jaromil: Anomalous Wave of student protests

Thu, 20 Nov 2008 23:00:00 +0000

printable page <!menu ends here>

rss-entry

Onda Anomala is the name choosen by italian students mobilising against privatisation of schools and rising prices for education promoted by the new decree of Mariastella Gelmini, Berlusconi's minister for education. The main slogan is strong and can touch everyone's hear:

WE WON'T PAY FOR YOUR CRISIS

Progressively, the youth in Europe is recognising the precarious future that previous generations have left: more young people are acknowledging the results of financial and ecological disasters in their own lives - and many know who the responsible are.

It is a common thought this crisis being provoked by widespread incompetence and corruption of the so called "neo-liberist" leaders: a ruling cast that has substituted ethics with personal profit, that is now finally declining, leaving a dramatic trail of privatised social services, a deregulated economy in agony and dulcis in fundo an emergency plan to save its own failure stealing resources from the social welfare, most importantly the education field.

This is what is happening in Italy, as usual for politics in this country, in a very intense and outrageous way - while more international youth movements are sharing this analysis, quickly propagating the uprisings on a wider scale.

Here is the first Anomalous wave pamphlet in english, for you to read and print to inform about what is happening and why.

Migrant 2 Migrant radio: Friday 21 Nov: Unmounting the monument

info@m2m.streamtime.org (jo and sakkho) — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:13:25 +0000

Today, Thursday the 20th of November we, a handful of artists and survivors, have unmounted the monument, according to plan. But the transport to a new location has not been completed, due to bad weather: the captain of the salon boat judged the risk too big for his boat with forecasted winds up to 7 Beaufort, and sweeps of 34 miles per hour.
The detention center surprised us by handing back the canvas painting, they had taken inside a few days after the commemoration. And they helped us out of the wather problem, by bringing the unmounted art tree to a safe and visible place on the complex behind the fence.

The only serious friction occurred between the Mayor and his representative Mr. Scheffer and organizer Jo van der Spek.
They mayor had without any previous consultation with the main stakeholders of the commemoration, decided to leave the decision to the NV Schiphol, apparently the owner of the land now “temporarily” occupied by the detention center. Jo van der Spek, together with Mrs. Toekaja were offered a choice between two locations for the living trees, the Tilia Cordata. We immediately choose the first option: only 30-40 meters away from the ceremonial space with the eleven wooden pillars for each of the eleven victims of the fire. But then Mr. Scheffer pointed to three bricks standing straight up and in a straight line. Jo picked up one stone and moved it to the middle to better use the space. Scheffer jumped up and told us we were not supposed to move the bricks one inch. Why not? because Schiphol says so. Why? because the mayor has decided that this is it, take it or leave it.
Jo explained that the three trees had been planted according to instructions by expert Nic Zuurdeeg from Oosterbeek and that the formation of the three trees in a triangle was based on a long tradition of creating a full crown under which people can sit and chat and play and fool around. Like a democratic ritual communal space in the heart of the village, or near a chapel or other spriritual sign. So, please Mr. Scheffer, give us a reason why in this case Schiphol insists on have them in a straight line. Scheffer started repeating himself and refused to inform himslef and us by calling Schiphol or go back his boss, the Mayor of Haarlemmermeer. So that’s the end of the discussion, decided Jo.
No consultation, no conversation and no participation by represenatives either from the Town Council or from the organziers of the Commemoration the the local church. So nothing according to the rules of engagement that had been agreed upon less than a week ago. Trust building is hard if one party refuses to listen, to argue or to understand. It becomes impossible if the ultimatum is the last word and orders replace proposals. Scheffer forced his will and destroyed the dialogue. Without any further debate, he ordered Huub Braas and Marcel Taam (the gardeners of Water Wolf) to dig the wholes where the bricks were. Jo stepped away from the trees after the replanting of the first. Mrs. Toekaja observed how they planted the other two.

A great VIDEO report by Patrick

Under the observing camera of Patrick van den Hurk and the eyes of reporter Koen Polak of the Haarlems Dagblad , Alessio, Ben and Sakho worked their backs off to break the concrete fundament of the aluminum art tree.
Meanwhile the police officer Prinsen told us that the prison management wanted to hand us back the painting that they kept stored inside. We rejoiced and happily accpeted this gesture of respect and, possibly, embarrassment. We had hoped to be able to see the painting inside, but this gesture really came as a surpise. It greatly helped our effort to maintain the integrity of the monument as an art work and as a ceremony intact.

The Mayor and his representative had not given any sign of assistance to transport the tree to its new location. That is why we asked the managent of the detention cetre to kindly look after the tree for a couple of days. Byu Monday the depression would be over and we could finally sail our boat to Schiphol_East, load the tree and carry it to Nieuw en Meer, the artist’s colony having it’s way at the nearby Nieuwe Meer.

So see you again this Monday.
Boarding time 10 a.m.
Arrival at Schiphol East 12 o’clock.
Arrival at Nieuw en Meer at 1 p.m.

be there!

LOOK WITH US!

What happened since the commemoration?

Miloud Fritass is in prison, in the Detention Centre of Rotterdam Airport (Zestienhoven). We have succeeded to postpone his extradition to Morocco by mobilizing as survivors and supporting artists and activists. Lawyers did their bit, a member of Parliament has had the guts to ask critical questions. And the judge forbade extradition on medical grounds. Our brother is under heavy stress, on top of the post-traumatic stress disorder that dominates his mind ever since the fire.
On Wednesday morning the Rotterdam Court will meet in public session to decide whether or not he has the right to recover his mental health in Holland before being deported.
A serious delegation will be on the public bench to meet and greet him. And give him a piece of our Monument.
That is on Wednesday the 19th of November at 9 a.m. Wilhelminaplein 100, 3072 AK Rotterdam.

The monument that we have mounted on Sunday the 26th of October has been placed illegally according to the Mayor of the Haarlemmermeer. And he has ordered us to remove it not later than Monday 17th. of November. When we comply, he offered to find a new location on his territory. If we don’t, he said that the he will do it himself and send us the bill.
We are negotiating in order to keep communicating with all people concerned and to maintain the spirit and soul of our struggle, to make a life again as survivors of the Schiphol Fire and for recognition and justice of migrants’ rights in general. You may read our reflection in our letter (in Dutch) we delivered at 9 AM today. [See below]

We propose to temporarily deconstruct the monument:
-    the eleven wooden pillars stay where they are
-    the painting on canvas has been taken off the fence and stored inside the prison complex, according to some of the guards
-    the aluminium tree can travel too, but we must decide where to
-    the three living trees (Tilia Cordata), the indigenous ritual community tree, will be offered to the community of Haarlemmermeer

This proposal has been presented on Monday morning to the Mayor after consulting with as many people as we could.
On Monday we hope to reach an agreement with the Mayor on a good way to deal with the situation, based on the shared sense of the need to create a permanent monument and a joint commemoration next year. We have reached a mutual understanding of each others position in the meeting with the mayor last Friday. However, there was no direct representation of the survivors in this meeting. That is why we have been consulting survivors and artists and activists by phone and E-mail and will discuss the outcome in the assemblee of the survivors on Tuesday evening in Rotterdam. That is on the evening before the court session on Fritass.
We hope to be able convince the Mayor and his advisers that a process of democratic decision making that has evolved in the last three years, requires peace of mind and a minimum of time to reach a satisfactory outcome.

In the live program of M2M Radio last Friday we talked a lot about Fritass and about the news brought by NOVA on TV: new technical research on the footage of the security cameras strongly indicates that the fire did NOT start in the cell of Ahmed Isa, who has been convicted to three years in prison. The fire started in the technical installation outside the cells, which is exactly what many survivors have testified on many occasions for the last three years. This new piece of truth is a relief and a liberation for the survivors and may well lead to a reopening of the investigation by the Security Board and by the Prosecutors of the Ministry of Justice as well. The lawyer Nico Steijnen who is pressing criminal charges of cruel and inhuman treatment against the then responsible ministers Donner and Verdonk, has demanded the immediate dismissal of all charges against Ahmed Isa. And to stop torturing Fritass and all other survivors by withholding evidence, justice and proper medical care.
The European Court of Human Rights in Strassbourg is now considering admitting the request to deal with this case after receiving the documents last month.

We regret the turmoil all this causes for the survivors.
We are confident that we can deal with this, like we have so far dealt with everything since the fire.
If living is moving, than a living monument can be moving too.

We are here
To make a life again
Together as one

We are everywhere.

Last Friday delegation of the Dutch organizers of the commemoration (Jo, Jeanne, Jos, Ramon and Emilie) had a meeting with the Mayor of the Commune Haarlemmermeer, Theo Weterings.

He gave us this letter, explaining that the monument had to go. PDF

And the commander of the KMAR complained about the difficult situation we had brought him in.

And then Jo reacted. Saying: (Dutch)

We talked a bit more and then we promised to send our answers in a letter by Monday morning. After consulting with the survivors and artists who must be considered owners of the monujment at Schiphol Oost.

This is what we wrote back to the Mayor:

HAR2009 - hacking at random: Hacking at Random

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:40:12 +0000

International technology & security conference. Four days of technology, ideological debates and hands-on tinkering.

On August 13-16, 2009 the 20th anniversary edition of the four-yearly Dutch outdoor technology-conference will take place near Vierhouten, NL.

What is HAR?

Since 1989 the international community that builds the internet has been getting together on a series of conferences to discuss the state of contemporary technology, the future of it and the sociological and political consequences of their work. The participants vary from students and people with personal interests to researchers, scientists and entrepreneurs who are widely recognized as the best in their field.

The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, the average level of knowledge is high and outside of the official lectures the site is buzzing with energy, ideas and projects. The New York Times likened the 1997 edition to a “Woodstock for Hackers”. We do our best to keep that atmosphere.

When these conferences first happened twenty years ago, the internet was like the Wild West, a new frontier to explore. That has changed, virtually every household in the Western world has access to the internet and, just as happened in the Wild West, new questions have risen. Questions of governance, sustainability, integration with existing power structures, shortage of IP space and energy, censorship, security, etc. The notion of hacking, to use a system in a creative way that was not thought of when it was invented, has also shown to be applicable to fields outside of ICT technology.

Where is HAR?

The location (+52° 19′ 50.02″, +5° 49′ 27.98″) is near Vierhouten, a small settlement in the beautiful Veluwe area renowned for its culinary industry. The former socialist youth-camp de Paasheuvel provides some good old-fashioned Dutch gezelligheid. A variety of camping areas will cater to our broad range of camping and non-camping audience: varying from secluded spots in the foliage to larger fields for those of you who want to cluster together to form a village.

There is a train-station nearby, in Nunspeet. From there it is a 10-minute drive to the festival terrain. Some form of transport from the station to the terrain will be arranged, but the truly adventurous among you may choose to take a hike: it is definetely within walking distance and the surroundings will not disappoint.

Who is HAR?

You, me and some hundreds (if not thousands) of other like-minded folks. In true spirit, there will be no visitors but only volunteers. In order to keep costs low, expect to lend a hand here and there. You might be operating the A/V-equipment in one of the lecture tents, sweep the floor in the bar tent, check in visitors at the entrance or pour drinks at the bar. A great way to discover new talents, or develop those hidden ones you never suspected you had!

Of course, there is a somewhat smaller group of madmen and women that will lay (and have been laying) the groundwork for another great edition in the year leading up to the event. This event could easily be dubbed ‘the next generation’. Because, yes, the original crew that has been working hard on these conferences have earned a relaxing holiday by organising the four preceeding events. A new generation is eager to take over, and continue their legacy. Not to say that the old farts are not interested, au contraire my friends. There is a healthy mix of new blood and experienced hands currently working on the necesarry preparations.

In fact, this is reflected nicely in the foundation that was set up to handle all the paperwork and other legal requirements: the Hxx foundation. Its board is a 50/50 mix of old and new: Aldert Hazenberg and Mischa Peters have been involved to a great extent in all past events, Koen Martens made his organising debut 3 years ago on WTH and Mathijs Schmittmann is our new kid on the block.

In case you are wondering “but where is Rop Gonggrijp”, no fears: he is right around the corner and believes we “pesky new-generation event-hackers” are going to do just fine. He will help out where possible, but more on that below.

Of course, HAR will not happen without huge sums of money. We have tried to keep ticket prices low, even in these times of financial crisis, so we are attracting a number of sponsors and donors. But don’t worry, HAR will not be called ‘Yoyodyne Inc. HAR2009′ even if Yoyodyne coughs up millions of euro’s.

And more..

As this is being written, the last work is undertaken on the ticket-webshop, which we hope to have online early december. At the same time, the program committee, led by the more than qualified Rop Gonggrijp, is preparing the call for papers and otherwise developing a solid lecture program that’ll make your mouth water (even if you have visited every single conference between WTH and now and seen em all).

Of course, planning has started on an in-promptu power infrastructure and intranet, with uplink to the interwebs. And naturally, there will be various foods and beverages.

HAR2009 - hacking at random: Yes we can!

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:39:56 +0000

We interrupt this bulletin for a special announcement that just came in:

“It’s happening again. A team has formed. Some of the people that have always played a big part, some new faces, but the vibe is most definitely felt. Sure: lots (LOTS) of difficulties to overcome, but at this point it really does feel to me as if:

a) it will happen in 2009
b) and in The Netherlands after all
c) and it is going to be good

Being too preoccupied with some nasty personal affairs to be part of the main organising team, I’m more of an involved onlooker at this point. Which has not stopped me from sharing whatever knowledge and contacts I can, and I’m helping out in the program team as well. For now, it looks as if these pesky new-generation event-hackers are managing just fine though: for one they’ve already managed to come up with a nicer logo and a better location than any of the previous events.

Just like with any of the previous editions, the people organising can only imagine and set up a fraction of what’s needed. The rest is traditionally done by all of us together. So I urge all of you to not sit around to see if the organisers are doing a good enough job, but to stand up and help do it instead. I know I am…

My name is Rop Gonggrijp, and I approve this event. “

Migrant 2 Migrant radio: Video of action at Zaandam jailboat

info@m2m.streamtime.org (jo and sakkho) — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 10:13:27 +0000

The 25th of October a group of activists succeeded in climbing a cage on the territory of the Zaandam jailboats.

These boats are being used for the detention of undocumented people. The activists could make contact with the people inside. A film was made of the action.

The film contains material shot by one of the activists with a mobile phone from the roof of the cage. This clearly shows a prisoner being taken to isolation by the prison riot squad ‘IBT’. If you watch closely, you can see them threatening the man with a baton…

The action ended with the arrest of the activists after 3half hour.

Abbadingo: Infopoint, more words

acracia@riseup.net (acracia) — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 03:55:44 +0000

The idea with the Infopoint is to facilitate the daily tasks of a real group, without being intrusive or bureaucratic. It will not replace a group of people, but it will help to organize its work.

The infopoint is a live cd to install a NOC, a Network Operations Center, in a social space. Is linked to the physical space is built for, and to the people that makes the space run, or comes to it.

The Infopoint is a machine that runs on the local network and provides several network services like network shaping or web proxy, but also will help with calendaring, resources allocation, to do lists.

Why we want to make a new application? There are several applications on the open source business side of things to handle schedules/resource allocation. But all of them are based on a hierarchical, business mind. We would like to develop a tool to help other forms of more empathic or also changing organizations, where people comes to collaborate once a week but is not there every day, for example.

On the resources allocation, somebody could come to the desk where there is a person doing the shift of that evening and say: “I want to give a workshop about something the day 15 and I need a projector and also I would like to record the talk”. All this information can be put in the machine, and the projector and the room will be reserved for that talk.

Other person can see there’s a task to be done, but cannot do it. This task can go to a task pool, so everybody on the group knows about it.

Is important to notice how much time people that works on production - management of a cultural space spends on the phone and repeating things. Specially in non-professional environments.

How does code dream? What are the dreams of code?

Piksel08 examines the other side of code, an alternative side to a hard-coded reality of work and play. Open hardware and free software project a utopic vision, yet exist within economies of capital, the dream factory of mainstream technology. Within the chance meeting of sewing machine and umbrella on the dissecting table, hardware and software are flattened.

Piksel08: code dreams explores the dreams of this soft machine; bachelors coding for pleasure, reverse engineering paranoiac constructs of the real, automatic coding practice, soft hardware, and everyday magic.

Abbadingo: a liquidsoap restart script

acracia@riseup.net (acracia) — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 16:58:07 +0000

I use liquidsoap on several machines as a playlist engine for streaming archived material.

But many times the connection or the bufffer will fail, and the stream needs to be restarted.

For that I asked jaromil to help me out with a little shell script that checks each two minutes if the stream is on the server. In the case the stream gives a 404, the machine restarts the liquidsoap system, and the stream is online again!

In the server, for security reasons, the liquidsoap has its own user.

So I want to have a small script I can run on the crontab for that user:

liquidsoap@labbs:~$ crontab -l
# m h dom mon dow command
#radio hackmeeting
*/2 * * * * /usr/share/radio/checkstatus/icecheck.sh > /dev/null &

This is the script:

#!/bin/bash

mount=http://giss.tv:8000/hackmeeting.ogg

cd /usr/share/radio/checkstatus/

rm res

lynx -dump -error_file=res ${mount}  > /dev/null &

sleep 1

killall lynx

result=`cat res | awk '/STATUS/ {print $2}'`

# if stream not running, restart it
if [ "$result" = "404" ]; then
        killall -9 liquidsoap
        echo “hackmeeting streaming restarted” >> /home/liquidsoap/liquidsoap-hm.log
        cd /home/liquidsoap
        /usr/local/bin/liquidsoap scripts/nerdfiles-hackmeeting.liq &
fi

cd -

Now the computer will check each 2 minutres for the stream…. and I will not find the radio down anymore!

This is no shallow postmodern genre surfing, writes Neil Gray, but a passionate re-engagement with history for the sake of the present

Piksel - free software video community: veejay 1.4 released

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 13:33:06 +0000

Veejay is a 'visual' instrument and realtime video sampler

It allows you to "play" the video like you would play a piano.
While playing, you can record the resulting video directly to disk (video sampling).

Veejay can be used to manipulate video in a realtime environment i.e. 'VeeJay'
for visual performances or for (automated) interactive video installations.

News:
=====
Veejay 1.4 supports now the perspective transformation on a per-sample basis,
You can use this feature to calibrate your camera in such way that the video
projected corresponds with the object's position in physical space - at least,
approximately depending on pixel to millimeter ratio's. This is great for setups
wall projections like interactive mirrors or floor projections with interactive water
(rippleTV) You can also use this feature to project the video onto an object on stage.
This feature is in beta.

New Features:
=============
* Beta: Camera/Projector calibration.
* Chained rendering of image effects
* Sample based perspective transformation setup (CTRL-s)
* Some new FX

Changes:
========
* Veejay/GveejayReloaded

- Many bugfixes
- support lower resolution streams when playing in highres
- better colorspace support
- Improved handling of action files (veejay's saved settings)
- Improved OSD/Font rendering and SRT subtitling

jaromil: Let's talk about cyber-crime

Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:00:00 +0000

printable page <!menu ends here>

rss-entry

And guess who are the criminals: kids hacking closed systems to claim their own freedom, or corporations corrupting policy makers to expand their monopolies?

In the last two days the situation became clear, as several articles opened an important debate on the integrity of digital policy makers around the World: it seems that top Micro$oft executives have been bullying patents on treatments for malaria, HIV, TB, hepatitis, smallpox, and cancer. They have been also bidding a Nigerian contractor $400,000 to retard Linux's movement into the government sector.

And last but not least, they have been signing contracts with the European Community that the EU Council now refuses to make public: Marco Cappato, a member of the EU parliament, reports that his request to divulge was denied as "the [divulging] of [this] information could jeopardize the protection of commercial interest of Micro$oft". On the same track, the EU Council refuses to release the ACTA documents, about the controversial Anti Counterfeit Trade Agreement.

Considering the ethical implications behind the adoption of Free Software in the public sector, these facts are clearly outlining the criminal conduct of the Micro$oft corporation in various governmental sectors.

jaromil: Justice on Genova 2001?

Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:00:00 +0000

In a few days will be pronounced the verdict for the 29 police agents charged for violence on protestants the night of 21-22 july in Genova when they broke in the Diaz school and beat up all people sheltered inside, silenced the radio station and among the others nearly killed british journalist Mark Covell.

Mark is sitting in the front-line of this process, which is extremely important for Europe: demonstrating that after little more than half a century we are still able to recognise when fascism takes over our freedom.

I fear a big delusion, especially considering the outcome of the Bolzaneto court-case about the same night in that prison, where 209 people denounced having been tortured, still the court denied that was a violation of human rights.

Abbadingo: radio inaudible - con fe en el caos

acracia@riseup.net (acracia) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 17:39:27 +0000

Desde que terminó el Hackmeeting este año se formó en la Casa Invisible un grupo de radio.

Si se sigue el impulso terminará haciendo radio por las ondas, ya que hay un transistor que necesita un par de arreglos. Por ahora estamos poniendo en funcionamiento la infraestructura de producción y almacenamiento de audios.

Los técnicos invisibles están montando el estudio, con una mesa reciclada que hubo que arreglar y micros y mate.

Un grupo heterogéneo se está constituyendo como productor de contenidos, para grabar y propiciar el espacio en el que otras personas a su vez puedan dejar contenidos.

A mí me toca estar en el grupo que dará la infraestructura informática. Pero como dice el Jaro, MAI PAURA, miedo nunca, y además cuento con la ayuda de los tres carlos! el moro, el san juan, el wifi.

Estamos montando un sistema de continuidad con el Liquidsoap, que se almacena en dos sitios: En el servidor de red local de la Casa Invisible y en Labbs.net, que una vez más echa un cable en un proyecto de streaming….

Además necesitamos una interfaz para que los productores de audio puedan agregar archivos a la continuidad, enriqueciendo y agrandando el archivo. Esta interfaz de momento la resolveremos con un servicio ftp que resulta fácil de usar para nuestros mediactivistas.

Al mismo tiempo, preparamos el estudio de la radio para poder encodear material, tanto el producido ahí como otros materiales. Hay una red SAMBA que ayuda a repartir el material en local cuando estamos en la Casa Invisible, y que al mismo tiempo sirve de backup y cache del servicio online. Este estudio también puede hacer programas en vivo, para lo que estamos preparando una máquina.

En el servidor, el liquidsoap estará chequeando un punto de montaje específico (provocando, a decir verdad, un poco de spam en los logs del icecast…) y en el momento en que este punto de montaje esté activo, el liquidsoap lo pondrá en lugar de la continuidad. De este modo podemos tener una sola dirección de streaming, y cuando tenemos un streaming live el liquidsoap lo emitirá.

Ahora lo que gustaría es tener todo esto empaquetado de alguna manera…

The latest news is that our brother Miloud Fritass is in a life threatening sitiuation. He is in detention centre Alphen aan den Rijn, and Justice wants to deport him back to Morocco. His ticket is ready for Wednesday 12th of November. This must be stopped! Before Miloud kills himself.

We will also talk about our monument at Schiphol Oost. And how we can convince the mayor to embrace it. We will meet him next week!

Our special guests this evening are Jun Julien Matsushita, coordinator of the Radio Connect Project of Internews Europe and his partner Wais zahir of Nai, supporting open media in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan’s 37 independent local radio stations will be put online through a platform which will enable them to collect advertising and sponsorship over the Internet. All Afghan local independent stations, including those located in some of the most remote areas of the country, will be given new opportunities and new skills to develop their business and increase their revenue.

Migrant 2 Migrant radio: Survivors and relatives

info@m2m.streamtime.org (jo and sakkho) — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 12:27:23 +0000

Who are the survivors of the Schiphol Fire?

There were 85 people locked up in block J and K. They are the officially recognized survivors of the fire. Bart Zuidervaart of newspaper Trouw published their story the day before the Commemoration. On the flash map (below) you can see the names of those known to us. But many are still unidentified. They are from China, Turkey, Rumania, Ex-Yogoslavia, etc. In all there were people from 36 different nationalities.

Besides block J and K, many people in Block D, next to block K, are equally traumatized by the fire that happened in front of their eyes. They sounded the first alarm, but they were neglected by the guards. These people have not been seen as victims or survivors. They were in for smuggling cocaine from Latin America and arrested at their entry on the airport. The prison complex has actually been constructed to tackle the rising number of people from Suriname who try to make a buck this way.

And then there are another 150 people who were in other blocks. They were also undocumented migrants from all over the world. And they were deported as soon as possible after the fire. Nobody knows who they are and how they survive these days.

The relatives of the eleven dead, some of them in Holland, but most in distant places, are trying to cope with their loss in their own way. We reach out to them, like we reach out to all brothers and sisters affected and by the fire and by the politics that caused it.

And we don’t forget the helpers: those guards who really tried to save lives, the fire brigade that arrived too late to face the fire and the health workers who did not distinguish between legal and illegal patients.

The eleven dead have been documenmted by Jannetje Koelewijn in NRC Handelsblad.

This is a map of cellblock K. Move over the cells voor information (in Dutch) about the people who were locked there the day of the fire.

Defective by Design: MP3 Compatible

Wed, 05 Nov 2008 14:20:06 +0000

In Britain, seven of the largest retailers of MP3 downloads have produced a logo which promotes the MP3 format for DRM-free downloads.

The Entertainment Retailers Association devised the logo to emphasize the fact that MP3 files can be played on any digital player.

While MP3 is still encumbered by patents, and sites supporting Ogg Vorbis would really be something amazing, this is a good move for consumers who know about the DRM issue.

Ben Drury from 7Digital, one of the first online retailers in the UK to offer MP3 downloads said that online sales "have been booming" because users "love the freedom of MP3".

Piksel - free software video community: Theora 1.0 final release

Tue, 04 Nov 2008 10:50:32 +0000

The Xiph.Org Foundation announces the release of Theora 1.0.

Theora is a video codec with a small CPU footprint that offers easy
portability and requires no patent royalties. While the Theora
bitstream format was standardized in 2004 and our beta releases have
been used by millions, this 1.0 release is an important milestone
reflecting the maturity and stability of the Theora codebase.

A number of leading multimedia web groups already support Theora.
Upcoming releases of Mozilla Firefox, the world's most popular open
source browser, will support Theora natively, as will releases of the
multi-platform Opera browser. Top-10 website Wikipedia uses Theora
for all of its video. "Open media formats are critical for ensuring a
future where everyone can create and share media freely," says Kat
Walsh, Wikimedia Foundation board member, "and so we congratulate
Xiph.org on this important achievement." Theora's success in these
applications paves the way for wider adoption.
