Lower compliance costs with open source tools

,----[ Quote ]
| These are just a few of the many open source 
| tools that help with compliance. I also like 
| RANCID for network device configuration 
| management and Nagios for IT infrastructure 
| monitoring. Don't forget about the many IT 
| policy resources, such as the templates 
| available from SANS.

Opera moves Dragonfly to Apache for patent promise

,----[ Quote ]
| Opera has switched its Dragonfly open source 
| debug tool to an Apache 2.0 license to 
| include a promise that users are protected 
| from patents owned by Opera or any other 
| contributor to the project.
| 
| Dragonfly - similar to Mozilla's Firebug 
| tool - completed its open sourcing in 
| February, when it was moved from Opera 
| servers to BitBucket. It was originally 
| under the BSD license.

| One thing we have got to change is our strategy -- allowing Office
| documents to be rendered very well by OTHER PEOPLES BROWSERS is one of the
| most destructive things we could do to the company.
|
| We have to stop putting any effort into this and make sure that Office
| documents very well depends on PROPRIETARY IE capabilities.
|
| Anything else is suicide for our platform. This is a case where Office has
| to to destroy Windows.
