Does the ability to start a GPL add-on GPL-ize a program (Gstreamer) See a lawyer. There is are situations for which only people having good knowledge of applicable laws and specific details can answer -- and the answer may be "you'll be sure only when a judge has decided". My understanding is that the notion of derived work is considered looking at the bigger picture and thus just changing a few technical details (and I'm aware of a case were the lawyer contacted considered that static linking of library vs a plugin scheme was just irrelevant technical details for that case) won't change the end result. |

Chosing a parser for a code beautifier If you want to beautify C or C++, take the creative use of macros than some code base have into account (see QT for instance). Then a code beautifier needs to be able to recreate the input exactly; IMHO that should even be the baseline above which you add transformations. |

Why do bitwise operators have lower priority than comparisons? @MasonWheeler, the meaning wasn't type dependent (BCPL and B were an untyped languages like BLISS and assembly languages, TCL is also an untyped language, but using strings instead of words), it was dependent on the context (in if() it was logical, in assignation it was bitwise). |

Is there any difference between interfaces and abstract classes that have abstract methods only? @kevincline, I think there is just a "having both" lacking. IIRC, in Ada the motivation for interface was that one, the designers didn't want a general multiple inheritance feature but the special case of interface was deemed too important not to be provided. |

Is Python/Clojure a good option for development of the described expert system? Yes or No Looks like two PhD: one to build the expert system, one to make it easy to use and ergonomic. |

Why do bitwise operators have lower priority than comparisons? Seem so, a==b returns 0 or 1, see cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/kbman.html. |

Longest subsequence without string Looks too much an homework for my taste to give a full solution. Here is an hint: if you knew for a given position the longest subsequence until that position and the longest subsequence ending at that position, could you update that for the next position? |
