FCC Approves 802.11b Phased Array
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/12/17/0237221
n6zfx writes "802.11b Networking News is [0]reporting that [1]vivato
received FCC approval for the [2]802.11b AP that has a range of 4
miles... This was [3]discussed recently here on slashdot -- There were
[4]comments that it might not be totally legal. Hopefully, this paves
the way for more WISPs, bigger hotspots, and replacement of [5]outdated
wireless technology that seemed to be the only competitor to DSL and
tv-cable for the last mile."

Who Owns Science?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/12/17/006254
immerrath writes "The New York Times has an [0]article [Sorry,
tomorrow's article, no Google link yet] on a movement that is rapidly
gaining support in the scientific community: the [1]Public Library of
Science(PLoS). The founders, [2]Nobel Laureate [3]Harold Varmus,
Stanford biologist [4]Pat Brown and Berkeley Lab scientist [5]Michael
Eisen, argue that scientific literature cannot be privately controlled
or owned by the publishers of scientific journals, and must instead be
available in public archives freely accessible by anyone and everyone.
This has very important implications for the fundamental principle that
Science must transcend all economic, national and other barriers. For a
while now, PLoS has been trying to get scientific journals to release
the rights to scientific papers; many major [6]journals have not
complied -- in response, PLoS is starting PLoS-standard-compliant
[7]journals (for which they received a $9 million grant from the
[8]Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation), to demonstrate the validity of
the idea and persuade academic publishers to adopt the free access
model. They even have a GPL-like open access [9]Licence, and their
journals have some very prominent scientists on the [10]editorial
board. Here is the text of an earlier [11]Newsweek article about PLoS,
and here is a Nature [12]Public Debate explaining the issues. Michael
Eisen received the 2002 [13]Benjamin Franklin award for his work on
PLoS. Don't forget to sign the [14]PLoS open letter!"

Whither America's Technological Edge?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/12/16/1724232
[0]baldass_newbie asks: "Ben Stein wrote an editorial titled, '[1]How
to Ruin American Enterprise'. To me, technological innovation is a big
outward sign of a successful economy. Sometimes it appears like the
U.S. is losing its edge in technology. Well, I was wondering what the
Slashdot community at large thinks is wrong (or right) with the U.S.
and technological innovation?" The article deals less with technology
and more with the society on which said innovation is based, and the
problems that may bring it down around our collective ears. Give the
article a read, and share your thoughts on whether or not you think
it's an accurate assessment on the current and future situation of
America's technological advantage.

bash programmable completion 20021217
