1. They don't object Best Buy claim that SFC 'agent' has no standing at
all. Ciao SFC plaintiff. Ha ha.
 
2. Regarding the bogus copyright registration and lack of identification
of Andersen's actual work, the answer is basically it's all in the CVS
and Subversion logs so go dig it out yourself dear copyright office and
defendants. Ha ha.

3. The rights under the GPL really really automatically terminate on a
slightest breach with no way to cure and the only way out is to beg for
reinstantiation of rights. Ha ha.

4. The plaintiffs are really really irreparably harmed. LOL.

5. Dear judge, free us poor plaintiffs from the obligation to post the
security bond... LMAO.

The SFLC is utterly clueless concerning the registration of derivative
works. SFLC says:

The first version of BusyBox Andersen released
after leaving Lineo was version 0.60.3. That
version contained 8,897 lines of brand new code
added by Andersen after leaving Lineo. This new
code added functionality and improvements to the
stability of BusyBox's core features. Williamson
Decl. Ex. A at 274:5– 276:24. A large portion of
this code, 5,794 lines, he wrote entirely by
himself.

So... we are now down to 5,794 lines of code of unregistered,
unidentified lines of code -- not BusyBox  0.60.3. Remember
the SFLC Complaint?

BusyBox is a single computer program that comprises a set of computing
tools and optimizes them for computers with limited resources,
such as cell phones, PDAs, and other small, specialized electronic devices.

Andersen was registering ...a single computer program..., *except* it
is now ...5,794 lines... of code.

Best Buy anticipated this ploy:

[n.11] If Mr. Andersen were to later claim that he is trying to enforce
only his personal contributions to v.0.60.3, those contributions have
not been defined, they are not before the Court, and they are not
alleged to be in the accused devices.

Sincerely,
RJack :)

 So... we are now down to 5,794 lines of code of unregistered,

Actually we are now down to 3,078 lines, see below.

 unidentified lines of code -- not BusyBox  0.60.3. Remember

Note that the line count includes both '.h'-headers and '.c'-files. 

Headers contain zilch of copyrightable expression.

Note also that Best Buy distributed version 1.2.1 and not 0.60.3.

From Kuhn's declaration:

I inspected the commit logs stored at http://www.busybox.net to
determine Erik Andersen's recorded contributions to BusyBox version
0.60.3 that were still present in BusyBox version 1.2.1. I found that of
the 8,868 lines of code Andersen added or was the last to edit in
BusyBox version 0.60.3, 4,884 remain unchanged in BusyBox version 1.2.1.
I also found that of the 5,794 lines of code that Andersen added or was
the last to edit in BusyBox version 0.60.3, excluding situations where
Andersen noted in the log that he was contributing a patch written in
part or in whole by another developer, 3,078 lines of code remain
unchanged in BusyBox version 1.2.1. In particular, I ran a computer
program that processed the author data associated with each line of code
contained in BusyBox version 1.2.1 files ending in .c or .h applying
similar criteria as described in ¶ 6 and ¶ 7 of this declaration, and
finding those lines where the author and timestamp data had not changed
between version 0.60.3 and version 1.2.1.

Question - Best forums to start an free project

2011-03-22 Thread Hiram
Hello,

I would like to know if you know of some forums or mailing lists where I can 
submit a message to START a free application project. I'm interested in 
developing a new integrated development environment and have some ideas on what 
to focus and what features to develop. However, I would like to exchange these 
ideas and try to start programming a new IDE and publish it somewhere but I'm 
kind of very lost.

Thanks for your help beforehand,

/Hiram

Discussions in this group are centered around a legally unenforceable
but vexatious license known as the GPL. The license vainly attempts to
convince folks that it can take control of others exclusive rights
in their source code. The GPL is not a free license but one that
attempts to be highly restrictive. Avoid it at all costs.

You should google for various BSD groups that release their projects
under the BSD style open source license. The Apache license is also
a good license to use for open source, truly free applications.

Sincerely,
RJack :)

As you can see, this group has its resident trolls.  I think it strongly
depends on where the focus of your IDE is supposed to be, what language
it is supposed to be written in, what language supposed to support etc
etc.

In the GNU world, Emacs is mostly used as an IDE.  Of course, it has
quite a number of quirks, having evolved for 30 years.  So the question
is whether you can raise lots of interest for your project.

Eclipse is also rather well-known.  GNOME/KDE might have their own
preferred things.  And so on.

Basically the question is who would be interested in your software for
what purpose.

And in general: if you have not even gotten to the point proof of
concept code, it will be very hard to interest anybody in joining your
project rather than starting his own.
