They are demanding to be told that old systems won’t break before new systems are in place. They are demanding to be told that ancient social bargains aren’t in peril, that core institutions will be spared, that new methods of spreading information will improve previous practice rather than upending it. They are demanding to be lied to. fjordaan Sat, 14 Mar 2009 21:59:25 GMT http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/ fjordaan Tue, 05 Apr 2005 21:11:57 GMT http://www.blog.montgomerie.net/whither-eucalyptus If you’re wondering why Eucalyptus is not yet available, it’s currently in the state of being ‘rejected’ for distribution on the iPhone App Store. This is due to the fact that it’s possible, after explicitly searching for them, to find, download from the Internet, and then read texts that Apple deems ‘objectionable’. The example they have given me is a Victorian text-only translation of the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana. For the full background, a log of my communications with Apple is below. fjordaan Fri, 22 May 2009 09:08:30 GMT
