Lovely!
Now if
they'd extend that concept so one could legally crack and put Linux on their
Sony PS3. Update the Laws of the DMCA along the lines
You may circumvent
the protection measure for legal purposes including normal fair use access of
Copyright Law or for the purposes of destroying the material (such as removing
the copyright protected software and using your own on the hardware).
Or
something like that.

In the
Library with the Lead Pipe
The second video Code4Lib 2008: Building the
Open
Library has this interesting bit at 11'00"
We also do
Subjects, so one of the big debates we had when we first started the project,
where a bunch of librarians came in and they all argued about which subject
system we
should use, you know. Use LCSH. or should we use Dewey Decimal, or
should we use this
modified version of LCSH, and eventually I had to stop them
and say, like, we'll use
all of them — it's online — we
don't have to have this argument.
[applause]
Of course he's right,
when it's online you can use all. But I have a
suspicion that some people
who've only done it their way would feel put down by that
approach.

PJ,
I'm never sure where to put this kind of stuff, under "Corrections" or
"News Picks. But I think you have made a misstatement in your comment to
the above News Pick
PJ writes-
"... if you prefer Ethernet to wired, plug in a USB ethernet adapter
..."
I believe you meant to say Wireless or Wi-Fi in place of Ethernet.
Ethernet is wired. Although wireless networking is sometimes called Wireless
Ethernet or WiFi, that is really a misnomer. However even if you accept Wireless
Ethernet as correct, Ethernet still includes wired connections.
