Comments will need approval from now

As this blog is now hammered by spam spam spam, I decided to disable the publication of comments without approval. Even with Mollon, this is becoming a nightmare !

Sorry for the annoyance, but there is no alternative currently.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sooner is better….

Since always, I believe that the best way of educating people to use and think opensource, this should happen early at school.

M$ knows that and since long time now they provide computers for schools, adult users of tomorrow are the children of today.

M$ now starts even earlier, look at this !

Bah... I've already a bunch of books with penguins for my daughter ;-)

New blog

Hello as you can see, I'm moving my old websites, I'm "consolidating" my old plain html and my blog in dotclear to drupal.

But I don't have a lot of time, the migration would take some time...

Clamav rocks

Being a defender of clamav since the beginning, I am very glad to see that this free antivirus defies most commercial antivirus and beat the majority of them !

According to this study, one can thus see that clamav detected the more viruses than many others: the study's result

I always advice Windows users to use the windows version of that engine on their very vulnerable "operating system" : clamwin

I use clamav in the majority of mailrelays and fileservers I install.

Thus go! the clamav team continue like that!

This news was also reported on DLFP.

To Digg or not to digg… ?

That is the question !

Since M$ replaces Google has advertisement exclusive provider for Digg, I wonder if I will keep "digging" some articles there...

But if I start like that, it means that I'm becoming an OpenSource extremist.... So ok, I give up my first idea and I still will "digg"... but of course no without having learned to my adds and banner blocker :-)

I just hope that the really interesting articles about OpenSource won't disappear.
