Force Companies To Give Free Tech
Support For Life

Force Companies To Give Free Tech
Support For Life 12/22/2003 12:42 PM
Last week we talked about one idea to improve computer security issues: threa ten to put executives of software companies in jail if their products are not secure. That seemed a bit extreme. This week, however, the Washington Post's Rob Pegoraro has another interesting idea to improve technology product quality: require companies to provide free tech support for life. This way, he argues, the companies will quickly learn about problems, and it will be in their own best interest to get working fixes out there as quickly as possible. It will also give them incentive to do things better the first time around. He argues this is beneficial to the companies as well, as with better products, people will be more willing to spend money on them. I would add one adjustment to this suggestion: make an exception for companies or individuals who give away software for free. This would make it so anyone shopping for software can get a real benefit for paying for a product, and also doesn't unfairly burden those who prefer to just give away software.

Free software and Open Source: The freedom Debate and Its Consequences By Mathias Klang
ht tp://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue10_3/klang/index.html

Abstract:
To most outsiders the ethics of software is not something usually considered. To most proficient computer users with a passing interest in this question the ethics of software is recognised as one of the fundamental questions in the digital rights area. To most of the latter, terms such as free software, open source, and their derivatives (FLOSS, FOSS, Software Freedom) are interchangeable. Choosing one over the other is a matter of taste rather than politics. However, to most insiders the
question is not one of taste. There is a fundamental difference between the two areas even if they share a similar root. Free software is not the same as open source. The two groups differ in their fundamental philosophical approach to software and its importance to society as a whole. This paper examines the two groups’ differing philosophies and explores how their actions have affected software development, access to fundamental software infrastructure, and the development of the concept of freedom.

Making Open Webmail work

Making Open Webmail work 01/06/2004 03:18 AM
Recently I was asked to provide Internet e-mail to a large segment of our hospital community. The mail had to be standards-based to provide the widest compatibility base possible for the 3,000 people who might have need of it. It had to be Web-based, but not overly complicated, and it had to employ open source (read "free") tools to help keep the budget down. Finally, it had to be secure, to comply with HIPAA regulations. To meet those requirements, I deployed Open Webmail, Sendmail, and Red Hat Linux 9 on a 1U IBM Linux machine.

1GB of webmail from Google

1GB of webmail from Google 04/09/2004 04:08 PM

Provided this story about a new 1 GB webmail service from Google isn't a lame early April fool, I'm really psyched about it. A decent amount of space combined with Google's search technology could really help me keep up to date with my email. Just off the top of my head, here's my ideal hosted webmail feature list:

• Costs between two and ten dollars a month. This is a critical service I'm entrusting to a company - I want the reassurance that there's cold hard cash on the line if they screw anything up. Paying for a no-ads option is fine too.
• Smart filtering. I'm on a bunch of different mailing lists and can't live without filters.
• "Virtual folders" - things like "all emails from this person", "emails sent to this person" should be on hand at all times.
• Import and export mail as mbox files. Don't lock me in!
• Decent spam filtering, obviously.
• Send plain text, receieve plain text. No HTML in either direction.
• Kick-arse search.

I don't really have very complex needs, which is why I'm so frustrated that so far nothing I've tried has done what I need it to. Here's hoping Google can hit the mark.

Update: The Google press release is dated April 1st. Given their history, it's almost certainly a hoax. Aah well, we can dream.
