Êpresonally .. based on all the emails, and business issues 8:10 PM È so what I see here is that the community wants an appologie 8:10 PM È same as you 8:10 PM È and more 8:11 PM drunkenbatman Arben, they want you to be straight 8:11 PM È Can you really tell me you can't find the strings I gave you in the source? 8:12 PM È Otherwise this is all just going to repeat itself 8:13 PM benardoh so you are saying vx30 is not original, and has other opensource software that it uses ? 8:13 PM drunkenbatman it certainly looks as though there's extremely strong evidence for that, doesn't it? 8:13 PM È Arben, here is the problem 8:13 PM È You just told me you couldn't find the strings I gave you 8:14 PM benardoh correct 8:14 PM drunkenbatman mplayer, xvid 8:14 PM È eventually, a binary of vx30 is going to go up for anyone to download, you know that as well as I 8:14 PM È And everyone is going to wonder why they can duplicate the evidence 8:14 PM È Yet you can't when youÊhave the source code 8:15 PM È You claimed the same thing with CherryOS, that everyone had it wrong, yet people could download it, test it for themselves 8:16 PM È You're saying you haven't even done that 8:16 PM È Otherwise youÊcould see it even if you don't have the source 8:17 PM È Just by looking at the evidence that was posted, right?l 8:17 PM È So one last time, we can forget the last part of the conversation happened -- can you really not find the strings I gave you in the source you say you have? 8:18 PM benardoh mplayer and xvid, 0 found 8:18 PM drunkenbatman http://www.tliquest.net/ryan/cherryos/vx30/analysis/xvidcopyright-sm.jpg 8:18 PM È How doÊyou explain that then? 8:18 PM benardoh I don't know 8:19 PM drunkenbatman Ok 8:19 PM benardoh how did he create the dump ? 8:19 PM drunkenbatman It's a memory dump 8:20 PM È An application has to load itself into RAM to run 8:20 PM È Anyways 8:20 PM benardoh hm 8:20 PM drunkenbatman You should know this 8:20 PM benardoh so if other applications are running, they would apear there too 8:20 PM È you said you did the same test 8:20 PM drunkenbatman No, Arben 8:20 PM benardoh did you have the same results ? 8:21 PM drunkenbatman They would not. It is a memory dump for that application -- the OS knows what is in each apps memory space, that is how it keeps things from crashing -- apps can't touch each other's memory 8:21 PM È Yes, Arben, just like I did with CherryOS, and just as you can 8:22 PM È Arben, have you checked the CherryOS executable for the evidence that was posted? 8:22 PM benardoh I was forwarding that to comsdev, asking for explaination 8:23 PM drunkenbatman *nods* But did you actually check for yourself to see if it was there? 8:23 PM benardoh nope 8:23 PM drunkenbatman Ok 8:23 PM È You still could, yes? 8:23 PM benardoh I should 8:23 PM È specially now 8:23 PM È to scared of the outcome .. 8:24 PM drunkenbatman It's probably a good idea 8:24 PM È Well, I'll tell you what Arben 8:24 PM È I'm going to be working on this for the next few days 8:25 PM È So if you are able to find anything or would like to add something -- if something comes to mind that is important, you know how to find me here or via email, yes? 8:25 PM benardoh sure, same for you .. msg me 8:25 PM È can you find the section 8:25 PM È where you found the mplayer string and xvid ? 8:26 PM drunkenbatman I don't have the source code Arben 8:26 PM benardoh well it is not in the source I use michael 8:26 PM drunkenbatman But if you have the binary 8:26 PM benardoh but as I say, I have 2 sdks that are connected 8:26 PM drunkenbatman You have two SDKs that are connected? 8:27 PM benardoh are used 8:27 PM drunkenbatman You're saying there is another set of source somewhere else? 8:27 PM benardoh yes, and to me it is important to find out if the comparison is happening based on those, because they where outsourced 8:28 PM drunkenbatman Well 8:28 PM È You have the build of your software that is on your website and available for download, yes? 8:28 PM benardoh yes 8:28 PM drunkenbatman Which is what we are all working on 8:29 PM benardoh I will try to find the strings in that bulild right now, going through the same steps, then also a build that is not using those sdks, and see if they appear. 8:29 PM È that would clear it up very fast. 8:30 PM drunkenbatman Great 8:30 PM benardoh what if they are in the sdk 8:30 PM È what do I do then ? 8:30 PM drunkenbatman You mean if they are in the outsourced code? 8:30 PM benardoh yes 8:31 PM drunkenbatman Well, I'd hope you'd let me know via email so as not to repeat what happened with CherryOS 8:32 PM È If they are, and you say one thing and everyone else sees another, that won't be good will it? Even if admitting that it's in there is hard 8:32 PM benardoh ok, but then what ? 8:32 PM drunkenbatman What do you mean? 8:33 PM benardoh well, if the sdks include gpled software or code, do I have to remove them or replace the sdk or .. what actions would be correct ? 8:34 PM È email . to you ? and then ? 8:35 PM drunkenbatman Well, I think you'd probably need to look at the GPL? 8:35 PM È I think (and this is honest) the worst thing you could do would be to just straight remove them 8:36 PM È That hasn't helped with CherryOS, but that is your decision not mine 8:37 PM È If the other source includes GPL'd code, I'll say exactly what you told me 8:38 PM È That you couldn't find it originally, but in checking the binary and the other source code, you found it and emailed and told me 8:39 PM È At any rate, could you send me an email to i =a t= drunkenblog =d ot = comÊso I have your contact info? 8:40 PM benardoh ok 8:40 PM È big mess, sorry 8:40 PM drunkenbatman It's OK 8:40 PM È I appreciate your time 8:40 PM benardoh thank you for listening 8:41 PM È you said, I should tell you when I find it 8:42 PM È how will that effect the software ? 8:42 PM drunkenbatman So, just to be clear -- you'll email me when we're done here so I have your info... and I'll hopefully hear from you in the next few days one way or the other on whether you were able to find anything in either the CherryOS build, the vx30 build, or the other version of the source? 8:42 PM È how will it effect the software? 8:43 PM benardoh well, the software has not markte potential anymore .. anyway .. 8:43 PM È flash kicked vx30s butt 8:43 PM È so it doesn't really matter 8:44 PM È and since I left mxs, .. there will be nothing to do anyway 8:44 PM È my contact info is sent 8:44 PM drunkenbatman Well, even if it did harm the software as being viable Arben, which it very well could, it isn't as though it would be worse than the alternative 8:46 PM È Seriously -- the story won't go away now, I doubt Maui-X wants to repeat everything with CherryOS, as this time the reporters will be going to the clients asking questions Ê 8:46 PM benardoh they already are, 8:46 PM È we just had clients calling us last week and today 8:46 PM drunkenbatman *nods* 8:47 PM È About vx30? 8:47 PM benardoh for bumpnetworks 8:47 PM È not even vx30 8:47 PM drunkenbatman *nods* 8:47 PM È What email address will your contact info be coming from? 8:47 PM benardoh arben@kryeziu.com 8:48 PM drunkenbatman Ok, great.
