Apache License

{{Infobox software license | name = Apache License | image = | caption = The Apache logo | author = Apache Software Foundation | version = 2.0 | copyright = Apache Software Foundation | date = January 2004 | OSI approved = Yes | Debian approved = Yes | Free Software = Yes | GPL compatible = Yes - GPLv3 In a blog post from May 2008 Google mentioned that 25% of the 100,000 projects then hosted on Google Code were using the Apache License.

Version history

The Apache License 1.0 was the original Apache License which applies only to older versions of Apache packages (such as version 1.2 of the Web server).

The Apache License 1.1 was approved by the ASF in 2000: The primary change from the 1.0 license is in the 'advertising clause' (section 3 of the 1.0 license); derived products are no longer required to include attribution in their advertising materials, but only in their documentation.

The ASF adopted the Apache License 2.0 in January 2004. The stated goals of the license included making the license easier for non-ASF projects to use, improving compatibility with GPL-based software, allowing the license to be included by reference instead of listed in every file, clarifying the license on contributions, and requiring a patent license on contributions that necessarily infringe a contributor's own patents.

However, the Free Software Foundation considers all versions of the Apache License (as of 2007) to be incompatible with the previous GPL versions 1 and 2.

It should be noted, however, that there is a one-way incompatibility between the Apache version 2 and GPL version 3 licenses, in that GPL version 3 code cannot be included in an Apache project without activating the requirement that the entire project be relicensed under the GPL version 3.

Kristian Wagaan presents at the 2009 OpenSQLCamp Europe, in conjunction with FrOSCon 2009. From the official conference description at: programm.froscon.org Getting acquainted with Apache Derby Apache Derby is a transactional, relational database written in Java. This feature packed database is small enough to be run in many constrained environments, yet powerful enough to efficiently utilize the power of modern multi-CPU machines. Distributed under the Apache License (v2.0), you are free to bundle Derby as part of your application. This presentation will give a brief overview of Apache Derby, its history and the community around it. Further, it will go into the details of features that have been added in the latest releases and show how they enable powerful ways to use a relation database. Topics that will be covered: * Origin, history and community * Derby modes (embedded, client/server, combined) * Overview of features and capabilities * Making legacy data available to Derby * New features PDF slides are at programm.froscon.org Apache Derby website - db.apache.org Java DB website - developers.sun.com

How to use the Gauss-Jordan method and Excel's built-in linear equation solver to solve systems of equations with two or more unknowns. Of course, since we only use free software around here, we don't have Excel, but OpenOffice can do the same thing in pretty much the same way and they have granted us permission to use their software visuals in our videos provided that we credit openoffice.org with a link in the video description. First, some preparation is necessary. I have set up a spreadsheet with three boxes to hold the unknowns, X., Y., and Z. and a space to hold the matrix of coefficients, A., B., and C. There is a column called "sum" to hold the values on the right side of the equation.

Video was too long so I tried compressing the audio with mp3 which sounded ok until youtube re-converted it into whatever format they're using and it generated hiccups. Next time I'll use ac3 I've been fixing computers in people's homes and businesses since 1986. In 2003, I started supporting Linux. I'm pretty good with computers in general but I never claimed to be great at video editing. I only wanted to show that it's possible to do some basic video editing on Linux, not to impress anyone with my amazing skills. Linux has a wide variety of software available. Most of it is free, but Linux itself is more than just free. Linux = freedom. If you have any doubts, read the GPL and then compare it with the EULA for your existing OS. Software licensing is difficult to get your mind around at first, but if you want to live your life guilt-free, you may derive some benefit from being able to use or contribute to free software, rather than stealing, I mean file sharing, using warez, and running shareware beyond its expiration date while you save up money to buy that paid software you've always wanted.

Compiling Windows Programs on Linux

Fedora includes the mingw compiler, so we can port our programs to Windows (to share with our Windows friends) and we can test them on Linux using wine, so we don't actually have to boot Windows ourselves. By putting the commands into the Makefile we can remember them later. This Makefile is a bit over-hacked. In particular, I don't recommend the $(shell basename `pwd`) for anything other than personal or hobby templates. We're not trying to pass this off as professional code or anything like that... No warranty! Just showing that anything can go into a Makefile! The bash command line lets us make an alias for commands that we type often. We can put the alias into .bashrc and use them every time we log on. Fedora's package management commands are difficult for me to remember, so I have made aliases for them. In this video, I use an alias, rf, that is basically a command for Fedora to view the contents of packages: alias rf='rpm -q --filesbypkg --nodigest --nosignature' My other alias, qq is a .bashrc function: qq() { grep -i "$@" /var/log/rpmpkgs | sed "s/\.rpm//" ; } This just quickly lists all the rpms we installed prior to last night matching the name. It doesn't work on rpms that we recently installed because the database updates at night. To see recently installed packages, I use another, slower command, rq, which is also an alias: alias rq='rpm -qa --nodigest --nosignature | grep -i' This video contains parts or visuals of free software programs.

Just figured I'd share what I came up with as well as share some stonecold tuneage from the late, great Doug Sahm "Dallas Alice". The cost of these plates are REALLY HIGH so as for now, I'm only dreaming. Maybe I can hit the lottery...or... I could become a sponsor for myplates.com...

www.texturemind.com TypingRobot is an artificial intelligence studied to increase your points record with the Typing Maniac game on Facebook. It can recognize several labels because it uses a powerfull OCR system (tesseract) and some principle of word correction. With this program you can make millions of points without problems (my personal record is about 2.700.000 points). How to use it? It's very easy. Just launch the application, then you see a window (there is a "TypingRobot V1.0" label on the top) with an empty screen. At this point, you may run your game on Facebook and overlap the TypingRobots window to perfectly match the screen of the game (its important). Moreover there is a preview window that show you the text recognized by the program. You can write automatically the recognized text pressing SHIFT or CONTROL or 0(numpad). Press the autoplay only when necessary, do not overflow the game pressing the key continually. System Requirements: This software can run only on Windows platforms. It works at best with a 32 bit desktop, 24 bit desktop its not supported. A good CPU is needed, recommended dual-core cpu or higher. Windows XP/Vista. You can buy it at this address: www.texturemind.com It is not a script, a project to compile, it is a pure windows *.exe with installer, just click the icon and it executes. I do not take any responsibility in how you will use this program. The Apache License 2.0 for Tesseract is included with the installer.
