00:01:10 i see, so not in eu and in greece, right? also it is not in my purpose to confuse people by making them that this is a mirror of the .com. there will be a disclaimer that will define that it is independante. as for the name, it just fits :) 00:02:20 We'll be persuing the trademark internationally in the near future and will likely get it in most areas as we have been using it internationally since 2005. Portable software is the actual category of software. PortableApps is my own invented name. 00:03:12 ok 00:04:02 We're actually going to be translating the PortableApps.com site in the near future (that's one thing I'm working on now). We currently have German but will be adding Italian, French, Russian and others. If you're interested, we are in need of a Greek translator at some point. 00:05:16 not a problem to give back something too. just wanted to know about the portableapps in greece is legal to be used as a domain name in the range of the country 00:06:37 I'm not sure from a Greek legal standpoint. But anytime you start doing business using a name that's already in international use (as ours is), you're on shakey ground. If you're looking to make a separate entity in our own space that's going to be competing with us for our own Greek-speaking users, we'd have an issue with that. 00:06:50 Just as if you were registering firefox.gr and using it to promote web browsers. 00:08:00 i am not starting any kind of business on this domain, is just for business. concerning firefox.gr i had already had it 00:08:20 Again, I'm not sure what your exact intentions are here. I'm just going based on the email and what was mentioned by Simeon. 00:08:26 for making the website of a software company which has a product called firefox too 00:09:52 "i am not starting any kind of business on this domain, is just for business." the 2nd part of that statement seems to contradict the first 00:10:34 sorry 00:10:38 mistyped 00:10:42 just for "fun" 00:10:59 Ah ok. Very different statement, heh. 00:11:05 heh 00:11:15 i was writing... portablapps maybe will be a site about grocery, or children party or santa clause, i am not asking permission from no one from it since in my country it is not under some protection (even firefox it is not as you mentioned it). just making a greek explained site for portable apps around the net. only thing i discuss is if i can use the dl links of sourceforge. 00:12:01 The biggest issue I'd have with it is if it was trading on our name. Or using our name ("PortableApps") to link to some of our illegal competitors. 00:12:24 competitors? 00:12:30 i think i've lost episoded 00:12:36 is this a business? 00:12:45 illegal sites redistributing our apps and pirated ones too. 00:13:15 There are other portable software sites. Some of whom have illegally used our software (stripped off our name, the GPL license, etc). Some do it with our same set of software. Some with pirated software like Photoshop. 00:13:22 the way I understood you is that you only link to other sites so I think thats not a problem 00:13:45 i am not interested about illegal stuff, i run a company for living, i will not had risk for making a free helping site with rapidshare 00:13:54 i defined this before hours 00:14:25 Yes, PortableApps.com is a business. It's overall goal, making portable software available to all for free, isn't very business-like. But a significant amount of money and time has been invested. And it should become self-sufficient this year. 00:14:30 also if i was interested to stripe off names and gps i wouldn't ask for official links 00:15:13 Similar in many ways to the way Mozilla is a business. 00:15:45 well in this case i see it like i giving you a boost from greek community since it will download software from your links with your gpl licence. not that i am so interested on it, first time we talk 00:16:00 anyway. can i use your official sourceforge links? 00:16:16 that is the only thing i care so i can be legal and typical :) 00:17:15 Technically, you don't need permission to link to SF downloads. Though keep in mind that they will frequently become outdated if you are manually linking to specific download versions. 00:17:43 yes i have this in mind, sooner or later i have to find a "formula" for it 00:18:02 You won't be able to link to our freeware downloads at downloads.portableapps.com. 00:18:17 no interest for it 00:18:35 i think everything is in sourceofrge, right? 00:19:00 We have that setup to only accept links from PortableApps.com to avoid people mooching our download traffic for their own site. 00:19:10 No, SF only has open source stuff. Most of it anyway. 00:19:43 in that case i will link to your page, not directly in your download links 00:19:55 Stuff like Skype, Foxit, IcoFX. SpyDLLRemover, XNView, Canabalt and soon IrfanView, Opera and many others are hosted by us directly (not SF) 00:19:57 i think that's ok 00:20:18 and thats much easier for you -> no updating of link needed. 00:20:37 gnight all - gotta go. 00:22:20 *** Simeon has quit (Quit: Leaving.) 00:22:36 *** MaienM has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 00:27:58 *** BeckySanderlin has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 00:28:44 *** BeckySanderlin (~BeckySand@c-98-252-21-200.hsd1.de.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 00:32:36 *** TimClark (8087e3a0@gateway/web/freenode/ip.128.135.227.160) has joined #portableapps 00:33:14 *** ZachThibeau has quit (Quit: Leaving) 00:33:17 Hi guys, I'm having a VLC / VLCP problem 00:33:25 *** sar3th (sar3th@unaffiliated/sar3th) has joined #portableapps 00:33:25 sar3th hopes he will have more time for pa soon :/ 00:33:40 *** sar3th is now known as sar3th|away 00:34:04 I closed VLC almost 2 minutes ago, and the proceess of both it and the launcher are still running 00:34:26 The launcher sticks around until VLC closes.
