Blackout
GNU-Darwin will blackout tomorrow, if the 7/17 fair-use
representatives, leafleteers, or demonstrators are ill-treated. We will
also commence to organize a world-wide boycott against the companies in
the DRM workshop.Please accept my apologies, if you got more than one copy of this
message.(see http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=889428&forum_id=6042)

Palladium consumer oppression scheme: Trust Microsoft?
Here is the round up on Microsoft's latest world domination plan.
ZDNet: [1]MS: Why we can't trust your 'trustworthy' OS
The Register: [2]MS to eradicate GPL
Washington Post: [3]Microsoft Wants Security Hard-Wired in Your
Computer
Slashdot: [4]MS Palladium patent
Read the [5]Palladium FAQMicrosoft's notions of "security" and "trust" are obviously
one-sided, and such a system would certainly be used to squash
fair use and first sale rights. Moreover, mono-culture is bad
policy for computer security; Damages will be widespread when the
system is inevitably compromised. The internet is our public
common, but in this scheme Microsoft would be the sole gatekeeper.
Free software can protect you from such outrages, because the
source code is anchored to the commons for all to see. Use free
software instead of Microsoft products.GNU-Darwin free software recommendations

GNU-Darwin: OpenSSH 3.4
We have the new OpenSSH update. Please note that this package is intended
to overwrite your Apple installed binaries, and it is not installed by
default by GNU-Darwin. openssh-portable-3.4p1 is now propogating to the
mirrors.
pkg_add -vfr openssh-portable
In order to take advantage of the crucial new priviledge separation
capability, this package creates an sshd user and a home directory for that
user. In addition, the ppc version installs a GNU-Darwin version OpenSSL
libcrypto.dylib in /usr/local/lib. Sources are in CVS,
ports/security/openssh-portable.
