{Off topic} Open sourcers urged to adopt dancing poultry license-- The Register
by Suhit Kelkar 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

Please take this in the spirit in which it is intended. To be humorous, humour has to ruffle feathers. And laughter is man's foremost right. PS: for the record, I am pro-GPL. Consider that for one to jeer at what one loves may be construed as an act of nobility. --Suhit. Open sourcers urged to adopt dancing poultry licenseFree software in Swiss polka revolution By Cade Metz in San Francisco<http://forms.theregister.co.uk/mail_author/?story_url=/2011/03/26/chicken_d…> <http://search.theregister.co.uk/?author=Cade%20Metz> Posted in Odds and Sods <http://www.theregister.co.uk/odds/>, 26th March 2011 00:33 GMT <http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/03/26/> In an effort to revolutionize the world of open source, a free software advocate has submitted a new license to the Open Source Initiative. The document is two years in the making, and it's known as the CDL, short for Chicken Dance License. "The purpose of this license is to make intellectual property far more entertaining to deal with," writes Andrew Harris, the author of the license. "Rather than boring old GPL violations or licensing agreements for GPL software, [an] entertaining video of people doing the chicken dance is produced. If this was taken to court, CDL violators may even have to perform the chicken dance retroactively!" The license is meant to offset the heavy legal component of open source software. "We all want fewer lawyers in software, but that isn't always possible," he says. "We might as well dress up the ugly legal side of it all with classic Swiss polka." According to the submission, the license is based on the BSD. "I figured this was a good place to start for the CDL," he continues. "It's easy to understand and relatively short. Of note are my fourth clause and the disclaimer I added relieving oneself of liability from injuries and expenses sustained from performing the chicken dance." The license is available here <http://supertunaman.com/cdl/cdl_v0-1.txt>. Under clause 4 of the license, anyone wishing to distribute CDL software without redistributing source code must submit to the following conditions: - For every thousand (1,000) units distributed, at least half of the employees or persons affiliated with the product must listen to the "Der Ententanz" (AKA "The Chicken Dance") as composed by Werner Thomas for no less than two (2) minutes - For every twenty-thousand (20,000) units distributed, two (2) or more persons affiliated with the entity must be recorded performing the full Chicken Dance, in an original video at the entity's own expense, and a video encoded in OGG Theora format, at least three (3) minutes in length, must be submitted to <OWNER>, provided <OWNER>'s contact information. The dance must be based upon the instructions on how to do the Chicken Dance that you should have received with this software. If you have not received instructions on how to do the Chicken Dance, then the dance must be chicken-like in nature. - Any employee or person affiliated with the product must be prohibited from saying the word "plinth" in public at all times, as long as distribution of the product continues. It would seem, however, that the license is unlikely to win approval. "Clause 4 appears to conflict with OSD clause 5 because people with disabilities or cultural obligations preventing them from either singing or dancing (or religious issues portraying chickens) would not have equal freedoms under the license," writes OSI director Simon Phipps. "It also violates OSD clause 6 as it would prevent use in the plinth industry. There are also difficulties concerning dependence on contact information being up-to-date such that freedoms would cease to be available in the event <OWNER> becomes uncontactable." No doubt, Google will object to the CDL on the grounds of license proliferation. And then Microsoft will introduce its own version, dubbed the Permissive Chicken Dance license, which will require anyone who uses its code to perform the Swiss polka until they die from exhaustion. ®

Cron exception - alternate?
by Roshan 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

All, I have RE-started my journey into Unixes/Linuxes recently (if 6+ months is that), though I was into it in the earlier years of my college days. I seem to have forgotten things or probably cannot recall certain things at the right time. Nevertheless, here's why I am sending this email. I did not know about a cron exception and had to assume a particular behaviour. I have detailed that example in Wikipedia, from which, I paste a small section of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- >From Wikipedia: For "day of the week" (field 5), both 0 and 7 are considered Sunday, though some versions of Unix such as AIX do not list "7" as acceptable in the man page. While normally the job is executed when the time/date specification fields /all/ match the current time and date, there is one exception: if both "day of month" and "day of week" are restricted (not "*"), then either the "day of month" field (3) or the "day of week" field (5) must match the current day. The above exception would cause trouble when cron is used to specify a task that has to be run on a specific date and time by specifying "day of the month", "month", "day of the week" (where day of the month falls on day of the week). As an example see below 45 19 26 02 06 run_this_task.sh In an obvious case, one would look at it and read: run_this_task.sh runs on Saturday, 26th Feb at 7:45 PM in the evening However, CRON looks at it like this: If it is 26th Feb at 7:45 PM, run_this_task.sh, even though it is NOT Saturday (effectively reading only: 45 19 26 02) OR If it is 7:45 PM on a Saturday, run_this_task.sh, even though it is NOT 26th Feb. (effectively reading only: 45 19 <> <> 06) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this case, I would assume, it would not be wise to use CRON to schedule a one time task due to the above "OR" condition. (cron is a 'regular' habit for me ;) ) I think, using "at" is more apt for scheduling one time tasks? (Am I correct?) -- Roshan Baladhanvi

File named with 2 variables

Hello, I am creating / appending files using a variable as the input name. Eg. $USER.jpeg makes a file called rony.jpeg . I want to add 2 variables to the file name instead of one and make $USER-$DATE.jpeg (rony-23/03/11.jpeg). What is the correct syntax for it as I keep getting errors in the mv as well as rename command. Tried $USER_$DATE or $USER.$DATE etc but no result. Did look up google but it has complex sed scripts. -- As a proper list etiquette..... Please trim your replies. Avoid cross posting to other lists.

how to bypass ISP blocking NAT?
by Ratnakar Koli 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hi friends, I have a internet connection from Nivyah Broadband, Mumbai. I have been using it for long now, and sharing it using a netgear router. Unfortunately, around 1 month back, I found that I am not able to use the internet. I did a traceroute, it showed no problem, but I was still not able to browse. I tried using other service provider on the same settings i.e. changing the access-concentrator details etc. it works fine. Switched back to Nivyah and again the same result. I am not able to browse or in otherwords not able to use internet. Please can somebody guide me, how can I bypass the ISP blocking me from using internet from a router? Also, I would like to know, how would an ISP come to know that I am sharing my net connection. I tried googling it, but was not able to find any satisfying document on same, on my own. If there is anything on same I would definitely like to read on it. Please assist. Thank you Ratnakar Koli

[OT] Initial Experiences in 3G

Hello, After Vodafone announced the commencement of their 3G services that can give top speeds of 21 Mbps, it was tried out on a Nokia N82 handset which has UMTS 2100 support and download speed upto 3 Mbps. The speed of surfing is a wee bit faster than EDGE but not very fast and a mobile speed test showed a download speed of 281 Kbps, a far cry from the original claims.

Calculating Time Difference in Bash
by Rony 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Hello, I am trying to set up an el-cheapo attendance system that only calculates how late the person has come with reference to a fixed office time. I don't want to use any database+server thing as that is complex and users are less than 20. I am thinking of a simple approach with cheap and simple biometrics to prevent impersonation. A cheap web cam will click light thumbnails and a timestamp will be generated. Every month a file will be generated after which the photos can be erased automatically. The result file will be a .csv one that can be imported in any Office application. I am stuck at the point of calculating time difference. There doesn't seem to be a direct command that will calculate time difference in HH:MM format. This link mentions a work around http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/shell-script-to-get-the-time-difference/ but it first converts time into %s which is the number of seconds since 1970. However every day for the fixed opening time, say 10:00 this figure is not constant. One way out is that every day the %s figure is generated at exactly 10:00 and this is then 'diff'ed with the user's attendance time in %s. This is then divided by 60. Is there a simpler bash command that I may have overlooked that simply takes in 10:17 and 10:00 and says 00:17? -- As a proper list etiquette..... Please trim your replies.

Kohacon Registration page - Co-presenter anybody?
by Rajagopal Swaminathan 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Greetings, Please note that there are participants from at least 14 countries apart from India that too within few weeks of announcement. http://kohacon11.vpmthane.org/ocs/index.php/k/k11/schedConf/registration Surely the students and practiioners too will gain a lot. I am planning to experiment and present CentOS as a robust High Availability Platform for Applications like KOHA/DRUPAL etc. I don't know what I will Land up with though over the course of time. Some of the question I am looking at in a practical viewpoint of an Application and IT infrastructure Architect are: 1. We need to look at lifetime of the application like KOHA - perhaps 10 year in the timeline of a library? 2. Is the quick changing Fedora/Ubuntu stand the trial? 3. What is the interaction between DSpace etc? 4. Can they both be running in HA peacefully? 5. etc. If so please reply on this list. I must declare that I am not going to invest INR(Money) in this. I can't afford HA hardware at this point of time. Would anybody like to join me in presenting a paper or experimenting? Perhaps two different department can jointly decide to own one server each and bring it together for HA demo teaching purposes and then use it later individually or using the HA setup for themselves and to educate next gen of the students.

PHP timestamp difference on Linux and Windows systems
by pankaj＠glug4muz.org 20 Mar '11

20 Mar '11

Hi, When I am executing a php code like below: <?php $timestamp=mktime(0,0,0,3,1,2011); echo $timestamp; ?> on Linux and Windows system then there is always a difference of 19800 in output. The result shown on Linux system is always 19800 less than the value displayed on Windows system. But theoretically output on both systems should be same because the number of seconds elapsed since 01/01/1970 to 03/01/2011 should always be same on both operating systems. Can any one please explain the reason behind this difference. -- Best Regards ... Pankaj Kumar

Hi I am using Ubuntu 10.04(Lucid). My mtnl wireless connection was working pretty smoothly for a long time. Until recently when I had some landline issues. Now the connection seems to be experiencing some problems. Some observations: - Sites are taking more than expected time to open up - Facebook and Twitter not reachable at all (this might sound funny, but its true) I am using Firefox 3.6.15 What could be the problem? -- Sahil Dave
