The fact that I haven't really had time to contribute to OSS lately has been bugging me a lot, especially each time I've been writing a diary entry here. Luckily, a solution has presented itself. I hired my company's first employee this week, and he's now working full time on software that will be released under the BSD license. Whee!

Speaking of the license -- I'm currently using the one with the advertising clause. Anyone wanna try and convince me to drop it? For the record, I don't consider GPL compatibility a reason to do so.

sisob: I don't think your premise that users who don't have root privileges don't want to be offered administration options because "they have no way of using them" is really true. In fact, I'm sure that most such users have a resident administrator on site who can be summoned to enter the password to authorize an operation. What you don't want to do is have this relatively common operation require a login/logout cycle.
