This is wonderful news. I was planning to attend my first 'rally' on saturday to protest UBB. I was shocked at how even non techies cared so much about this issue. I hope the monopolies(rogers&bell) don't try less subtle ways to achie

I am curious, does your certification and testing involve anything with the FDA? I worked at one of the big sleep companies before and we always had to adhere to FDA regulations even though we were careful to be 'monitoring' and not 'diagno

Same with me. I spent over 1k with a friend on turk, even reported blatant security issues to one of the PM's yet I was unable to sign up and had to get my American friend to do it. I see no reason why they can't open it up to Canada. Terr

But they went to America to pursue their startup. Their incorporation is in America and they live/operate in America. They left Britain to pursue their startup. So I think your refutation is the opposite of what you intended it to be.

The legal ramifications will be interesting once it is released to the masses and not just a few partners. Org's such as the UFC or NFL will hate this far more than they hate justin.tv/ustream.tv because it will make live streaming more mai

I think the specific license you choose is a bigger factor than the amount of code or of a product open sourced. I think the line is, if you are the dominant open source player in a specific market or likely to be, like sugarcrm is, it make

The problem is that a lot of skilled people who come to Canada end up having a difficult time finding a job and not all skilled workers are the same. One example I read in the paper was someone from Africa who was an architect. They quali

I am glad to find out there are some other issues with it. My main disappointment with it however remains its license. It would of been really cool if Google released it with a CC or MIT license but instead its restricted for academic usa
