SCO: FSF Reply To GPL Claims, Conference Sponsors Back Off? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/08/18/1943234

    [0]bkuhn writes "Last week's Wall Street Journal (and other news     outlets) carried [1]statements by SCO's Mark Heise challenging the     "legality" of FSF's GPL. [2]FSF has issued a response to this baseless     claim." Also, [3]mcgroarty points out that Intel and HP seem to be     backing swiftly away from their sponsorship of SCO's in-progress Las     Vegas conference (a [4]EWeek article suggests that "Intel Corp. was     recently billed as one of the lead sponsors of SCO's [5]Forum 2003     conference here this week, but then suddenly disappeared from all     marketing and press material for the forum. It appears that     Hewlett-Packard Co. also got cold feet. As late as last week, SCO was     telling attendees that HP would be giving a partner keynote at the     forum on Tuesday morning. But on Sunday the [6]schedule of events given     to attendees when they registered makes no mention of an HP     keynote...") [7]M adds: Now we've got a few stories from the     conference: [8]News.com.com and [9]Eweek. Despite some bad headline     writing at News.com, SCO simply continues to employ the Chewbacca     defense, showing no code to back up their claims. Amusingly, Darl     McBride started his rant about copyright infringement by copying some     footage from a James Bond movie. Bravo! Links

Solving a Wiring Mess?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/08/18/202249

    [0]FueledByRamen asks: "While trying to run a new power line for a     large Sun mass-storage cabinet (located nowhere near a 220 outlet of     course), I had the misfortune of needing to pop the lid on my main     power distribution panel (previously opened in the late 80s). The whole     thing is a rats nest and probably a fire hazard - old-style wiring with     broken-down cloth/plastic insulation strewn everywhere, and the     utility's incoming power cables have some sort of junction in them     that's the size of a 1-liter bottle (on each wire) and is covered in     layers of electrical tape. Even (gently) putting the panel back on     jiggled something important, and there was a nasty cracking noise and     half the breakers blew (all breakers in one of the 2 columns). I've     worked with mains voltage in the past (wiring new rooms, installing     lighting), but nothing on this scale, both in terms of complexity and     potential for death. How do you industrious Slashdot readers go about     fixing a mess like this (on a tight budget, no less) without getting a     mains-induced glimpse at the great beyond?" Links
