Amnesty International Looks Inside Japanese Prison ... (Oct 30 2003 05:53 GMT) - Amnesty International Looks Inside Japanese Prisons This is really a scary thought, that Amnesty has never been allowed a look into Japanese prisons before.

This demonstrates another pitfall of OSS: distributed part-time development on a wide range of projects (many of them competing) does allow for more choice, but it also results in slower progress, and multiple projects with half-implemented features and functionality." |
