?
http://blogs.zdnet.com –
As I noted here in January, while Sun sits at the bottom of the open source incline, having embraced GPL licensing, it actually sits near the top of the open source development incline. This means Sun’s projects are essentially proprietary efforts. Sun decides the strategy, Sun controls the code releases. Sun “owns” mySQL, and takes that ownership seriously.

http://blogs.zdnet.com –
Sun reported a nightmare quarter, elicited more cold Java analogies than I can count and announced layoffs due to a weak economy. Can open source move the needle at Sun and spark some growth? In a word: No.

For years, device and peripheral builders could get away with ignoring the Linux desktop market. It was too small to matter, they would say. Things have changed.

http://www.linuxjournal.com –
A couple weeks back, I headed down to Penguicon 6.0. It's a Linux convention, but also a Science Fiction convention. Really, it's like a geeky version of, "Hey your chocolate is in my peanut butter." My intention at the time was to record lots and lots of footage, so Linux Journal readers could get a real feel for the con, from the comfort of their local Internet feed.

Windows Decline - Success for the Linux PC
http://havemacwillblog.com –
If you pick apart the recent set of Microsoft results (Q1/08) you discover that sales of Microsoft Windows fell by 24% (from $5.3 billion to $4 billion). When the PC market worldwide is growing at 12%, a collapse of 24% sounds disastrous, but those figures provide a distorted view.

Marriages of Inconvenience
