BluesKajHi all13:46
CPhoenixPhew…quieter in here. Anyone know if Canonical is going to release Ubuntu TV in Canada?21:35
CPhoenixBecause if bill C-11 gets passed…we're screwed.21:35
pangolinubuntu tv is open source and it will be up to the "partner manufacturers" to decide where they will/can sell the tv.21:54
pangolinDon't know what bill C-11 is but I am not to happy with the idea of being screwed without my consent21:55
dscasselC-11 is the new copyright bill before the House. Think DMCA. http://c11.ca/22:11
dscassel(That sight's maintained, incidentally, by free software friend, Russel McCormand).22:12
dscasseler, site.22:12
dscasselAlso, er, Russell McOrmond. He's on the ubuntu-ca mailing list.22:13
CPhoenixdscassel: Well, DMCA at least made some allowances for consumer use, no?23:41
CPhoenixThis is more like…"ARRRRR, you can never copyyyyyyyyy!!!" No format or time shifting (moving to an iPod, recording something to watch later), and worse, it'd be a criminal offence to do so.23:42
