YAPC::Israel::2005 registration
Hi all, This is just a small reminder that the last day for the reduced Early Bird registration fee for YAPC::Israel::2005 is quickly approaching - Jan. 13th, 2005 - don't say we didn't warn you! :-) *New, New, New* You can now pay by credit card online! Just go to: http://www.litrom.com/YAPC (You can of course still pay by check or cash directly to Gabor) Remember, the early registration fee is 90NIS, but goes up to 150NIS after Jan. 13th, so hurry up and pay now!

Any host wishing to do anything at all on my network, including browsing the internet, will need to have openvpn installed and configured. Once that's the case, there is no extra benefit from using WEP. The zeroth line of defense is not getting attacked. WEP is indeed ludicrously weak, and does not form a significant *technical* hurdle for an attacker. However, since you can't be sure that your VPN setup is flawless, why attract unnecessary attention? The casual guy-with-a-laptop just looking for some open network in the neighborhood will try the non-WEP networks first. If yours is one but fails to "work", he might "fix" it with an OpenVPN exploit or by taking advantage of your configuration typo. If you did use WEP, your unencrypted neighbor would be a more attractive target; and even if your OpenVPN setup is in fact perfect, you'd have saved yourself a bunch of security log events to mull about. That said, some people assume in good faith that a non-WEP network is intentionally shared with the public (which is often true; how can you tell?). It's a shame to unnecessarily waste their time.

But whether an unencrypted wireless network constitutes an "invitation", looks rather unclear, legally; are there any precedents? Of course, the above is moot in Shachar's case since he was going to use OpenVPN encryption and access controls regardless of WEP.

If you just mean indenting it one position to the right, you should mark it (with the mouse) then hit ">". If you want to indent one position to the left, use "<". If you wish it to perform a full pretty-printing, that is, to indent each line in the block as it should be indented - if there are loops in the block indent them more etc. - then use "=" instead.

Hi Kfir, 3 options: 1) there is a theme for GTK which uses KDE functions to draw the widgets. It's calle gtk-qt-engine on some machines. 2) insall themes. http://www.kde-look.org is your friend. 3) Wait. There is a port of mozilla to Qt, when it's finished you will get the look and feel of a Qt application.

large hebrew fonts needed
Hi, I am using a lot of graphics, and therefore, I set my X term at the hiibhest resolution afforded by my hardware. As a result, unless I use a large font, the text in xterm is very small. In English, am pretty happy with fn 12x24 (-sony-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-170-100-100-c-120-iso8859-1) despite the near-identity between the letter l and the numeral 1. But I did not find anything of comparable size in Hebrew. I have the fixed and the Culmus fonts. Now, before I download and try every other font, I would like to know, from others' experience if there is anything to try. For the moment I am using the 10x20hu (-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-8). in a "normal" (not Unicode) xterm. While I am at it: With most Culmus fonts (the only exception I can think of is Miriam mono), the spacing between the letters is unusually large. Anyone knows why ?

Oh, the "2^31 seconds are enough time for everybody",
brought to you by one or more careless UNIX designers
who might be lucky enough to be alive and 100+ years
old when this bug actually manifests.
In GNU/Linux, time_t is typedef'ed from __time_t, that
is typedef'ed from __TIME_T, that in turn typedef'ed
from __SLONGWORD_TYPE, that is defined from 'long int'.
Even today 64 bit architectures define 'long int' as
64 bit on some cases. Hopefully most 32-bit architectures
will perish until 2038. Nowadays, AMD64 slowly becomes
commodoty hardware, so I'm optimistic.
