Read about Open source at WorldVillage Encyclopedia. Research Open source and learn about Open source here!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) Open Source Definition (OSD) presents an open-source philosophy, and further defines a boundary on open source software on how it is to be used, modified or redistributed. Critics of 'open source' said that it fosters an ambiguity of a different kind such that it confuses the mere availability of the source with the freedom to use, modify, and redistribute it. Openness is a term that has evolved now to refer to projects that are open to anyone and everyone to contribute to, before and/or after the actual programming. encyclopedia.worldvillage.com /s/b/Open_source   (3823 words)

Open Discectomy Open discectomy uses surgery to remove part of the damaged disc and thus relieve the pressure on the nerve tissue and alleviate the pain. Open discectomy is usually performed under general anesthesia (the patient is unconscious) and typically requires a one-day hospital stay. Possible complications from open discectomy include bleeding, infection, spinal fluid leak, injury to the veins and arteries near the spine, or injury to the nerve tissue of the spine or its surrounding protective layer (the dura mater). www.spine.org /articles/discectomy.cfm   (1273 words)

Open carpal tunnel surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome During open carpal tunnel release surgery, the transverse carpal ligament is cut, which releases pressure on the median nerve and relieves the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Open carpal tunnel release surgery is usually done under local anesthetic as an outpatient same-day surgery. Open carpal tunnel surgery cuts open the base of the palm and requires a longer recovery period when compared to endoscopic surgery. www.webmd.com /hw/arthritis/hw212359.asp   (642 words)

| Open Source | ZDNet.com Open source is not a political issue, but it sometimes plays one on TV. Battered by a growing open source threat (mySQL, Ingres) on the one hand and an emboldened Oracle (buying PeopleSoft and Seibel) on the other, executives like Shai Agassi (right), president of the company's product and technology group, are in the position of the lawyer who has neither the facts nor the law on his side. As with many corporations, open source in this case is just a cute name for doing what should have been done already, making use of what people are actually telling you before trying to ferret out what they may be thinking. blogs.zdnet.com /open-source   (4770 words)

Adam Bosworth's Weblog: Open Source Microsoft has long had a history of promising to "open source" things, then to turn around at the last minute and place one or more restrictive licenses upon the projects that sorely limited what could be done with this "open source" code. You have to realize that significant part of the current open source is "donated" by companies that were killed by it - just due to the people rather giving it away for free and donating their time then to see it die. Open source claims that it let it happen by itself - but it is simply not true. www.adambosworth.net /archives/000039.html   (1563 words)

Open WebMail Open WebMail is a webmail system based on the Neomail version 1.14 from Ernie Miller. Open WebMail is currently available for more than 30 languages, and it is quite easy to add new language to Open WebMail if yours is still not supported. Open WebMail also supports locking by dotlock file to ensure that the file locking operates correctly on platforms operating with an incomplete implementation of NFS lockd. openwebmail.org /openwebmail   (3655 words)

Javalobby News - 2004/11/16 Since before JavaOne I’ve both asked and heard the question, “What can be done with an Open Source Java that cannot be done today?” Now, it seems that this question has been publicly asked, as Onno Kluyt, chairman of Sun’s JCP has just done in a recent article at MacWorld UK. Open Office cannot really have Java as a core component because we don't have an open source implementation. Go to open source events and tell everybody: you can do more today with the Classpath implementation (even though it’s incomplete) than you can do with many of the traditional open source languages. www.javalobby.org /nl/archive/jlnews_20041116o.html   (2835 words)

"Reboot!" by Nicholas Thompson But two extraordinary changes are making open source substantially more plausible as a development and research model for 2000 than it was for 1990--and they'll make it even more so for 2010. This is why open source has come first and most prominently to computer programming: a profession where almost all of the development is intellectual, not physical, and where people have been connected over the Internet for more than 20 years. Open source has created the fastest growing operating system in the world and it's done so by capitalizing on changes in technology that will almost certainly seem commonplace in a decade or two. www.washingtonmonthly.com /features/2000/0003.thompson.html   (4295 words)

Open Source's Ego Problem   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) It has been a pleasure to see open source becoming more accepted, even though it tends to be the people who are deeply interested in computers who try out Linux, BSD, etc. Unfortunately, I have also noticed that there is a rather large problem in the open source community. However, if we ever want open source to succeed among the common people, this is something we're all going to have to work at stopping. Some open source programmers are so lame that they actively attempt to ape the style of corporations, putting out press releases full of corporate jargon as if this is going to impress someone. www.advogato.org /article/534.html   (6087 words)

What has IBM done lately for open source? Open Solaris will be run as a true open source project. Open source publishing tools, long derided as not being ready for battle, are proving themselves in the trenches of small publishing. Since the early days of the open source movement, many new programs have been developed as open source projects or have been released into the open source community by software vendors, and still more are in the works. www.stargeek.com /item/187640.html   (4537 words)

O'Reilly Open Source Convention 2004 While open source collaboration is a known phenomenon in software, there are some surprising non-commercial projects in other areas that are yielding great results. You've probably heard of Project Gutenberg putting books online for free, and you know that a lot of science is done in an open fashion - and now open collaborative projects are solving crimes, mapping Mars, and responding to challenges in many other industries. Join Wired Magazine's articles editor Thomas Goetz for a quick tour of some of open source's cousin projects, and a look at how the open source model might continue to catch on. conferences.oreillynet.com /cs/os2004/view/e_sess/5531   (100 words)

slapjack   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) I opened my bag to see if there was some paperwork that would help out and I saw the PSP sitting there on the bottom. I grabbed it, flipped on the wi-fi, found an open network in the hospital, pulled up the web browser, surfed to my insurance company’s website, logged in securely, accessed my plan records, found the co-pay amount and flipped the screen around to the receptionist. Once that genie is out of the bottle, the game (no pun intended) will change again and all of the interestingness that Web 2.0 is bringing us will double in value when it can be found and used anywhere, anytime. adam.slapjack.com /blog/category/getting-things-done   (1536 words)

If I hit those keys a few more times, Task manager will finally open, and when it does, so will everything I tried to open before. They will always open when task manager opens, but sometimes task manager won't open so it is still a big pain. I just realized that when it gets really bad even open programs will hang, but for the most part it is only when opening programs, and task manager always causes everything to start working. www.annoyances.org /exec/forum/winxp/1078117895   (508 words)

» Can an open source project get acquired? One just did | Between the Lines | ZDNet.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) To acquire an open source project, the acquirer must be absolutely certain that they are acquiring the copyrights to all of the code being used in the project. The other would be the commercial derivative that was some percentage open source (by virtue of the "grandfathered" code base), and some percentage closed source. This is exactly what Paul Doscher and his new startup JasperSoft have done with the open source project JasperReports. blogs.zdnet.com /BTL?p=1306   (1028 words)

MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Shoulder arthroscopy Most surgeons take pictures of the procedure from the video monitor to show the patient what was found and what was done.
