Here's some interesting thoughts on Adobe and Microsoft's attempts "at remaking the web in their own image": Silly Season... And on a completely unrelated note, the Gnu folks are at work on an up-to-date Free flash plug-in: Gnash, but of course, we're too busy giggling at youtube to care.

Fedora Project to Help Revitalize RPM 334

Posted by CowboyNeal on Friday December 15, 2006 @04:48AM from the breathing-life-back-in dept.

-=Moridin=- writes "The Fedora Project has announced plans to revitalize RPM, the package manager used by many Linux distros. According to the announcement, 'Job #1 is to take the current RPM codebase and clean it up, and in doing so work with all the other people and groups who rely on RPM to build a first-rate upstream project.' For more information, see the the RPM web site and the new wiki-based RPM FAQ. The issue of RPM's upstream development has been a thorny issue ever since Jeff Johnson, the original maintainer of RPM, left Red Hat."

My comment was mostly intended to be humorous. However, if you define sound as kinetic vibration, then there most certainly is sound in space. Everything out there can have internal vibrations. There is sound within the space station. The difference is that those acoustic vibrations just doesn't "move" from one thing to another through space. They are trapped within whatever generated them.
