[opensuse-project] freetype2, subpixel hinting, software patents, host it in Europe
by Pascal Bleser 09 Apr '07

09 Apr '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just to make sure I'm not missing something... As pointed out by James Ots [1], subpixel hinting is disabled in the SUSE freetype2 packages because it might infringe software patents owned by Microsoft (see [2] for details). As software patents are not applicable nor enforceable in Europe, I could build them with enabled subpixel hinting and host them in my repository (hosted in Germany)... right ?

Hello, I think that openSUSE is a distributions for individual users, who want freedom of choice, a rich software repository and the possibility to actually feel free of doing what they want with their PC, even if they're not experienced users. So, I thought to: * openSUSE - Open up yourself * openSUSE - Choose to be free! I also like: * openSUSE - Linux for open minds See you, Alberto --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] download.openSUSE.org mirrors
by Christoph Thiel 02 Apr '07

Hi everyone, the attached mail just went out to our mirror admins. In case you are mirroring ftp.openSUSE.org and didn't get this email, contact me off-list. Thanks, Christoph ----- Forwarded message from Christoph Thiel <cthiel(a)suse.de> ----- Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2007 11:41:46 +0200 From: Christoph Thiel <cthiel(a)suse.de> Subject: [suse-mirror] download.openSUSE.org mirrors Dear mirror-admins, as you might know, we have been promoting download.openSUSE.org as our central "download redirector" for openSUSE.org. Over the last year or so, the infrastrcuture behind download.openSUSE.org has been improved significantly. With the current setup we are now able to handle hunders of mirrors from all over the world. If you are interested in a more detailed description of the download redirector and the logic behind it, refer to http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Redirector I'm contacting you today, to help me review the list of mirrors, which are currently being used by download.openSUSE.org. Please have a look at the attached mirrors.txt [1], to figure out if your mirror is listed. In case you are mirroring ftp.openSUSE.org and can't find your mirror in mirrors.txt, contact me off-list, so I can add you to the database! Here are some addition thoughts: - Please consider offering the mirrored files through HTTP, in case you aren't doing so already. (We only redirect to HTTP mirrors!) - If large file support (>2G) doesn't work on your HTTP server, please let us know - Keep the directory structure intact, so it is identical to the structure found below ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/. Otherwise we can't redirect to it. Thanks, Christoph [1] In case you are wondering what scan_speed stands for: It's the number of files the scanner (our crawler) was able to scan per second. -- Christoph Thiel, Tech.
