Hi ! > Happy new year and do not forget to download the magazine in the link > below: > > http://www.projetofedora.org/revista/RevistaFedoraBrasil004.pdf Thanks for the link, reading it right now :) However, something caught my attention: """ * Apple patenteia Dock depois de quase 10 anos Após nove anos, a Apple finalmente obteve o registro da patente da chamada Dock, a barra de atalhos e tarefas presente em seu sistema operacional, o Mac OS X. O registro foi pedido em 20 de dezembro de 1999. Segundo o site MacNN, a patente abrange posicionamento de ícones e cursores, além do efeito de ampliação obtido quando o mouse é passado sobre um ícone. (...) Isso pode revelar-se uma má notícia para softwares de terceiros inspirados na invenção, como os programas ObjectDock, RocketDock e Avant Windows Navigator. """ For those in here who don't understand portuguese, it means that Apple patented the Dock. Moreover, the patent covers « positioning of icons and cursors, as well as the zoom effect when the mouse moves over an icon » Is the legal team aware of this ? What's gonna happen about those dock-like apps in the Fedora repositories, given the Fedora policy on patented software ? Of course, this mailing-list might not be the best place to talk about it. Is there another communication medium for legal stuff ?

I believe AWN is not identical to the design of OSX dock, mouse-over effect icon layout and etc are all different in combination. Thus may not be in trouble by OSX Dock design patent issue. However, lets hear from what other may comments. -- Best Regards, Jason http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Jason_Benedict_Low VoIP = sip:jasonbened...@fedoraproject.org -- When i work nobody care.
