Word Processing Equipment and airlines

Word Processing Equipment and airlines 05/26/2004 06:16 PM
British Air announces before each flight that "word processing equipment" must be switched off. It's hilarious, I keep picturing someone up there in Posh Bastard Class who's booked an extra couple seats for his Xerox Word Processor and a long-suffering "word-processing-specialist" to operate it. Also, why the hell does Air Canada forbid the use of in-flight "modems and printers" (and how do they reconcile the ban on modems with the fact that they provide hideously expensive in-flight phone service, with modem jacks?)

AbiWord - Free Word Processing Program

AbiWord Free Word Processing Program
http://www.abisource.com/

AbiWord is a free word processing program similar to Microsoft® Word. It is suitable for typing papers, letters, reports, memos, and so forth. AbiWord has been created by a worldwide group of volunteers and currently supports many languages and operating systems. AbiWord is GNU Free Software software, which means that you will always have the freedom to use it, make copies of it, and improve it. You are
encouraged to make use of these freedoms and share the program with your family and friends! Like most Open Source projects, AbiWord started as a cathedral, but has become more like a bazaar. AbiWord is part of a larger project known as AbiSource,
which was started by the SourceGear Corporation. The goal of the project was the development of a cross-platform, Open Source office suite beginning with AbiWord, the project's word processor. AbiWord is unique among word processors in its drive to become a fully cross-platform word processor. Our source code is carefully written so that AbiWord will run on virtually any operating system with a minimum of time spent on porting. This combined with our support for internationalization (the ability to run AbiWord in many languages) gives AbiWord a massive potential user-base. This has been added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Java Today reports on patent number 525484, granted to Microsoft in New Zealand, which relates to 'Word processing document stored in a single XML file that may be manipulated by applications that understand XML'. The New Zealand Open Source Society states this was actually filed on 24 April 2004, and has rather escaped people's attention.

TiVo wins Pause Technology patent suit

Good news for TiVo today as they won a patent suit against Pause Technology. Pause Technology has a patent on the functionality of pausing TV, buffering live TV, and catching up to live by fast-forwarding. It sounds pretty close to what TiVo does, but a judge sided against Pause. It'll be interesting to see how well TiVo does in its own patent suits against other DVR manufacturers. [thanks Scott!]

I really really really hate patents.  When it starts to effect what products do and what can get produced - it's time to stop this madness!

Eolas browser plug-in patent invalidated
by US Patent Office 03/08/2004 11:08 PM
The US Patent and Trademark Office has now stepped in and invalidated the Eolas patent. The decision, if it is upheld, will clear Microsoft of charges of wrong-doing.

Patent Office Agrees To Check Into All
That Prior Art On The Eolas Patent

Patent Office Agrees To Check Into All
That Prior Art On The Eolas Patent 11/12/2003 01:35 PM
The latest in the Eolas patent saga is that someone at the Patent Office has finally agreed to review the patent based on stacks and stacks of prior art that people have been finding. Amazingly, the Patent Office appears to have responded quickly (though, they don't say how long it will take for a new decision on the patent) to the requests for a re-examination of the patent. There's a quote from the USPTO's deputy commissioner for patent examination policy saying that this was an "extraordinary situation" which necessitated the quick response. The problem with this statement is that it's not an extraordinary situation. In fact, it's an increasingly common situation, where silly patents are getting the stamp of approval every day - and then used to hold other companies up for extortion, rather than for encouraging innovation.

Silly Patent Of The Day: Adobe Hit With
Lawsuit Over Hyperlink Patent

Silly Patent Of The Day: Adobe Hit With
Lawsuit Over Hyperlink Patent 07/08/2004 05:05 PM
I think it's about time we came up with a new topic/icon for stupid patents. There are just so many of them these days. The latest is that Adobe, who is no stranger to abusing intellectual property rules, is now being hit with a patent over their PDF technology. The patent is for a method of extracting network information via hyperlinks. Reading through the patent, they're basically describing a system for clicking on a hyperlinking and having the system not only download the page in question, but all locally related pages linked from that page as well. Perhaps a useful system, but it seems like this sort of technology was around well before the patent was granted, and it's unclear what it has to do with PDF files.
