Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

Oracle vs Google: stay cool
So, today's big scoop is Oracle suing Google for a number of alleged patent infringements with Android. Doomsday announcements are spreading all over the world, as you might expect. So, are we going to die with loud screams?Follow my advice: stay cool and go on as usual. Keep yourself informed (and before anything else have a read at the Oracle Complaint that is attached to the URL I've linked above). Don't listen to the screaming crowd. Don't believe that Oracle really wants to shut down Android. The Complaint is not what Oracle wants to achieve, it's just the weapon to achieve something else. Let's track how the legal things go on, let's see how Google reacts and let's wait for some developments before deciding whether things are going to be worse or better for us (both things could happen). For sure with Ellison we won't get bored, even though I must say I don't have problems in finding interesting things in my life and I would have avoided this.
