Gnome And KDE Might Collaborate Into Creating A FLOSS Alternative To Dropbox
,----[ Quote ]
| There is an ongoing discussion on a Gnome
| mailing list which points out that Gnome
| and KDE might collaborate for a new
| project: a FLOSS alternative to Dropbox.
|
| One might think: well, we have Ubuntu One -
| but that's only for Ubuntu (even though
| work is done to port it to other Linux
| distributions too - or it was done at some
| point) and also it's KDE integration is
| still experimental (and not official as far
| as I know). And finally: many will agree
| that Ubuntu One is not the best
| implementation of this great idea so there
| is room for some competition. And also, the
| Ubuntu One server is not open source (only
| the client is) and it seems there are no
| plans to open-source it.

March Xfce desktop
,----[ Quote ]
| Shook up my Xfce desktop a bit. I've always
| been a fan of darker environments,
| especially those with blue tones. This
| one's mysterious and fantastic. I did keep
| the same icon theme as last month, as I
| don't have anything more suitable installed
| at the moment. I'm still looking for
| something a bit more suited to my current
| setup.

Is Wikipedia's "Deletionism" Out of Control?
,----[ Quote ]
| Guarding against inaccurate content, spam,
| biased material, and unverifiable entries
| is admirable. The relentless pursuit of
| deleting content because someone unfamiliar
| with a topic decides that it's not
| "notable" enough is not. The fact that this
| continues to be a problem even for a
| project like dwm demonstrates that
| Wikipedia is still not working well. While
| the site certainly provides a valuable
| resource, some portion of its community is
| ensuring that it is not as valuable as it
| could be.

Window Maker Desktop: Lightweight Linux Minimalism
,----[ Quote ]
| Window Maker is a fast, lightweight window
| manager based as closely as possible on the
| look and feel of the NeXTStep interface.
| (You may be familiar with NeXTStep an
| ancestor of Mac OSX, although the look and
| feel has changed a fair bit between the
| two.)
