I'm not a native German speaker, just someone who is learning the language. In that sentence, 'Morgen' (morning) already implies will happen in the future, so the 'werden' (as 'will' in this case) is not needed. Without it, the sentence will be "Es wird bald regnen", or "I will rain soon".
(I have been studying only for 2 years, so take what I said with a grain of salt).

In fact you can even fix it yourself while waiting for a patch with systemtap: http://www.outflux.net/blog/archives/2012/01/22/fixing-vulnerabilities-with-systemtap/

I am not a doctor, but IMHO, most of the bacterias on the keyboard of your personal computer are _yours_ bacterias, meaning they came from your body, your sweat and you are used to it. So I don't think they will do much harm to yourself, unless your immune system is borked somehow. Of course, a dirty keyboard is still need to be cleaned, so it won't look too bad, or become a colony to bad germs.
And yeah, this only apply to your personal keyboard, mean no one else but you touch it. Or maybe keyboard sharing between family members, your body is more resistant to their germs.

NaCl is open source, but Mozilla has refused to include it in Firefox.
Also NaCl is quite different from ActiveX, if you have time to read the papers you will see that it is highly secure without hurting the performance much, as the code is analyzed before executing to make sure it won't do anything macilious.

There isn't many detail now, even their website is just an wiki page. Nevertheless, I hold high hope for this one, living in a 3rd world country, I have always interested in fighting illiteracy and connecting people with the power of the internet. Of course there are many projects like that, both by the government and other organisations, but they aren't very successful. One of the reason for their failure, IMO, is that normal desktop PC requires proper maintenance, especially in remote areas where the weather aren't very friendly with electronic devices. The fact that many projects re-use old PC doesn't help either. Most 'computer room' just sit there gathering dust after the local get bored with playing games, chatting and half of the computer dies. LTSP is another choice, but we still need someone to be there to fix in case problems arise, and there isn't many FOSS technician here.
So we need some kind of computer that is really cheap, require little maintenance (for both software and hardware), easy to deploy. Actually Intel promised us that kind with their Atom CPU, but AFAIK an Atom-based PC still in 200~250$ range, which is not cheap at all. And now this project seems promising.

As a laptop user, there are two problems prevent me from using a stand-alone WM instead of a full DE:
- Power management: To switch between profiles when the power is plugged in or not.
- Network connections: Wifi and broadband connections. iwconfig/ifconfig/wpa_supplicant can serve me, but too much of a hassle. And broadband connection is really a pain, the last time I tried to use wvdial, I can get a connection, but suffer random system hangs. After that I stick to GNOME2 till now.

Installing GNOME power manager/network manager pulls a whole mess of GNOME dependency in, it defeats the purpose of running a standalone WM.
Of course, if anyone can show me how to deal with those two, I would be appreciated. On my old laptop (which I use as a desktop, mostly), I put plain OpenBox on it and have no problem using it at all.

As for Alsa/another sound server replacing OSS, OSS do the mixing (and resampling?) in the kernel space, citing latency is one of the reasons, while alsa let userspace programs the jobs. IMO, that kind of works does not belong to kernel space, so I prefer alsa.

Regarding to pulseaudio, dmix is fine, but pulseaudio is better with features like glitch free playback (ironically, this is the reason why pulseaudio glitches so bad on some systems with broken drivers), you can set the resampling algo, per stream volume control, flat volume (another problematic feature), and as some people said, it is the only setup that allow output via bluetooth devices but I haven't tried it yet. The main reason for many problems related to it is the horrible audio drivers on Linux (as always), so you can't exactly blame pulseaudio, at least it always has fallback mode, and the distros never set them as default.
Back when pulseaudio was first integrated into Ubuntu (around 8.04, right?), it didn't work well for me and stop working for many other. But now, most people I know have absolutely no problem with pulseaudio.
PS: Aside from dmix, there are several other sound servers like arts, esd etc.... too, I'm glad that we get rid of all that and now pulseaudio on alsa is the standard.

Well, Truetype BCI is useful but today most computer screens are LCD it isn't enough anymore, we also need a good subpixel rendering method, the one included in Freetype isn't so bad but isn't as good as Cleartype either. And the Cleartype code in freetype had been removed, unlike the BCI, which is only disabled, so we who don't live in the US can't use it either. (there are still a way to patch freetype though). I wonder how long will we have to wait until we can have nice looking fonts on Linux desktop.

Nokia only intends to use Meego for N series, which is multimedia oriented, while the E series, aimed at business user (high end) still use Symbian.
