      @bkuhn no there isn't (aside from extra precision). "Anwalt" does not necessarily have to be the profession, you can be just advocating.

      @bkuhn: actually I think both work. I'm trying to come up with a sentence where this'd make a difference.

      Hmm, interesting. I wonder if I'd be considered "ein Anwalt", in the sense that I do lawyer-*like* work, but I'm not professionally a lawyer

      @bkuhn you have a website? :P Actually it's probably more that everyone uses RSS nowadays so you don't see if a website is down :)

      @bkuhn I see. Maybe you have said publicly that you wouldn't outlaw nonfree sw, which would explain this stance.

    I'd suspect !Conservancy's dress code is: "Comply w/ all local laws regarding dress". Why do you ask? Does !RedHat have a dress code?

      that's for engineers, I was shocked to find that for others there actually IS a dress code ;).

      one valid reason people do not want to be named donors is that they do not want other donation seekers hitting them up.
