Hmm, I just checked. Their website is there, it's just that the press release was important enough to serve as splash screen. See, e.g., http://www.globalgamingfactory.com/Organisation.html

I don't think the analogy holds very well. Woonerven have a speed limit called "a horse's walk" (less than 20 kph). Obviously such a speed limit is not what Python's about. Woonerven also contain many speed-decreasing measures like speed bu

If what you're saying is true, then it will not be a victory in the sense of A defeats B, it will be one where the world is changed. If pirates win, the whole industry as it is now will disappear and a revenue model will win. Whether this i

According to that article BMW was breaching Google's guidelines. No such thing can be said for Experts-Exchange. The simple fact that you don't like Experts-Exchange should not be any reason for Google to remove the page. I personally don't
