Special BoingBoing report: Live from
SpaceShip One

Special BoingBoing report: Live from
SpaceShip One 06/17/2004 09:49 AM
Paul G. Allen and Burt Rutan's SpaceShip One is scheduled to launch America's first Non-Government, privately funded manned space flight next Monday. Alan Radecki, part of the ground crew stationed at Mojave, is penning pre-flight updates and countdown info. Former BoingBoing guestblogger Todd Lappin has arranged for those first-person accounts to be blogged here.

Background: Link to Mojave airport site with launch info. Link to Rutan's press release on the June 21 launch. Link to Rutan's FAQ. And finally, Alan's first update follows:

Starting today, I plan on sending out a daily update on the activities surrounding the SpaceShipOne launch.

The flight is scheduled to commence at 0630 Monday 6/21, however that is dependent on weather. Should there be a weather delay, such as winds, the folks at Scaled plan on waiting and launching as soon as the weather permits, even if it stretches to the next day.

The public will enter the airport from the main Airport Blvd entrance off of Hwy 58. The airport will open at 3am, but it is pretty much assumed around here that there will be so many people showing up that the roads will be clogged. RVs will be permitted in the day before, with reservations (661/824-2433). I know that there's already 89 coming, some of whom are NASA folks who are bringing a band and everything. Regular vehicles will be charged $10 entrance fee (to help mitigate the huge cost of security that the airport has to bear), and I can't remember the RV cost...check mojaveairport.com for details. Don't try to avoid the traffic by coming in the back entrances...these are for VIPs with passes and tenants with ID badges.

There will be a TFR, and only aircraft with PPR numbers will be permitted into the airspace, starting on Saturday, I believe. Again, see mojaveairport.com for details. If you don't make it onto the airport, you'll still see the firing...it'll be visible for miles. (...) I'll be here starting Sunday afternoon, sleeping in the Mercy quarters. -- Alan

(Thanks, Todd Lappin!)

http://www.private-grid.nl/

Use a 10-node, 24Ghz machine for your own projects for free! With the advent of broadband, GPRS, UMTS, the world is becoming a more and more connected place. Ubiquitous computing is slowly permeating into normal day-to-day life. People are getting used to 'always being connected', and share the resources they have, sometimes with friends or acquintances, but mostly with total strangers, often living great distances away. Most of the time, the resources being shared are limited to audio- and/or video streams, webcams and filesharing with P2P software. What with home- and office systems becoming more and more powerful, high-performance computing for the masses is becoming a reality. The SETI@Home statistics prove that the Internet can be used as a large supercomputer. The idea of the private grid initiative is that people start using the very respectable, often unused, computing resources they have at their disposal for new and different projects they have not thought of before. This site is provided as a service, so academics and technical people can meet people who have ideas about what they could or would do if they could unlock the resources they have. On the other hand, it might help the sciences if they get feedback from people that are not yet locked into a certain way of thinking.This has been added to Grid Resources Subject Tracer Information Blog.

International Private Law

International Private Law 07/16/2004 06:37 AM
One of the larger and more interesting questions arising in connection with Creative Commons's global expansion is the question of whether the various iCommons licences are internationally compatible. The question arises because porting / transposing the CC licenses into diffferent jurisdictions involves a process of both translation and legal adapation. The latter is made necessary by the specific requirements of the respective national legal orders, e.g. with regard to language used or with regard to the particular limitations created by droit d'auteur copyright regimes. In this context, how can we best make sure the international versions of the CC licenses are compatible with each other? Part of our discussion at the Wissenschaftskolleg conference, held on 17 June in Berlin, focussed precisely on this question. Here you'll find a talk given by Dr A. Metzger for more thoughts on this.

Private Syndication

Private Syndication 02/01/2005 09:44 PM
Over at the ZD BTL space, David Berlind writes good stuff on something I’ve been talking about for a long time, private syndication feeds. My favorite examples have been feeds from my bank account or credit card or stock portfolio, but David has another for people like EBay, who can no longer email their customers because everyone receiving such an email assumes it’s a phishing attempt (it usually is). David wonders if existing RSS-based systems can scale up for mass one-to-one usage; the answer is “yes, obviously”; post-and-poll (as in syndication) is mechanically simpler than store-and-forward (as in email), it’ll scale just fine. One detail: I think that for this kind of content-critical, all-business feed, Atom is a more attractive choice than any of the RSS flavors.

FCC Proposes "Private Commons"

FCC Proposes "Private Commons" 09/03/2004 05:49 PM
The FCC is suggesting that spectrum licensees be allowed to let others use their spectrum in a similar fashion to the unlicensed bands: The only types of devices that would be allowed to operate in the "private commons" would be peer-to-peer devices in a non-hierarchical network that doesn't use the network of the licensee. According to Kevin Warbach, a one-time counsel to the FCC and now an assistant professor at The Wharton School, some experts say that if open spectrum is truly beneficial, then licensees will create it. It seems there are a lot of doubters that licensees would actually open their spectrum for this kind of use, but perhaps a few innovative spectrum owners would give it a try and find success. The FCC envisions that some current users of unlicensed spectrum would benefit by negotiating with spectrum owners to use their spectrum as a way to offer a service that is less crowded and thus potentially more valuable than services that operate in the unlicensed bands. It's the FCC's plan for avoiding the "tragedy of the commons," where the shared item becomes so overused that it loses its value....
