Broadcast Treaty negotiations (day 2/3)


Broadcast Treaty negotiations (day 2/3) 06/08/2004 12:31 PM
We've just wrapped up the second day of Broadcast Treaty negotations at the UN in Geneva, and once again, two colleagues and I took really extensive notes on the proceeding. Brazil and India gave amazing testimony today, and I was able to address the UN on DRM -- it was screamingly cool. We did a lot more editorializing today -- it's still hard to follow, but damn this is important. If we lose here, it's a disaster for the Internet and the PC.
* Brazil

- Article 5: National Treatment. We favor alternative J, irrespective of whether we agree on some kind of redefinition of the term "national." We reserve the right to come back -- possible at a future meeting -- to the issue of the rights conferred to the beneficiaries under the treaty.

[ed: note Brazilian implication that this business shouldn't be concluded at this session]

- Concentrate on Article 16, Technical Protection Measures [ed: AKA DRM]. Brazil is concerned with proposed inclusion of TPMs in proposed new treaty. Aware that similar provisions are in WCT and WPPT, but it's important to recall that those treaties were negotiated and adopted when there was little awareness regarding potential implications of use of TPMs. Since then, some years have gone by, and there's a growing widespread awareness that use of such measures can be quite detrimental to rights of consumers and public at large. Significant concern that anticircumvention has significant negative for exercise of rights exceptions and limitations in national laws. Important obstacle to access of public to public domain materia.

Inconsistent with necessary free flow of info so important to encourage innovation and creativity in the digital environment. All of Art 16 counters stated objectives of new treaty as referred to in preamble. Para recognizes need to maintain balance between rights of broadcasters and larger public interest.

This entire article should believe this entire article should be deleted from the text. Other delegates argue that e fact that we have these provisions in WCT and WPPTY mean that we should include them in this treaty. We disagree. Not pertinent to rights of broadcasting organizations.

[ed. Brazil is very courageous. -dt]

[ed. See EFF's Unintended Consequences report for some of the specific harms from adopting anticircumvention to which Brazil alludes. Brazil recognizes that previous treaties offer opportunity to learn from mistakes, not just blindly follow existing language. -ws]

[ed This is the best statement I've ever heard at a WIPO session. -cd]

Chairman: Access to information is near to my heart as well. This is not intended to cover DRM that locks up public domain material. If an industry or entity does this, then TPM protection shouldn't be available and circumvention should be lawful.

[ed. Since broadcasting isn't copyright, though, there's a wide range of new material locked up by new rights for broadcasters. Otherwise, there's no need for a treaty at all, since copyright and licensing of copyrights can cover the field. -ws]

[ed. It's a nice theory, but the DMCA enthusiastically covers the uncopyrightable, the public domain, and things that really shouldn't be thought of as copyright, like the way that garage door owners work or the secret of refilling a printer cart -cd]

Eclipse 3.0 RC2


Eclipse 3.0 RC2 06/12/2004 08:35 PM

I had been using Eclipse 3.0 RC1 for the past week but it was sluggish and I ran into a few hangups, so when I saw that Eclipse 3.0 RC2 was available, I got right on it.  Definitely better.  Startup is faster and shutdown takes only a second.  Nice.  I think I'll stick with this one until the final release is out which is due end of this month.  Eclipse bug count looks healthy although Platform UI and SWT team seems to be struggling a bit.

Downloading Eclipse took forever btw.  They have mirrors but mirrors are troublesome to use because it forces the user to find the package among the mirrors to download.  They should use BitTorrent IMHO and turn the mirrors into seeds.  BitTorrent needs to be more location-aware (actually route-aware) though.

Eclipse 3.0


Eclipse 3.0 06/21/2004 03:37 PM

OK - so get ready for this.

IBM now has it's own Java client side GUI technology - called SWT. There's a battle going on over two different approaches to Java client sides GUIs (between IBM and Sun/BEA) and IBM is using Eclipse for getting their's adopted. Now Oracle is getting involved. :-)

Even better - is all the other tsuff that come along with Eclipse - basically creating a client-side 'middleware' layer.

I've already met one major social networking play that's planning on building their free, open P2P system with SWT. Watch for even sexier deep linking new standards for all this stuff.

Thank you to IBM for sticking to their guns. The customer is always right. It's one thing IBM understands.

A Look at the Eclipse IDE 11/16/2003 10:43 PM
Eclipse is an open source integrated development environment. It is primarily developed by OTI (Object Technology International Inc.), an IBM company. OTI, founded by Dave Thomas, is a famous name in this industry. OTI is something like the Pixar of the object-oriented world: a legendary company still at the forefront of the technology and releasing hit after hit. No wonder that some at IBM consider the OTI acquisition to be the best technology acquisition ever made by IBM.

More on Eclipse RCP


More on Eclipse RCP 07/11/2004 06:25 PM

I had problem building a working RCP application, so I put together the RCP Text Editor Example to see how to configure a RCP app.  If you want to build it yourself, instructions from the main RCP page at Eclipse site is below.  The page is actually a view into CVS, so I expect/hope the real main page will appear in the near future.

  1. Download the RCP Runtime build from the Downloads page, and extract it to a folder such as c:\texteditor-example.
  2. Download the RCP text editing component zip and extract it to the eclipse/plugins subfolder.
  3. Download the texteditor plugin zip and extract it to the eclipse/plugins subfolder.
  4. Replace the eclipse/configuration/config.ini file with the appropriate config file from the texteditor plugin. For example, on Windows, copy config_win32.ini file from org.eclipse.ui.examples.rcp.texteditor_1.0.0 plugin to eclipse/configuration and rename it to config.ini.
  5. Run the eclipse executable: For example, on Windows, run eclipse.exe.

Step #4 is the key step while the rest are just downloading and expanding files.  After step #5, you should see a barebone text editor.  On Win32, the RCP text editor has disk footprint of 6MB and memory footprint of 28MB.  In comparison, NotePad2 has disk footprint of 540K and memory footprint of 4MB.  SWT apps I built before had substantially smaller footprints than the RCP app, but still significantly larger than native apps.

So what do we get for roughly ten times the footprints?  Plugins!  You can put together a fancy standalone IDE for Perl, Python, or PHP by packaging plugins from the EPIC, PyDev, or PHPEclipse projects with RCP.  You'll need to pour some sweats to glue things together because those projects are probably not fully RCP ready yet.

If you are not building an IDE, don't need IDE like level of extensibility, or there aren't many plugins useful to your product, you are probably better off skipping RCP and building on top of just SWT instead.


Addicted to Eclipse


Addicted to Eclipse 12/28/2004 09:12 AM

As much as I hate to admit it, I'm addicted to Eclipse. I'm hooked on the auto-import and auto-fix stuff that automatically imports the classes I need, adds missing methods needed to implement interfaces, and declares missing variables, fields, and even classes. And I'm hooked on the CVS client that gives me a clear view of every single file I have modified in my workspace, every incoming change, and makes it easy to override-and-commit or override-and-update. Netbeans 4.0 has come a long, long way from the old 3.X series and Creator is just awesome for JSF, but 4.0 is still not good enough to pull me away from Eclipse. There, I said it.

Unfortunately, Eclipse for Solaris/X86 is linked to Motif which makes it nearly unusable so I end up using Netbeans for most of they day, only switching to Eclipse when I need to synchronize with CVS. I actually blew a Saturday afternoon trying to get Eclipse 3.1 to build on Solaris/X86 linked to GTK. I failed, but only because I ran out of time.
