I use the "Freshmeat" Slashbox on my home page, and it has not updated in over a week. Is the Freshmeat Feed down?

Thank you

In regards to ink jet printer companies using DMCA and patent infringement lawsuits to prevent third party refilled or replacement printer cartridges. What is the likelihood of developing a reasonably priced Open Source Printer? My idea at the moment is to have a fully functional design with firmware (if needed) and driver ready to go. Then some manufacturers can take the design and produce it and sell it, the printer should use existing third party ink cartridges.

Comments?

Thanx

Julian"
