Hi, If software that is non-free is software that is not part of the GNU project, then Linux is non-free, and someone has somewhere defined free as being GNU. If you disallow links to software that itself provides links to non-free software, you are effectively trying to create your own separate

Hi, Is there any plan to record any of this, either by publishing digital copies of paper stuff, presentations etc., or by publishing videos or sound files? I can't come, but it'd be interesting to sit at home and pretend :) Ricky. On Thu, Oct 09, 2003 at 04:18:10PM +0200, Sascha Brawer wrote:

Hi, I believe the functionality of @unimplemented would be adequately replaced by @since and throw new UnsupportedOperationException. To find out what methods of, e.g., JDK1.2 are unsupported, you can simply search for methods that have @since 1.2 and throw UnsupportedOperationException from

Hi, As you've probably guessed by now from previous emails, I'm bored, there's nothing on TV, so I'm browsing some Classpath source. Once I can get it to configure and make properly I'll probably concentrate more on contributing source and fixing bugs than docs, but at least I know (hope) the
