[WikiEN-l] Did I miss the great Digital Universe debate?
I mean [[Digital Universe]], which will be WP in Technicolor
without errors
or trolls, or something? I realise userboxes must be more
significant ...
I'm not sure I've got it all figured out, but... according to
http://www.digitaluniverse.net/participate/ , "While participation
in discussion about the Digital Universe is free, we do require
that you have a registered account with us. You can also download
the free ManyOne browser..."
The free ManyOne browser, which apparently embodies technology
needed to participate, is only available for Windows 2000 or
Windows XP.
While "participation in discussion about the Digital Universe" may
be "free," according to
http://isp.earthportal.net/ it appears that
getting that "registered account" costs $7.95 a month.
I have no idea what they think they're doing, but I am not impressed.
