Comment on Licensing Woes by Phil
[Comments for James Fee GIS Blog] ESRI blame that communications lapse on CHEST, who administer the educational licensing in the UK. They are working to provide us with the commercial licenses at the same cost we pay for the educational licenses, but while that will get around the current emergency, it still leaves us at their mercy if they change their mind.

We’re Hiring!

Comment on Open GIS a wasted effort? Inconceivable! by Simon
[Comments for James Fee GIS Blog] Now that we all agree (no one in 65 posts has managed to come up with any reasons for Linux other than intellectual property ownership transfer from AT&T to other parties), you can argue all day whether that transfer was reason enough to do Linux, whether it was a good idea or a bad idea, whether this was just another stupid civil war within the movement, whether the time spent on that could have been spent on other things that would have had a far greater benefit to the same community, whether the intellectual property transfer had any real effect, what the real costs were of that intellectual property transfer, whether we have ended up in a more open or less open situation, whether GNU’s or Red Hat’s or any other “open” player’s stewardship of the resultant intellectual property was better or worse than AT&T’s, whether the time spent on this effort was indeed a distraction that enabled Windows to get traction, whether the psychological and educational effects of generations of programmers working hard to copy old things helped foster innovation or stifled it, well….
