Hi,
Recently my ISP (HUJI) has blocked the connection to IRC ports. When I talked
to the guys in the computation authority, I was told that this was done
because of security and bandwidth reasons. I tried to talk about academic
freedom etc, but with no success. Then I

I've just heard about BogoFilter and see that people on that other forum
think it's better than SpamAssasin (based on their personal experience).

Has anyone here tried it or know of comparisons between it and other
anti-spam software?

Hi,
My gliding club is going to write their own software, after years of being
dependent on an ancient Magic software that no-one could update and did
a fraction of the requirements.

Their argument for Access is that we

We are looking for a good Wiki type solution for hamakor's web site.
Being the reknown paranoid I am, I'm looking for a well known solution,
prefereably one that I can just apt-get install. For reasons I would

My argument against MS software:
They force you to upgrade to more recent versions of their environment.
When you upgrade, it is not only money but you have also to update your
software because they don't maintain backward compatibility.
And they force you to upgrade when you hit a security

Unfortunetly, at the moment Postgres only has a cygwin version for
Windows. There is no native Win32 version at this stage. Also, due to
name folding differences, you may find that some tweaking of the SQL
statements is required. I have started a project in the past to allow
easy translation

Access is underpowered as multi user DBMS.
Access is overpowered for single user data management (unless the users
knows his/her way around an RDBMS).
To take make any use of Access you need a really good VB
