thafreakOh nice...I just had to show my boss amazon's AWS website, and I notice that new users now get 5GB free storage on S3/month for their first year20:16
paultagthafreak, :)20:22
deejoeyeah, I'm wondering if I'll be able to get a free instance for work, and then a free instance for personal.20:22
BiosElementWow...22:12
BiosElementApache Foundation is protecting Oracle/Sun's breach of contract by trying to scuttle the JCP Council agreement for Java 7 and yet people make Apache out to be the bad guys. Awesome22:12
* BiosElement has a solution. apt-get purge java22:13
deejoeBiosElement: they're what?22:21
deejoegot link?22:21
BiosElementdeejoe, A few pages ago, lemme grab it ^_^22:22
BiosElementdeejoe, http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2010/11/apache-foundation-to-vote-down-java-7-protesting-oracle-abuses.ars22:23
deejoeBiosElement: ah, thanks22:26
BiosElementdeejoe, The long/short of it is sun/oracle release some of the code FOSS but the 'java test suite' to verify it's a legit java setup and such is 'not' open source. Meaning Apache's java thingy isn't actually java per oracle/sun22:26
deejoegot it22:26
BiosElementKinda a joke really. >.>22:26
deejoeI think it's safe to say that detractors of Apache's position are invested in Java first, and have concerns about software freedom only second, if at all.22:27
deejoenot that hard to imagine, given the prevalence of java in CS education of late22:27
BiosElementdeejoe, Heck, some of the comments are "I DUN CARE!" flat out :P22:27
deejoeheh22:27
deejoewell, guess what, Apache et al dun care back at you.22:28
deejoe("you" meaning "them" of course :-)22:28
BiosElementHey, the way I see it, Oracle/Sun wanna play games and destroy their own JCP thingy, Apache's just playing the same game in return22:28
