Tonight live: Fun and Games (with Loki's Tribes 2) and responses to MUNDIEMay 08, 2001, 19:09 (6 Talkback[s])[ Thanks to Jeff Gerhardt for this link. ] Tuesday, May 8th, 2001 At 6pm pt, 7pm mt, 8pm ct, and 9pm et.... Kevin Hill, Jeff Gerhardt, PJ Hyett, Doc Searls(Linux Journal), and Arne Flones have a groundbreaking show lined up tonight on The Linux Show!! Only TWO segments tonight because we have too much to cover. In Segment One - The Linux Community Gets "Mundieized":
and tonight we respond! We have purposely kept a low profile during the last week and let the chips fall. A great deal of writing has been done over the last few days to focus on the major issues developed by Microsoft's new attack on Open Source. Tonight we are opening the mike to let people respond in an open "uncensored" format. We will be joined tonight by some of the people in the Linux/Open Source community that have had some of the most profound responses to Mr. Mundie. Among those participating include: Eric Raymond, Tom Adelstein, Lyle Ball and (our own) Doc Searls. Check out Doc's take on the matter here: http://doc.weblogs.com/stories/storyReader$715) Tim Oreilly calls Doc's comments "the most cogent piece I've seen" on the matter. PLEASE NOTE: we have contacted Microsoft and have invited Craig Mundie to join us on the show. At the time of this posting we have not heard back from him. In Segments Two- LOKI and the future of Linux
Gaming
We will be discussing :
PLUS we will be having a LIVE Tribes 2 On-line game tournament running. The Tribes server will be up until midnight pacific time, and Kevin and Jeff will be playing music and running an IRC server for the participants. This is what we hope will be but the first fo these events that will allow Linux geeks to gather together for a little fun and R&R. Other opinions are welcome at GeekCast. If you would like to join us on the show, check our IRC Chat (irc.thelinuxshow.com #linuxshow). Pass a question or comment along. Remember tune in at 6pm pt, 7pm mt, 8pm ct, and 9pm et. |
