As a Linux application developer who has used keyring/kwallet for saving secure passwords in the past. I'd recommend not to use them.

Various different distributions have different versions of the these utilities and their libraries. There are so many variations that it becomes hard to support all versions. Most desktop linux end users have never used them and when they see a warning window popping up (which these utilities tend to show). They cancel the window rather than going through the authentication process.

Just my 2 cents.

Thank you. Finally somebody gets it.

Indian college educated programmers are cheap. Really cheap. I am an Indian and I can tell you that the reason Zoho does not get good programmers is because they pay ridiculously low compensations.

Sridhar talks about people not being willing to join because his company is not a big name? I'll give him the benefit and say he is being naive. There are tons of startups (or small growing companies like Zoho) in India that get fairly good people. Some I know get outright brilliant people. The trick is to pay people on par with the industry standards and hire the best people you can get to create a good work culture.

As a developer, I do not want to work at a place where people who couldn't even complete their degrees are running riot.

How did this even get such a high mod points. This guy obviously was never part of the Webkit team. Apple did a very limited job with Webkit. Had they not forked, KHTML would have been the great engine that Webkit(apple's trademark btw) claims to be.

Apple used BSD and did not contribute anything to the community.

They took KHTML and forked it out. Webkit was just an improved Mac port of KHTML when Apple was working on it. It was only when others like Nokia(who took it to Gtk/Linux), Adobe (who took it to Windows), Qt folks and later Google (who made a skia port) and integrated a new JS engine, it actually started working on it that .

So don't tell me that Apple is some great saviour of open source or anything.

Apple is pulling wool over everyone's eyes by talking of HTML5.

Apple has never promoted an HTML5 based OpenWeb. They are moving the web to Internet enabled mini applications aka Apps from the iTunes apps store. Netflix, Hulu , DC, tons of publishers have all gone to this closed application model. They have not moved to HTML5.

This is dangerous since it makes the web accessible from only one class of devices.
I really wished we in the Open/FOSS community would realize this danger.

Dear mqbastard, you sir are incorrect.

Have you ever used ActionScript? It seems to be that you are ranting about something you have no idea of.
The moment you tell me Steve Jobs coded, I realize that you have drunk way too much Job's kool aid.

Apple is closing down the web by forcing rich internet applications to be built using a platform/sdk that runs only on apple devices.
Flash despite its inconsistencies run all major OS/devices.

Just ask Tim Berners Lee which side of the debate he is on, Adobe's open platform or Apple's closed platform. Maybe you'll realize that you are drinking Steve Job's rather than Lee's kool aid.

YSR is dead now. The current CM of AP is a big fool. Many Indians would join your rally cry now. Fuck him!

The agreement being talked about used to exist some years back. Now it does not. The Flash 10 specification is completely open and you are free to create your own versions of Flash Player compatible software.

Mods on Crack or what? Who modded this insightful?
Social Anxiety Disorder is a very real disease, quite different from shyness. It has very real physiological factors which can be countered using proper treatment and medication.
So let's not spread such wrong knowledge on slashdot.

Have you tried using Flex Builder? Flash CS3 is primarily aimed at making flash animation (and not flash applications, although flash applications can be programmed in it). Flex Builder with its flex sdk is more suited to programming.
