"This is called "dual licensing". Since Oracle holds all the copyrights to the VirtualBox code, or is at least permitted to relicense code that is owned by external contributors or other parties, we are free to choose the terms under which we license the code to our customers, or the open-source community. "

So any code you submit, you also assign to Oracle so they can release it closed source. So not totally open.

OK. That is the intent. Now what the fuck does it do? Or better yet, what does it do differently than Owncloud?

Free, kinda. Open, a bit... But if you are a large company, not at all. And if you submit code, you assign it all to them.

So they want an open and decentralized social network. But the VM images are only in the Oracle owned Virtual Box format? And right now it is only built for new and hard to source appliances, not older desktop easily found in rubbish bins? And I still haven't found what it does that owncloud does not... You would think the web page or wikipedia would have a short "This is what the we do" page somewhere...

Look... If you catch someone with a stolen phone just check to see if it has any pirated content. That will get some real punishment!

They are just waiting for a blog to get a million hits, and they they are ON IT!

I too love Gnome Flashback. And it would not exist if a developer from Edubuntu had not come in to take it over...

Hold the left alt key and right click on the panel to add elements. This is a GTK3 default that can be changed.

So, yes some things moved. But the core functionality is the same, and that is what I needed.

Actually, my personal favorite is Mexico where the word for norther visitor and the word for diarrhea is the same. Turista. And I guess you are right, as those European's don't seem to be on the same planet most of the time...

Stacking things by application, regardless of workflow is a serious impediment to some workflow. This is fact, not fear. If a change makes a job take 10% longer, it is a BAD CHANGE. This is something they never grasped. And while it may not be much of an issue for a home user or hobbyist, for people that use Linux on the job, it is major.

Have you checked out Gnome Flashback? https://wiki.gnome.org/Project...

I wish I could. Gnome Flashback is Gnome 2 with the gtk3 under it. It is very good. But you can not only support it... https://wiki.gnome.org/Project...

Here you go. http://xfree86.sourceforge.net...

Actually, Gnome Flashback is very good. If I could donate to just it, I would!

Because accuracy also counts.
