iPad 2 on/sur Fedora

English

It has been a while I wrote on this blog because I am busy running my own design business. Aside that, I recently plug an Apple iPad 2 to import pictures and videos on a Fedora 17 running Gnome Shell 3.4 out of box. It is remarkable what a free and open source software network can do to a device intended to primarily run on iTunes software.

De retour après le manque d’écrit sur ce blog en raison d'affaire professionnel relié à l'infographie. J'ai récemment branché l'iPad 2 d'Apple pour importer les photos et les vidéos sur le système de Fedora 17 roulant sur Gnome Shell 3.4. C'est remarquable qu'un réseau de logiciels libres peut supporter sans problème un dispositif conçu pour l'usage du logiciel iTune.

Sun's promise to open source Java vs GCJ

According to this Press Release via OS News , it appears Sun Microsystems allow the redistribution of their Java development for Linux distributions under a new license called Operation System Distributor's License for Java or in short "Distro License for Java". Currently, only binaries are licensed as the source code is not available for the public although SUN promise to open source Java . I wonder if that announcement will affect the whole GCJ on which Fedora Project is focusing. Pour les francophones: Selon cette note de presse via OS News, Sun Microsystems permet la redistribution des binaires Java pour les distribution de Linux sous la nouvelle license nomm&ecaute;e License des distros pour Java . Je me demande si cette annonce affectera le développement de GCJ.
