[00:29:34] <jbk> worked like a charm [00:29:52] <jbk> someone told the hp engineers '1-800-usa-4sun -- they'll teach you how to make those' :) [00:30:25] *** lacaAFK is now known as laca [00:30:29] <sommerfeld> out of perverse curiosity I once took a look at the "site prep handbook" for either the E10k or F15k. had a caution about rolling the racks over perforated floor tiles. something tells me someone figured that out the hard way..

[05:39:46] <Xaero_Vincent> anyway..just curious [05:40:06] <jbk> i really don't see the problem with the current license [05:40:19] <jbk> the only criticism people can seem to come up with is 'it's not the gpl' [05:40:35] <Xaero_Vincent> im not really a solaris user..

[05:47:33] <Xaero_Vincent> Microsoft has already did this with some of the networking stack code [05:47:39] <twincest> so? [05:47:42] <jbk> but again, they don't have the experts, the experience that comes with it [05:48:07] <jbk> and if they're basically sitting around copying what others are doing, they're not coming up with the next thing [05:49:12] <delewis> Xaero_Vincent: and the stack *still* sucks.

[11:45:00] <boyd> Actually it was the "when GCC is the primary compiler" part [11:45:09] <richlowe> So the same iissue applicable to dwarf needs to be fixed also.

[17:05:45] <PerterB> makes sense [17:07:18] <gdamore> its been a really long time since I've seen anyone try a stack smashing/buffer overrun exploit on a SPARC system.
