-               <description>&lt;p&gt;The movie &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.takepart.com/internets-own-boy&quot;&gt;The
-Internet&#39;s Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz&lt;/a&gt;&quot; is both inspiring
-and depressing at the same time.  The work of Aaron Swartz has
-inspired me in my work, and I am grateful of all the improvements he
-was able to initiate or complete.  I wish I am able to do as much good
-in my life as he did in his.  Every minute of this 1:45 long movie is
-inspiring in documenting how much impact a single person can have on
-improving the society and this world.  And it is depressing in
-documenting how the law enforcement of USA (and other countries) is
-corrupted to a point where they can push a bright kid to his death for
-downloading too many scientific articles.  Aron is dead.  Let us all
-weep.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The movie is available on
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXr-2hwTk58&quot;&gt;Youtube&lt;/a&gt;.  I
-wish there were Norwegian subtitles available, so I could show it to
-my parents.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Tenk om et norsk sykehus delte informasjon om hva som blir lest og
+hvem som leser på sykehusets nettsted, med noen som samarbeider med et
+fremmed lands etterretningsvesen, og at flere andre fremmede lands
+etterretningstjenester kan snappe opp informasjonen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Tenk om flere sykehus, kommuner, helsestasjoner, universitet,
+høyskoler, grunnskoler, Stortinget, det meste av offentlig
+forvaltning, medier, adopsjonstjenester og krisesenter gjør det
+samme?&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Tenk om de som lytter kan holde oversikt over norske borgeres
+interesser, sykdommer, rusmisbruk, adopsjon, abort, barnehager,
+politiske interesser og sympatier samt hvilke argumenter som har best
+effekt på beslutningstagere og måter de kan påvirkes. Ville det gitt
+grunn til bekymring?&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Høres det ut som noe tatt ut fra fantasien til George Orwell,
+forfatteren av dystopien 1984?  Det er virkeligheten i Norge i dag,
+takket være bruken av statistikktjenester som Google Analytics.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Du kan beskytte deg&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Men borgerne har et forsvar mot dette angrepet på privatsfæren.
+Dagens nettlesere har utvidelser som støtter å blokkere slik
+utlevering av informasjon.  Personlig bruker jeg Privacy Badger,
+Ghostery, NoScript og AdBlock, og anbefaler alle å gjøre noe
+tilsvarende.  Merk at noen av verktøyene lekker informasjon, i tillegg
+til å gjøre en nyttig jobb, så det er lurt å bruke flere sammen.  I
+tillegg bør hver og en av oss sende inn protest til organisasjonene
+bak nettsteder som bidrar til dette inngrepet i privatsfæren.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvem bidrar til overvåkningen?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Takket være Ghostery la jeg merke til at flere og flere norske
+nettsteder begynte å la Google Analytics overvåke brukerne. Jeg ble
+nysgjerrig på hvor mange det gjaldt, og gikk igjennom ca. 2700 norske
+nettsteder, hovedsakelig offentlig forvaltning.  Jeg laget et system
+for å koble seg opp automatisk og sjekke hvor nettstedene spredte
+informasjon om besøket. Jeg ble overrasket både over omfanget og hva
+slags nettsteder som rapporterer besøksinformasjon ut av landet.
+Omtrent 70 prosent av de 2700 sender informasjon til Google Analytics.
+Noen tilfeldige eksempler er Akershus Universitetssykehus, Sykehuset
+Østfold, Lommelegen, Oslo krisesenter, Stortinget, den norske
+regjering, de fleste politiske partier på Stortinget, NAV, Altinn,
+NRK, TV2, Helse Førde, Helse Stavanger, Oslo kommune,
+Nasjonalbiblioteket, Pasientombudet, Kongehuset, Politiet,
+Teknologirådet, Tollvesenet, Norsk romsenter, Forsvarsbygg og
+Sivilforsvaret. Og det er mange flere.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Hvordan kan det offentlige Norge omfavne en slik praksis? Det er
+gode hensikter bak. Google har laget en god tjeneste for
+nettstedseiere, der de uten å betale med noe annet enn en bit av de
+besøkenes privatsfære får tilgang til nyttig og presis statistikk over
+nettstedets bruk ved å besøke netttjenesten hos Google.  De færreste
+merker ulempene angrepet på privatsfæren som nettstedene og Google
+utgjør.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvordan foregår det?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I nettsider kan nettsteder legge inn lenker til programkode som
+skal kjøres av brukerens nettleser.  De som tar i bruk Google
+Analytics legger typisk inn lenke til et javascript-program hos Google
+som ber nettleseren ta kontakt med Google og dele IP-adresse, side
+besøkt, aktuelle cookies og endel informasjon om nettleseren med
+Google Analytics.  Programmet trenger ikke være det samme for alle som
+henter det fra Google.  Det finnes et Google Analytics-tilvalg kalt
+«anonymisering» som nettstedeier kan ta i bruk.  Dette instruerer det
+omtalte programmet om å be Google slette deler av den oversendte
+IP-adressen.  Full IP-adresse sendes likevel over og er tilgjengelig
+for alle som snapper opp informasjonen underveis.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Takket være varsleren Edward Snowden, som bidro til uvurderlig
+dokumentasjon på snurpenot-overvåkningen som nordmenn blir utsatt for,
+vet vi at Google samarbeider med USAs etteretning som avlytter trafikk
+sendt til Google Analytics.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Men allerede før Snowden var det bekreftet at både britiske GCHQ og
+USAs NSA avlytter og lagrer blant annet Internett-trafikk som er innom
+et av landene, i tillegg til at FRA i Sverige avlytter og lagrer
+trafikk som passerte grensa til Sverige.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Og som
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dn.no/tekno/2013/02/03/amerikanerne-kan-se-hvert-ord-du-skriver&quot;&gt;Datatilsynet
+sa til Dagens Næringsliv i 2013&lt;/a&gt; kunne de vanskelig nekte bruk av
+skytjenester som Google Analytics når Norge var bundet av EUs «Safe
+Harbour»-avtale med USA.  De måtte derfor se bort fra
+f.eks. FISAAA-loven (som lar NSA avlytte Internett-trafikk) i sine
+vurderinger.  Når nå EUs «Safe Harbour»-avtale er underkjent, og det
+foreslås å bruke individuell avtalerett mellom selskaper som juridisk
+grunnlag for å sende personopplysninger til USA, er det greit å huske
+på at FISAA-loven og andre som brukes av USA som grunnlag for
+masseovervåkning overstyrer slike avtaler.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For øvrig burde varsleren Edward Snowden få politisk asyl i
+Norge.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Alle_Stortingets_mobiltelefoner_kontrolleres_fra_USA___.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Wed, 7 Oct 2015 09:55:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Jeg lot meg fascinere av
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/iriks/politikk/Stortinget-har-tilgang-til-a-fjernstyre-600-mobiler-8192692.html&quot;&gt;en
-artikkel i Aftenposten&lt;/a&gt; der det fortelles at «over 600 telefoner som
-benyttes av stortingsrepresentanter, rådgivere og ansatte på
-Stortinget, kan «fjernstyres» ved hjelp av
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airwatch.androidagent&quot;&gt;programvaren
-Airwatch&lt;/a&gt;, et såkalte MDM-program (Mobile Device Managment)».  Det
-hele bagatelliseres av Stortingets IT-stab, men det er i hovedsak på
-grunn av at journalisten ikke stiller de relevante spørsmålene.  For
-meg er det relevante spørsmålet hvem som har lovlig tilgang (i henhold
-til lokal lovgiving, dvs. i hvert fall i Norge, Sverige, UK og USA)
-til informasjon om og på telefonene, og hvor enkelt det er å skaffe
-seg tilgang til hvor mobilene befinner seg og informasjon som befinner
-seg på telefonene ved hjelp av utro tjenere, trusler, innbrudd og
-andre ulovlige metoder.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Bruken av AirWatch betyr i realiteten at USAs etteretning og
-politimyndigheter har full tilgang til stortingets mobiltelefoner,
-inkludert posisjon og innhold, takket være
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_Intelligence_Surveillance_Act_of_1978_Amendments_Act_of_2008&quot;&gt;FISAAA-loven&lt;/a&gt;
-og
-&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_security_letter&quot;&gt;National
-Security Letters&lt;/a&gt;&quot; og det enkle faktum at selskapet
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.airwatch.com/&quot;&gt;AirWatch&lt;/a&gt; er kontrollert av et
-selskap i USA.  I tillegg er det kjent at flere lands
-etterretningstjenester kan lytte på trafikken når den passerer
-landegrensene.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Jeg har bedt om mer informasjon
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mimesbronn.no/request/saksnummer_for_saker_anganede_br&quot;&gt;fra
-Stortinget om bruken av AirWatch&lt;/a&gt; via Mimes brønn så får vi se hva
-de har å fortelle om saken.  Fant ingenting om &#39;airwatch&#39; i
-postjournalen til Stortinget, så jeg trenger hjelp før jeg kan be om
-innsyn i konkrete dokumenter.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Oppdatering 2015-10-07: Jeg er blitt spurt hvorfor jeg antar at
-AirWatch-agenten rapporterer til USA og ikke direkte til Stortingets
-egen infrastruktur.  Det stemmer at det er teknisk mulig å sette
-opp mobiltelefonene til å rapportere til datamaskiner som eies av
-Stortinget.  Jeg antar det rapporteres til AirWatch sine sentrale
-tjenester basert på det jeg leste fra beskrivelsen av
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.airwatch.com/solutions/mobile-device-management/&quot;&gt;Mobile
-Device Management&lt;/A&gt; på AirWatch sine egne nettsider, koblet med at
-det brukes en standard app som kan hentes fra &quot;app-butikkene&quot; for å få
-tilgang.  Enten må app-en settes opp individuelt hos Stortinget, eller
-så får den beskjed fra AirWatch i USA om hvor den skal koble seg opp.
-I det første tilfellet vil den ikke rapportere direkte til USA, men
-til programvare utviklet av AirWatch som kjører på en maskin under
-Stortingets kontroll.  Det er litt bedre, men fortsatt vil det være
-umulig for Stortinget å være sikker på hva programvaren som tar imot
-forbindelser gjør.  Jeg ser fra beskrivelsen av
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.airwatch.com/differentiators/enterprise-integration/&quot;&gt;Enterprice
-Integration&lt;/a&gt; hos AirWatch at det er mulig å ha lokal installasjon,
-og håper innsynsforespørsler mot Stortinget kan fortelle mer om
-hvordan ting konkret fungerer der.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Norge er aktiv i Trade in Services Agreement-forhandlingene, og
+regjeringen forteller at
+«&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regjeringen.no/no/tema/utenrikssaker/handelspolitikk/tisa/id2403335/&quot;&gt;TISA
+vil sikre norske tjenesteeksportører forutsigbar og
+ikke-diskriminerende adgang til utenlandske tjenestemarkeder&lt;/a&gt;».
+Det er mulig at det stemmer.  Men den gjør mye mer enn det.  Avtalen
+forhandles i hemmelighet, og kun takket være
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://wikileaks.org/tisa/&quot;&gt;Wikileaks&lt;/a&gt; er
+utkast og biter kjent i offentligheten.  Det som er blitt kjent er
+for eksempel at TISA kan
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20150604/06324931218/tisa-agreement-might-outlaw-governments-mandating-open-source-software-many-situations.shtml&quot;&gt;blokkere
+myndigheter fra å kreve bruk av fri programvare i mange
+situasjoner&lt;/a&gt;, hvilket vil fjerne muligheten vår til å ha kontroll
+over egne datasystemer i slike tilfeller.  Den kan også
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/05/tisa-yet-another-leaked-treaty-youve-never-heard-makes-secret-rules-internet&quot;&gt;blokkere
+Norges mulighet til å holde kontroll med overføring av
+personinformasjon ut av landet&lt;/a&gt;, hvilket Snowden-bekreftelsene har
+dokumentert er svært problematisk.
+
+&lt;p&gt;Jeg ble derfor veldig glad da jeg i dag ble tipset i dag om at det
+allerede finnes en aktiv organisasjon,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.folkeaksjonenmottisa.no/&quot;&gt;Folkeaksjonen mot
+TISA&lt;/a&gt;, som jobber for å hindre at Norge signerer på TISA-avtalen.
+Her må alle gode krefter jobbe sammen.  Jeg skal sende dem litt
+penger, og se om jeg har kapasitet til å bidra med mer.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;In Norway, all government offices are required by law to keep a
+list of every document or letter arriving and leaving their offices.
+Internal notes should also be documented.  The document list (called a mail
+journal - &quot;postjournal&quot; in Norwegian) is public information and thanks
+to the Norwegian Freedom of Information Act (Offentleglova) the mail
+journal is available for everyone.  Most offices even publish the mail
+journal on their web pages, as PDFs or tables in web pages.  The state-level offices even have a shared web based search service (called
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.oep.no/&quot;&gt;Offentlig Elektronisk Postjournal -
+OEP&lt;/a&gt;) to make it possible to search the entries in the list.  Not
+all journal entries show up on OEP, and the search service is hard to
+use, but OEP does make it easier to find at least some interesting
+journal entries .&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In 2012 I came across a document in the mail journal for the
+Norwegian Ministry of Transport and Communications on OEP that
+piqued my interest.  The title of the document was
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.oep.no/search/resultSingle.html?journalPostId=4192362&quot;&gt;Internet
+Governance and how it affects national security&lt;/a&gt;&quot; (Norwegian:
+&quot;Internet Governance og påvirkning på nasjonal sikkerhet&quot;).  The
+document date was 2012-05-22, and it was said to be sent from the
+&quot;Permanent Mission of Norway to the United Nations&quot;.  I asked for a
+copy, but my request was rejected with a reference to a legal clause said to authorize them to reject it
+(&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovdata.no/lov/2006-05-19-16/§20&quot;&gt;offentleglova § 20,
+letter c&lt;/a&gt;) and an explanation that the document was exempt because
+of foreign policy interests as it contained information related to the
+Norwegian negotiating position, negotiating strategies or similar.  I
+was told the information in the document related to the ongoing
+negotiation in the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).  The
+explanation made sense to me in early January 2013, as a ITU
+conference in Dubay discussing Internet Governance
+(&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Telecommunication_Union#World_Conference_on_International_Telecommunications_2012_.28WCIT-12.29&quot;&gt;World
+Conference on International Telecommunications - WCIT-12&lt;/a&gt;) had just
+ended,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.digi.no/kommentarer/2012/12/18/tvil-om-usas-rolle-pa-teletoppmote&quot;&gt;reportedly
+in chaos&lt;/a&gt; when USA walked out of the negotiations and 25 countries
+including Norway refused to sign the new treaty.  It seemed
+reasonable to believe talks were still going on a few weeks later.
+Norway was represented at the ITU meeting by two authorities, the
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nkom.no/&quot;&gt;Norwegian Communications Authority&lt;/a&gt;
+and the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regjeringen.no/no/dep/sd/&quot;&gt;Ministry of
+Transport and Communications&lt;/a&gt;.  This might be the reason the letter
+was sent to the ministry.  As I was unable to find the document in the
+mail journal of any Norwegian UN mission, I asked the ministry who had
+sent the document to the ministry, and was told that it was the Deputy
+Permanent Representative with the Permanent Mission of Norway in
+Geneva.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Three years later, I was still curious about the content of that
+document, and again asked for a copy, believing the negotiation was
+over now.  This time
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://mimesbronn.no/request/kopi_av_dokumenter_i_sak_2012914&quot;&gt;I
+asked both the Ministry of Transport and Communications as the
+receiver&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://mimesbronn.no/request/brev_om_internet_governance_og_p&quot;&gt;asked
+the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva as the sender&lt;/a&gt; for a
+copy, to see if they both agreed that it should be withheld from the
+public.  The ministry upheld its rejection quoting the same law
+reference as before, while the permanent mission rejected it quoting a
+different clause
+(&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovdata.no/lov/2006-05-19-16/§20&quot;&gt;offentleglova § 20
+letter b&lt;/a&gt;), claiming that they were required to keep the
+content of the document from the public because it contained
+information given to Norway with the expressed or implied expectation
+that the information should not be made public.  I asked the permanent
+mission for an explanation, and was told that the document contained
+an account from a meeting held in the Pentagon for a limited group of NATO
+nations where the organiser of the meeting did not intend the content
+of the meeting to be publicly known.  They explained that giving me a
+copy might cause Norway to not get access to similar information in
+the future and thus hurt the future foreign interests of Norway.  They
+also explained that the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva was not
+the author of the document, they only got a copy of it, and because of
+this had not listed it in their mail journal.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Armed with this
+knowledge I asked the Ministry to reconsider and asked who was the
+author of the document, now realising that it was not same as the
+&quot;sender&quot; according to Ministry of Transport and Communications.  The
+ministry upheld its rejection but told me the name of the author of
+the document.  According to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.regjeringen.no/no/aktuelt/unga69_rapport1/id2001204/&quot;&gt;a
+government report&lt;/a&gt; the author was with the Permanent Mission of
+Norway in New York a bit more than a year later (2014-09-22), so I
+guessed that might be the office responsible for writing and sending
+the report initially and
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mimesbronn.no/request/mote_2012_i_pentagon_om_itu&quot;&gt;asked
+them for a copy&lt;/a&gt; but I was obviously wrong as I was told that the
+document was unknown to them and that the author did not work there
+when the document was written.  Next, I asked the Permanent Mission of
+Norway in Geneva and the Foreign Ministry to reconsider and at least
+tell me who sent the document to Deputy Permanent Representative with
+the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva.  The Foreign Ministry also
+upheld its rejection, but told me that the person sending the document
+to Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva was the defence attaché with
+the Norwegian Embassy in Washington.  I do not know if this is the
+same person as the author of the document.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If I understand the situation correctly, someone capable of
+inviting selected NATO nations to a meeting in Pentagon organised a
+meeting where someone representing the Norwegian defence attaché in
+Washington attended, and the account from this meeting is interpreted
+by the Ministry of Transport and Communications to expose Norways
+negotiating position, negotiating strategies and similar regarding the
+ITU negotiations on Internet Governance.  It is truly amazing what can
+be derived from mere meta-data.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I wonder which NATO countries besides Norway attended this meeting?
+And what exactly was said and done at the meeting?  Anyone know?&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;When I get a new laptop, the battery life time at the start is OK.
-But this do not last.  The last few laptops gave me a feeling that
-within a year, the life time is just a fraction of what it used to be,
-and it slowly become painful to use the laptop without power connected
-all the time.  Because of this, when I got a new Thinkpad X230 laptop
-about two years ago, I decided to monitor its battery state to have
-more hard facts when the battery started to fail.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;img src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-09-24-laptop-battery-graph.png&quot;/&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;First I tried to find a sensible Debian package to record the
-battery status, assuming that this must be a problem already handled
-by someone else.  I found
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/battery-stats&quot;&gt;battery-stats&lt;/a&gt;,
-which collects statistics from the battery, but it was completely
-broken.  I sent a few suggestions to the maintainer, but decided to
-write my own collector as a shell script while I waited for feedback
-from him.  Via
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ifweassume.com/2013/08/the-de-evolution-of-my-laptop-battery.html&quot;&gt;a
-blog post about the battery development on a MacBook Air&lt;/a&gt; I also
-discovered
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/jradavenport/batlog.git&quot;&gt;batlog&lt;/a&gt;, not
-available in Debian.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I started my collector 2013-07-15, and it has been collecting
-battery stats ever since. Now my
-/var/log/hjemmenett-battery-status.log file contain around 115,000
-measurements, from the time the battery was working great until now,
-when it is unable to charge above 7% of original capacity.  My
-collector shell script is quite simple and look like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-#!/bin/sh
-# Inspired by

-
-if [ ! -e &quot;$logfile&quot; ] ; then
-    (
-       printf &quot;timestamp,&quot;
-       for f in $files; do
-           printf &quot;%s,&quot; $f
-       done
-       echo
-    ) &gt; &quot;$logfile&quot;
-fi
-
-log_battery() {
-    # Print complete message in one echo call, to avoid race condition
-    # when several log processes run in parallel.
-    msg=$(printf &quot;%s,&quot; $(date +%s); \
-       for f in $files; do \
-           printf &quot;%s,&quot; $(cat $f); \
-       done)
-    echo &quot;$msg&quot;
-}
-
-cd /sys/class/power_supply
-
-for bat in BAT*; do
-    (cd $bat &amp;&amp; log_battery &gt;&gt; &quot;$logfile&quot;)
-done
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The script is called when the power management system detect a
-change in the power status (power plug in or out), and when going into
-and out of hibernation and suspend.  In addition, it collect a value
-every 10 minutes.  This make it possible for me know when the battery
-is discharging, charging and how the maximum charge change over time.
-The code for the Debian package
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/battery-status&quot;&gt;is now
-available on github&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The collected log file look like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-timestamp,manufacturer,model_name,technology,serial_number,energy_full,energy_full_design,energy_now,cycle_count,status,
-1376591133,LGC,45N1025,Li-ion,974,62800000,62160000,39050000,0,Discharging,
-[...]
-1443090528,LGC,45N1025,Li-ion,974,4900000,62160000,4900000,0,Full,
-1443090601,LGC,45N1025,Li-ion,974,4900000,62160000,4900000,0,Full,
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I wrote a small script to create a graph of the charge development
-over time.  This graph depicted above show the slow death of my laptop
-battery.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;But why is this happening?  Why are my laptop batteries always
-dying in a year or two, while the batteries of space probes and
-satellites keep working year after year.  If we are to believe
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries&quot;&gt;Battery
-University&lt;/a&gt;, the cause is me charging the battery whenever I have a
-chance, and the fix is to not charge the Lithium-ion batteries to 100%
-all the time, but to stay below 90% of full charge most of the time.
-I&#39;ve been told that the Tesla electric cars
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://my.teslamotors.com/de_CH/forum/forums/battery-charge-limit&quot;&gt;limit
-the charge of their batteries to 80%&lt;/a&gt;, with the option to charge to
-100% when preparing for a longer trip (not that I would want a car
-like Tesla where rights to privacy is abandoned, but that is another
-story), which I guess is the option we should have for laptops on
-Linux too.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Is there a good and generic way with Linux to tell the battery to
-stop charging at 80%, unless requested to charge to 100% once in
-preparation for a longer trip?  I found
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://askubuntu.com/questions/34452/how-can-i-limit-battery-charging-to-80-capacity&quot;&gt;one
-recipe on askubuntu for Ubuntu to limit charging on Thinkpad to
-80%&lt;/a&gt;, but could not get it to work (kernel module refused to
-load).&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I wonder why the battery capacity was reported to be more than 100%
-at the start.  I also wonder why the &quot;full capacity&quot; increases some
-times, and if it is possible to repeat the process to get the battery
-back to design capacity.  And I wonder if the discharge and charge
-speed change over time, or if this stay the same.  I did not yet try
-to write a tool to calculate the derivative values of the battery
-level, but suspect some interesting insights might be learned from
-those.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Update 2015-09-24: I got a tip to install the packages
-acpi-call-dkms and tlp (unfortunately missing in Debian stable)
-packages instead of the tp-smapi-dkms package I had tried to use
-initially, and use &#39;tlp setcharge 40 80&#39; to change when charging start
-and stop.  I&#39;ve done so now, but expect my existing battery is toast
-and need to be replaced.  The proposal is unfortunately Thinkpad
-specific.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;People keep asking me where to get the various forms of the book I
+published last week, the Norwegian Bokmål edition of Lawrence Lessigs
+book &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.free-culture.cc/&quot;&gt;Free Culture&lt;/a&gt;.  It was
+published on paper via lulu.com, and is also available in PDF, ePub
+and MOBI format.  I currently sell the paper edition for self cost
+from lulu.com, but might extend the distribution to book stores like
+Amazon and Barnes &amp; Noble later.  This will double the price and force
+me to make a profit from selling the book.  Anyway, here are links to
+get the book in different formats:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;

+
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Note that the MOBI version have problems with the table of content,
+at least with the viewers I have been able to test.  And the ePub file
+have several problems according to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/IDPF/epubcheck&quot;&gt;epubcheck&lt;/a&gt;, but seem
+to display fine in the viewers I have tested.  All the files needed to

+
+&lt;p&gt;The project got press coverage from the Norwegian IT news site

-               <title>Book cover for the Free Culture book finally done</title>
-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Book_cover_for_the_Free_Culture_book_finally_done.html</link>
-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Book_cover_for_the_Free_Culture_book_finally_done.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Thu, 3 Sep 2015 21:00:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Creating a good looking book cover proved harder than I expected.
-I wanted to create a cover looking similar to the original cover of
-the
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;Free
-Culture&lt;/a&gt; book we are translating to Norwegian, and I wanted it in
-vector format for high resolution printing.  But my inkscape knowledge
-were not nearly good enough to pull that off.
-
-&lt;p&gt;But thanks to the great inkscape community, I was able to wrap up
-the cover yesterday evening.  I asked on the
-&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.freenode.net/%23inkscape&quot;&gt;#inkscape IRC channel&lt;/a&gt;
-on Freenode for help and clues, and Marc Jeanmougin (Mc-) volunteered
-to try to recreate it based on the PDF of the cover from the HTML
-version.  Not only did he create a
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://marc.jeanmougin.fr/share/copy1.svg &quot;&gt;SVG document with
-the original and his vector version side by side&lt;/a&gt;, he even provided
-an &lt;a href=&quot;https://marc.jeanmougin.fr/share/out-1.ogv&quot;&gt;instruction
-video&lt;/a&gt; explaining how he did it&lt;/a&gt;.  But the instruction video is
-not easy to follow for an untrained inkscape user. The video is a
-recording on how he did it, and he is obviously very experienced as
-the menu selections are very quick and he mentioned on IRC that he did
-use some keyboard shortcuts that can&#39;t be seen on the video, but it
-give a good idea about the inkscape operations to use to create the
-stripes with the embossed copyright sign in the center.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I took his SVG file, copied the vector image and re-sized it to fit
-on the cover I was drawing.  I am happy with the end result, and the
-current english version look like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;img src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-09-03-free-culture-cover.png&quot; width=&quot;70%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;/&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I am not quite sure about the text on the back, but guess it will
-do.  I picked three quotes from the official site for the book, and
-hope it will work to trigger the interest of potential readers.  The
-Norwegian cover will look the same, but with the texts and bar code
-replaced with the Norwegian version.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The book is very close to being ready for publication, and I expect
-to upload the final draft to Lulu in the next few days and order a
-final proof reading copy to verify that everything look like it should
-before allowing everyone to order their own copy of Free Culture, in
-English or Norwegian Bokmål.  I&#39;m waiting to give the the productive
-proof readers a chance to complete their work.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Like før kl. 11 i dag leverte jeg fem esker med gaveinnpakkede
+bøker til Stortinget, for utdeling til alle stortingsrepresentanter.
+Det ble etterfulgt av følgende pressemelding.  Stor takk til NUUG for
+lån av epostliste for å sende ut pressemeldingen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Er opphavsretten for streng, spør ny bok&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I dag kommer boken «&lt;a href=&quot;http://free-culture.cc/&quot;&gt;Fri
+kultur&lt;/a&gt;» av Lawrence Lessig ut på norsk.  Boken handler om
+utviklingen og utvidelsene opphavsretten har hatt de siste 40 årene.
+Boken er i dag gitt i gave til alle stortingsrepresentantene.
+Oversetter og utgiver Petter Reinholdtsen håper Stortinget vil tenke
+seg om to ganger neste gang det er snakk om utvidelse av
+opphavsretten.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Boken forteller om hvordan store medieaktører ved hjelp av
+opphavsretten bruker teknologi til å begrense kulturen og kontrollere
+kreativiteten.  Den er skrevet av stifteren av
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://creativecommons.org/&quot;&gt;Creative Commons&lt;/a&gt;, professor
+Lawrence Lessig, som for tiden er med i kampen om å bli Demokratenes
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://lessig2016.us/&quot;&gt;presidentkandidat i USA sitt
+presidentvalg i 2016&lt;/a&gt;.  Lessig ble sist omtalt i norske medier da
+NRK i høst viste dokumentaren «Kampen for et demokratisk internett»
+som også er
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://archive.org/details/TheInternetsOwnBoyTheStoryOfAaronSwartz&quot;&gt;tilgjengelig
+fra The Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Boken beskriver hvordan opphavsrettens makt i USA har blitt
+betydelig utvidet etter 1974 langs fem kritiske akser: varighet (fra
+32 til 95 år), omfang (fra utgivere til alle), rekkevidde (gjelder nå
+enhver fremvisning via datamaskin), kontroll (avledede verk er
+definert så bredt at i praksis alle nye åndsverk risikerer søksmål fra
+en opphavsrettsinnehaver) og til sist maktkonsentrasjon og integrering
+av mediebransjen.  Den dokumenterer også hvordan medieindustrien har
+lyktes med å bruke rettsvesenet til å begrense konkurranse, og i
+praksis har skaffet seg vetorett over teknologiske nyvinninger.
+Nedlasting av fritt, lovlig og i utgangspunktet gratis materiale
+stoppes med tekniske sperrer og lobbyert lovvern av sperrene.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Utvidelsene illustreres i boken med ulike eksempler.  For eksempel
+en demonstrasjon av at Walt Disney ville ha blitt ansett som en
+opphavsrettspirat dersom han gjorde i dag det han gjorde på
+1930-tallet.  Boken beskriver hvordan vern av åndsverk er bra, men at
+mer vern ikke nødvendigvis er bedre.&lt;?p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Petter Reinholdtsen, som sammen med flere frivillige har oversatt
+boken på fritiden de siste 3 årene, håper at boken vil gjøre en
+forskjell.  «Når en vet hvordan opphavsrettens varighet i Norge, uten
+opposisjon på Stortinget, ble utvidet nok en gang i mai i fjor, og
+hvordan Norges handelspartner USA gjennom de nye handelsavtalene
+Trans-Pacific Partnership og Transatlantic Trade and Investment
+Partnership
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/10/final-leaked-tpp-text-all-we-feared&quot;&gt;ønsker
+å utvide opphavsrettens makt også i andre land&lt;/a&gt;, håper jeg at flere
+vil spørre: Er det virkelig fornuftig å gjøre de samme utvidelsene i
+Norge?», spør han.  «Jeg håper boken kan bidra til kunnskap og
+forståelse, og kan gi Stortinget et bedre grunnlag til å ta riktige
+beslutninger som ivaretar befolkningens og samfunnets interesser i
+Norge.»&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Petter Reinholdtsen er en mangeårig fri programvareutvikler som har
+vært med på å lage systemer som operativsystemet Debian, IT-løsningen
+Skolelinux, borgerportalen FiksGataMi og innsynstjenesten Mimes brønn.
+Han forteller han selv har opplevd problemene utvidet varighet,
+omfang, rekkevidde og kontroll i opphavsretten medfører og at boken
+var en oppvekker.  «Jeg håper andre finner boken like interessant som
+jeg gjorde.  Boken kan
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;lastes
+gratis ned fra github&lt;/a&gt; eller
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html&quot;&gt;kjøpes
+på papir fra lulu.com&lt;/a&gt;,» avslutter Reinholdtsen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Så får vi se om det har noen positiv effekt. :)&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Today, finally, my first printed draft edition of the Norwegian
-translation of Free Culture I have been working on for the last few
-years arrived in the mail.  I had to fake a cover to get the interior
-printed, and the exterior of the book look awful, but that is
-irrelevant at this point.  I asked for a printed pocket book version
-to get an idea about the font sizes and paper format as well as how
-good the figures and images look in print, but also to test what the
-pocket book version would look like.  After receiving the 500 page
-pocket book, it became obvious to me that that pocket book size is too
-small for this book.  I believe the book is too thick, and several
-tables and figures do not look good in the size they get with that
-small page sizes.  I believe I will go with the 5.5x8.5 inch size
-instead.  A surprise discovery from the paper version was how bad the
-URLs look in print.  They are very hard to read in the colophon page.
-The URLs are red in the PDF, but light gray on paper.  I need to
-change the color of links somehow to look better.  But there is a
-printed book in my hand, and it feels great. :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Now I only need to fix the cover, wrap up the postscript with the
-store behind the book, and collect the last corrections from the proof
-readers before the book is ready for proper printing.  Cover artists
-willing to work for free and create a Creative Commons licensed vector
-file looking similar to the original is most welcome, as my skills as
-a graphics designer are mostly missing.&lt;/p&gt;

+
+&lt;p&gt;I 2004, mens &lt;a href=&quot;https://creativecommons.org/&quot;&gt;Creative
+Commons-bevegelsen&lt;/a&gt; vokste frem, skrev bevegelsens stifter Lawrence
+Lessig boken
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_(book)&quot;&gt;Free
+Culture&lt;/a&gt; for å forklare problemene med økene åndsverksregulering og
+for å foreslå noen løsninger.  Jeg leste boken den gangen, og den både
+inspirerte meg og endret på hvordan jeg så på opphavsrettslovigving.
+Jeg skulle ønske flere folk leste denne boken.  Den gir en god
+gjennomgang av hvordan økende åndsverksregulering skader både
+nyskapning og kulturlivet, og skisserer hvordan både lovgivere og oss
+vanlige borgere kan bidra for å få slutt på dette.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Derfor bestemte jeg meg sommeren 2012 for å oversette den til norsk
+bokmål og gjøre den tilgjengelig for de blant mine venner og familie
+som foretrekker å lese bøker på norsk.  Jeg oversatte boken ved hjelp
+av docbook og en gettext PO-fil, og endte opp med to utgaver, en på
+norsk og en på engelsk.  Den engelske publiserte jeg i forrige uke, og
+den norske utgaven på papir
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html&quot;&gt;er
+nå klar for salg&lt;/a&gt;.  Jeg fikk heldigvis hjelp med oversetting og
+korrekturlesing av den norske utgaven fra en rekke frivillige.  Se
+side 245 for en komplett liste.  Slik ser omslaget ut:
+
+&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;center&quot; src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-10-28-free-culture-norwegian-published-cover.png&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I tillegg til den norske og engelske utgaven holder vi på med en
+fransk utgave.  Den koordineres av dblatex-utvikleren Benoît Guillon,
+og oversettelsen var komplett denne uka men må korrekturleses før den
+kan gis ut.  Flere frivillige trengs her, så ta kontakt med Benoît
+hvis du vil bidra.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Boken er også tilgjengelig i PDF, ePub og MOBI-format fra
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;min
+github-prosjektside&lt;/a&gt;.  Merk at ePub og MOBI-utgavene har noen
+formatteringsproblemer som jeg tror kommer av feil i docbook-verktøyet
+dbtoepub (Debian BTS-rapporter
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795842&quot;&gt;#795842&lt;/a&gt;
+og
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796871&quot;&gt;#796871&lt;/a&gt;),
+men jeg har ikke tatt meg tid til å undersøke problemene.  For de som
+vil ha elektronisk kopi anbefaler jeg å bruke PDF- og ePub-utgaven i
+denne omgang, da de ser ut til å hånderes bra av de fremviserne jeg
+har tilgjengelig.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Etter at oversettelsen til bokmål var ferdig klarte jeg å overtale
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuugfoundation.no/&quot;&gt;NUUG Foundation&lt;/a&gt; til å
+sponse trykking av boken.  Det er årsaken til at stiftelsens logo er
+på baksiden av omslaget.  Jeg er svært takknemlig for dette, og bruker
+bidraget til å gi en kopi av den norske utgaven til alle
+Stortingsrepresentanter og andre beslutningstakere her i Norge.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Typesetting a book is harder than I hoped.  As the translation is
-mostly done, and a volunteer proof reader was going to check the text
-on paper, it was time this summer to focus on formatting my translated
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.docbook.org/&quot;&gt;docbook&lt;/a&gt; based version of the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://free-culture.cc/&quot;&gt;Free Culture&lt;/a&gt; book by Lawrence
-Lessig.  I&#39;ve been trying to get both docboox-xsl+fop and dblatex to
-give me a good looking PDF, but in the end I went with dblatex, because
-its Debian maintainer and upstream developer were responsive and very
-helpful in solving my formatting challenges.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Last night, I finally managed to create a PDF that no longer made
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/&quot;&gt;Lulu.com&lt;/a&gt; complain after uploading,
-and I ordered a text version of the book on paper.  It is lacking a
-proper book cover and is not tagged with the correct ISBN number, but
-should give me an idea what the finished book will look like.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Instead of using Lulu, I did consider printing the book using
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.createspace.com/&quot;&gt;CreateSpace&lt;/a&gt;, but ended up
-using Lulu because it had smaller book size options (CreateSpace seem
-to lack pocket book with extended distribution).  I looked for a
-similar service in Norway, but have not seen anything so far.  Please
-let me know if I am missing out on something here.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;But I still struggle to decide the book size.  Should I go for
-pocket book (4.25x6.875 inches / 10.8x17.5 cm) with 556 pages, Digest
-(5.5x8.5 inches / 14x21.6 cm) with 323 pages or US Trade (6x8 inches /
-15.3x22.9 cm) with 280 pages?  Fewer pager give a cheaper book, and a
-smaller book is easier to carry around.  The test book I ordered was
-pocket book sized, to give me an idea how well that fit in my hand,
-but I suspect I will end up using a digest sized book in the end to
-bring the prize down further.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;My biggest challenge at the moment is making nice cover art.  My
-inkscape skills are not yet up to the task of replicating the original
-cover in SVG format.  I also need to figure out what to write about
-the book on the back (will most likely use the same text as the
-description on web based book stores).  I would love help with this,
-if you are willing to license the art source and final version using
-the same CC license as the book.  My artistic skills are not really up
-to the task.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I plan to publish the book in both English and Norwegian and on
-paper, in PDF form as well as EPUB and MOBI format.  The current
-status can as usual be found on
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;github&lt;/a&gt;
-in the archive/ directory.  So far I have spent all time on making the
-PDF version look good.  Someone should probably do the same with the
-dbtoepub generated e-book.  Help is definitely needed here, as I
-expect to run out of steem before I find time to improve the epub
-formatting.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Please let me know via github if you find typos in the book or
-discover translations that should be improved.  The final proof
-reading is being done right now, and I expect to publish the finished
-result in a few months.&lt;/p&gt;

+here to buy the book&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In 2004, as the &lt;a href=&quot;https://creativecommons.org/&quot;&gt;Creative Commons
+movement&lt;/a&gt; gained momentum, its creator Lawrence Lessig wrote the
+book &lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_(book)&quot;&gt;Free
+Culture&lt;/a&gt; to explain the problems with increasing copyright
+regulation and suggest some solutions.  I read the book back then and
+was very moved by it.  Reading the book inspired me and changed the
+way I looked on copyright law, and I would love it if more people
+would read it too.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Because of this, I decided in the summer of 2012 to translate it to
+Norwegian Bokmål and publish it for those of my friends and family
+that prefer to read books in Norwegian.  I translated the book using
+docbook and a gettext PO file, and a byproduct of this process is a
+new edition of the English original.  I&#39;ve been in touch with the
+author during by work, and he said it was fine with him if I also
+published an English version.  So I decided to do so.  Today, I made
+this edition
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/free-culture/paperback/product-22402863.html&quot;&gt;available
+for sale on Lulu.com&lt;/a&gt;, for those interested in a paper book.  This
+is the cover:
+
+&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/free-culture/paperback/product-22402863.html&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;center&quot; src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-10-23-free-culture-english-published-cover.png&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Norwegian Bokmål version will be available for purchase in a
+few days.  I also plan to publish a French version in a few weeks or
+months, depending on the amount of people with knowledge of French to
+join the translation project.  So far there is only one active
+person, but the French book is almost completely translated but
+need some proof reading.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The book is also available in PDF, ePub and MOBI formats from
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;my
+github project page&lt;/a&gt;.  Note the ePub and MOBI versions have some
+formatting problems I believe is due to bugs in the docbook tool
+dbtoepub (Debian BTS issues
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795842&quot;&gt;#795842&lt;/a&gt;
+and
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796871&quot;&gt;#796871&lt;/a&gt;),
+but I have not taken the time to investigate.  I recommend the PDF and
+ePub version for now, as they seem to show up fine in the viewers I
+have available.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;After the translation to Norwegian Bokmål was complete, I was able
+to secure some sponsoring from
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuugfoundation.no/&quot;&gt;the NUUG Foundation&lt;/a&gt; to
+print the book.  This is the reason their logo is located on the back
+cover. I am very grateful for their contribution, and will use it to
+give a copy of the Norwegian edition to members of the Norwegian
+Parliament and other decision makers here in Norway.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <title>Typesetting DocBook footnotes as endnotes with dblatex</title>
-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Typesetting_DocBook_footnotes_as_endnotes_with_dblatex.html</link>
-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Typesetting_DocBook_footnotes_as_endnotes_with_dblatex.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Thu, 16 Jul 2015 18:10:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I&#39;m still working on the Norwegian version of the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://free-culture.cc/&quot;&gt;Free Culture book by Lawrence
-Lessig&lt;/a&gt;, and is now working on the final typesetting and layout.
-One of the features I want to get the structure similar to the
-original book is to typeset the footnotes as endnotes in the notes
-chapter.  Based on the
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/685063&quot;&gt;feedback from the Debian
-maintainer and the dblatex developer&lt;/a&gt;, I came up with this recipe I
-would like to share with you.  The proposal was to create a new LaTeX
-class file and add the LaTeX code there, but this is not always
-practical, when I want to be able to replace the class using a make
-file variable.  So my proposal misuses the latex.begindocument XSL
-parameter value, to get a small fragment into the correct location in
-the generated LaTeX File.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;First, decide where in the DocBook document to place the endnotes,
-and add this text there:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-&amp;lt;?latex \theendnotes ?&amp;gt;
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Next, create a xsl stylesheet file dblatex-endnotes.xsl to add the
-code needed to add the endnote instructions in the preamble of the
-generated LaTeX document, with content like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-&amp;lt;?xml version=&#39;1.0&#39;?&amp;gt;
-&amp;lt;xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl=&quot;http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform&quot; version=&#39;1.0&#39;&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;xsl:param name=&quot;latex.begindocument&quot;&amp;gt;
-    &amp;lt;xsl:text&amp;gt;
-\usepackage{endnotes}
-\let\footnote=\endnote
-\def\enoteheading{\mbox{}\par\vskip-\baselineskip }
-\begin{document}
-    &amp;lt;/xsl:text&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;/xsl:param&amp;gt;
-&amp;lt;/xsl:stylesheet&amp;gt;
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Finally, load this xsl file when running dblatex, for example like
-this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-dblatex --xsl-user=dblatex-endnotes.xsl freeculture.nb.xml
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The end result can be seen on github, where
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig&quot;&gt;my
-book project&lt;/a&gt; is located.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Bitcoin er i litt vinden i Norge for tiden, med
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nrk.no/ytring/en-digital-robin-hood-1.12604681&quot;&gt;kronikk
+om bitcoin-overføringer på tvers av landegrensene&lt;/A&gt; hos NRK Ytring
+for to dager siden og
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://tv.nrk.no/program/KOID25009815/kapital-bitcoin-en-digital-pengebinge&quot;&gt;dokumentar
+om bitcoin&lt;/a&gt; på NRK 2 i forgårs og i går.  I den sammenhengen er det
+spesielt hyggelig med en gladnyhet fra EU om Bitcoin.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I dag konkluderte EU-domstolen at
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?text=&amp;docid=170305&amp;pageIndex=0&amp;doclang=en&amp;mode=req&amp;dir=&amp;occ=first&amp;part=1&amp;cid=604079&quot;&gt;Bitcoin-kjøp
+fra Bitcoin-børser ikke er MVA-pliktig&lt;/a&gt; (sak  C‑264/14).  Fant
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/10/22/us-bitcoin-tax-eu-idUSKCN0SG0X920151022&quot;&gt;nyheten
+først hos Reuters&lt;/a&gt;, etter tips fra innehaveren av
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bitmynt.no/&quot;&gt;Bitmynt&lt;/a&gt;.  EU-domstolens avgjørelse
+er stikk i strid med
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skatteetaten.no/no/Radgiver/Rettskilder/Uttalelser/Prinsipputtalelser/Bruk-av-bitcoins--skatte--og-avgiftsmessige-konsekvenser/&quot;&gt;annonseringen
+fra Skatteetaten i 2013&lt;/a&gt;, der de konkluderte med at bitcoin er et
+«formuesobjekter» som det skulle betales mva på ved kjøp og salg.
+Dermed la Skatteetaten opp til dobbel MVA-betaling hvis en kjøpte noe
+med Bitcoin fra Norge (først mva på kjøp av Bitcoin, deretter mva på
+det en kjøper med Bitcoin).  Jeg lurer på om denne avgjørelsen får
+Skatteetaten til å bytte mening.  Gleder meg til fortsettelsen.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I går fikk vi endelig lansert en norsk version av mySocietys
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/&quot;&gt;WhatDoTheyKnow&lt;/a&gt;.
-Tjenesten heter Mimes brønn, og ble
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuug.no/news/NUUG_lanserer_innsynstjenesten_Mimes_Br_nn.shtml&quot;&gt;annonsert
-av NUUG&lt;/a&gt; via blogg, epost og twitter til NUUG-assosierte personer.
-Det har tatt noen år, men de siste dagene fikk vi endelig tid til å få
-på plass de siste bitene.  Vi er to, Gorm og meg selv, som har vært
-primus motor for det hele, men vi har fått hjelp med oversettelser og
-oppsett fra mange flere.  Jeg vil si tusen takk til hver og en av dem,
-og er veldig fornøyd med at vi klarte å få tjenesten opp å kjøre før
-ferietiden slo inn for fullt.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Vi er usikker på hvor mye belastning den virtuelle maskinen der
-tjenesten kjører klarer, så vi har lansert litt i det stille og ikke
-til for mange folk for å se hvordan maskinen klarer seg over sommeren,
-før vi går mer aktivt ut og annonserer til høsten.  Ta en titt, og se
-om du kanskje har et spørsmål til det offentlige som er egnet å sende
-inn via Mimes brønn.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Hvis du lurer på hva i alle dager en slik tjenestes kan brukes til,
-anbefaler jeg deg å se
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://beta.frikanalen.no/video/625321&quot;&gt;TED-foredraget til
-Heather Brook&lt;/a&gt; om hvordan hun brukte WhatDoTheyKnow til å lære
-hvordan offentlige midler ble misbrukt.  Det er en inspirerende
-historie.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Last year, &lt;a href=&quot;https://lessig2016.us/&quot;&gt;US president candidate
+in the Democratic Party&lt;/a&gt; Lawrence interviewed Edward Snowden.  The
+one hour interview was
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Sr96TFQQE&quot;&gt;published by
+Harvard Law School 2014-10-23 on Youtube&lt;/a&gt;, and the meeting took
+place 2014-10-20.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The questions are very good, and there is lots of useful
+information to be learned and very interesting issues to think about
+being raised.  Please check it out.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/o_Sr96TFQQE&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I find it especially interesting to hear again that Snowden did try
+to bring up his reservations through the official channels without any
+luck.  It is in sharp contrast to the answers made 2013-11-06 by the
+Norwegian prime minister Erna Solberg to the Norwegian Parliament,
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://tale.holderdeord.no/speeches/s131106/68&quot;&gt;claiming
+Snowden is no Whistle-Blower&lt;/a&gt; because he should have taken up his
+concerns internally and using official channels.  It make me sad
+that this is the political leadership we have here in Norway.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;After asking the Norwegian Broadcasting Company (NRK)
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Hva_gj_r_at_NRK_kan_distribuere_H_264_video_uten_patentavtale_med_MPEG_LA_.html&quot;&gt;why
-they can broadcast and stream H.264 video without an agreement with
-the MPEG LA&lt;/a&gt;, I was wiser, but still confused.  So I asked MPEG LA
-if their understanding matched that of NRK.  As far as I can tell, it
-does not.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I started by asking for more information about the various
-licensing classes and what exactly is covered by the &quot;Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video&quot; class that NRK pointed me at to explain why NRK
-did not need a license for streaming H.264 video:
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;According to
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mpegla.com/Lists/MPEG%20LA%20News%20List/Attachments/226/n-10-02-02.pdf&quot;&gt;a
-MPEG LA press release dated 2010-02-02&lt;/a&gt;, there is no charge when
-using MPEG AVC/H.264 according to the terms of &quot;Internet Broadcast AVC
-Video&quot;.  I am trying to understand exactly what the terms of &quot;Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video&quot; is, and wondered if you could help me.  What
-exactly is covered by these terms, and what is not?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The only source of more information I have been able to find is a
-PDF named
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/avc/Documents/avcweb.pdf&quot;&gt;AVC
-Patent Portfolio License Briefing&lt;/a&gt;, which states this about the
-fees:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
- &lt;li&gt;Where End User pays for AVC Video
-  &lt;ul&gt;
-   &lt;li&gt;Subscription (not limited by title) – 100,000 or fewer
-     subscribers/yr = no royalty; &amp;gt; 100,000 to 250,000 subscribers/yr =
-     $25,000; &amp;gt;250,000 to 500,000 subscribers/yr = $50,000; &amp;gt;500,000 to
-     1M subscribers/yr = $75,000; &amp;gt;1M subscribers/yr = $100,000&lt;/li&gt;
-
-   &lt;li&gt;Title-by-Title - 12 minutes or less = no royalty; &amp;gt;12 minutes in
-     length = lower of (a) 2% or (b) $0.02 per title&lt;/li&gt;
-  &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
-
- &lt;li&gt;Where remuneration is from other sources
-  &lt;ul&gt;
-   &lt;li&gt;Free Television - (a) one-time $2,500 per transmission encoder or
-     (b) annual fee starting at $2,500 for &amp;gt; 100,000 HH rising to
-     maximum $10,000 for &amp;gt;1,000,000 HH&lt;/li&gt;
-
-   &lt;li&gt;Internet Broadcast AVC Video (not title-by-title, not subscription)
-     – no royalty for life of the AVC Patent Portfolio License&lt;/li&gt;
-  &lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;/ul&gt;

+Internet&#39;s Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz&lt;/a&gt;&quot; is both inspiring
+and depressing at the same time.  The work of Aaron Swartz has
+inspired me in my work, and I am grateful of all the improvements he
+was able to initiate or complete.  I wish I am able to do as much good
+in my life as he did in his.  Every minute of this 1:45 long movie is
+inspiring in documenting how much impact a single person can have on
+improving the society and this world.  And it is depressing in
+documenting how the law enforcement of USA (and other countries) is
+corrupted to a point where they can push a bright kid to his death for
+downloading too many scientific articles.  Aaron is dead.  Let us all
+weep.&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

-&lt;p&gt;Am I correct in assuming that the four categories listed is the
-categories used when selecting licensing terms, and that &quot;Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video&quot; is the category for things that do not fall into
-one of the other three categories?  Can you point me to a good source
-explaining what is ment by &quot;title-by-title&quot; and &quot;Free Television&quot; in
-the license terms for AVC/H.264?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Will a web service providing H.264 encoded video content in a
-&quot;video on demand&quot; fashing similar to Youtube and Vimeo, where no
-subscription is required and no payment is required from end users to
-get access to the videos, fall under the terms of the &quot;Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video&quot;, ie no royalty for life of the AVC Patent
-Portfolio license?  Does it matter if some users are subscribed to get
-access to personalized services?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Note, this request and all answers will be published on the
-Internet.&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The answer came quickly from Benjamin J. Myers, Licensing Associate
-with the MPEG LA:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;Thank you for your message and for your interest in MPEG LA.  We
-appreciate hearing from you and I will be happy to assist you.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;As you are aware, MPEG LA offers our AVC Patent Portfolio License
-which provides coverage under patents that are essential for use of
-the AVC/H.264 Standard (MPEG-4 Part 10).  Specifically, coverage is
-provided for end products and video content that make use of AVC/H.264
-technology.  Accordingly, the party offering such end products and
-video to End Users concludes the AVC License and is responsible for
-paying the applicable royalties.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Regarding Internet Broadcast AVC Video, the AVC License generally
-defines such content to be video that is distributed to End Users over
-the Internet free-of-charge.  Therefore, if a party offers a service
-which allows users to upload AVC/H.264 video to its website, and such
-AVC Video is delivered to End Users for free, then such video would
-receive coverage under the sublicense for Internet Broadcast AVC
-Video, which is not subject to any royalties for the life of the AVC
-License.  This would also apply in the scenario where a user creates a
-free online account in order to receive a customized offering of free
-AVC Video content.  In other words, as long as the End User is given
-access to or views AVC Video content at no cost to the End User, then
-no royalties would be payable under our AVC License.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, if End Users pay for access to AVC Video for a
-specific period of time (e.g., one month, one year, etc.), then such
-video would constitute Subscription AVC Video.  In cases where AVC
-Video is delivered to End Users on a pay-per-view basis, then such
-content would constitute Title-by-Title AVC Video.  If a party offers
-Subscription or Title-by-Title AVC Video to End Users, then they would
-be responsible for paying the applicable royalties you noted below.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Finally, in the case where AVC Video is distributed for free
-through an &quot;over-the-air, satellite and/or cable transmission&quot;, then
-such content would constitute Free Television AVC Video and would be
-subject to the applicable royalties.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;For your reference, I have attached
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-07-07-mpegla.pdf&quot;&gt;a
-.pdf copy of the AVC License&lt;/a&gt;. You will find the relevant
-sublicense information regarding AVC Video in Sections 2.2 through
-2.5, and the corresponding royalties in Section 3.1.2 through 3.1.4.
-You will also find the definitions of Title-by-Title AVC Video,
-Subscription AVC Video, Free Television AVC Video, and Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video in Section 1 of the License.  Please note that the
-electronic copy is provided for informational purposes only and cannot
-be used for execution.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I hope the above information is helpful.  If you have additional
-questions or need further assistance with the AVC License, please feel
-free to contact me directly.&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Having a fresh copy of the license text was useful, and knowing
-that the definition of Title-by-Title required payment per title made
-me aware that my earlier understanding of that phrase had been wrong.
-But I still had a few questions:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;I have a small followup question.  Would it be possible for me to get
-a license with MPEG LA even if there are no royalties to be paid?  The
-reason I ask, is that some video related products have a copyright
-clause limiting their use without a license with MPEG LA.  The clauses
-typically look similar to this:
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-  This product is licensed under the AVC patent portfolio license for
-  the personal and non-commercial use of a consumer to (a) encode
-  video in compliance with the AVC standard (&quot;AVC video&quot;) and/or (b)
-  decode AVC video that was encoded by a consumer engaged in a
-  personal and non-commercial activity and/or AVC video that was
-  obtained from a video provider licensed to provide AVC video. No
-  license is granted or shall be implied for any other use. additional
-  information may be obtained from MPEG LA L.L.C.
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;It is unclear to me if this clause mean that I need to enter into
-an agreement with MPEG LA to use the product in question, even if
-there are no royalties to be paid to MPEG LA.  I suspect it will
-differ depending on the jurisdiction, and mine is Norway.  What is
-MPEG LAs view on this?&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;According to the answer, MPEG LA believe those using such tools for
-non-personal or commercial use need a license with them:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;With regard to the Notice to Customers, I would like to begin by
-clarifying that the Notice from Section 7.1 of the AVC License
-reads:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;THIS PRODUCT IS LICENSED UNDER THE AVC PATENT PORTFOLIO LICENSE FOR
-THE PERSONAL USE OF A CONSUMER OR OTHER USES IN WHICH IT DOES NOT
-RECEIVE REMUNERATION TO (i) ENCODE VIDEO IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE AVC
-STANDARD (&quot;AVC VIDEO&quot;) AND/OR (ii) DECODE AVC VIDEO THAT WAS ENCODED
-BY A CONSUMER ENGAGED IN A PERSONAL ACTIVITY AND/OR WAS OBTAINED FROM
-A VIDEO PROVIDER LICENSED TO PROVIDE AVC VIDEO. NO LICENSE IS GRANTED
-OR SHALL BE IMPLIED FOR ANY OTHER USE. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MAY BE
-OBTAINED FROM MPEG LA, L.L.C. SEE HTTP://WWW.MPEGLA.COM&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The Notice to Customers is intended to inform End Users of the
-personal usage rights (for example, to watch video content) included
-with the product they purchased, and to encourage any party using the
-product for commercial purposes to contact MPEG LA in order to become
-licensed for such use (for example, when they use an AVC Product to
-deliver Title-by-Title, Subscription, Free Television or Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video to End Users, or to re-Sell a third party&#39;s AVC
-Product as their own branded AVC Product).&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Therefore, if a party is to be licensed for its use of an AVC
-Product to Sell AVC Video on a Title-by-Title, Subscription, Free
-Television or Internet Broadcast basis, that party would need to
-conclude the AVC License, even in the case where no royalties were
-payable under the License.  On the other hand, if that party (either a
-Consumer or business customer) simply uses an AVC Product for their
-own internal purposes and not for the commercial purposes referenced
-above, then such use would be included in the royalty paid for the AVC
-Products by the licensed supplier.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Finally, I note that our AVC License provides worldwide coverage in
-countries that have AVC Patent Portfolio Patents, including
-Norway.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I hope this clarification is helpful.  If I may be of any further
-assistance, just let me know.&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The mentioning of Norwegian patents made me a bit confused, so I
-asked for more information:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;But one minor question at the end.  If I understand you correctly,
-you state in the quote above that there are patents in the AVC Patent
-Portfolio that are valid in Norway.  This make me believe I read the
-list available from &amp;lt;URL:
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/AVC/Pages/PatentList.aspx&quot;&gt;http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/AVC/Pages/PatentList.aspx&lt;/a&gt;
-&amp;gt; incorrectly, as I believed the &quot;NO&quot; prefix in front of patents
-were Norwegian patents, and the only one I could find under Mitsubishi
-Electric Corporation expired in 2012.  Which patents are you referring
-to that are relevant for Norway?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Again, the quick answer explained how to read the list of patents
-in that list:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Your understanding is correct that the last AVC Patent Portfolio
-Patent in Norway expired on 21 October 2012.  Therefore, where AVC
-Video is both made and Sold in Norway after that date, then no
-royalties would be payable for such AVC Video under the AVC License.
-With that said, our AVC License provides historic coverage for AVC
-Products and AVC Video that may have been manufactured or Sold before
-the last Norwegian AVC patent expired.  I would also like to clarify
-that coverage is provided for the country of manufacture and the
-country of Sale that has active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Therefore, if a party offers AVC Products or AVC Video for Sale in
-a country with active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents (for example,
-Sweden, Denmark, Finland, etc.), then that party would still need
-coverage under the AVC License even if such products or video are
-initially made in a country without active AVC Patent Portfolio
-Patents (for example, Norway).  Similarly, a party would need to
-conclude the AVC License if they make AVC Products or AVC Video in a
-country with active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents, but eventually Sell
-such AVC Products or AVC Video in a country without active AVC Patent
-Portfolio Patents.&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;As far as I understand it, MPEG LA believe anyone using Adobe
-Premiere and other video related software with a H.264 distribution
-license need a license agreement with MPEG LA to use such tools for
-anything non-private or commercial, while it is OK to set up a
-Youtube-like service as long as no-one pays to get access to the
-content.  I still have no clear idea how this applies to Norway, where
-none of the patents MPEG LA is licensing are valid.  Will the
-copyright terms take precedence or can those terms be ignored because
-the patents are not valid in Norway?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;The movie is also available on
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXr-2hwTk58&quot;&gt;Youtube&lt;/a&gt;.  I
+wish there were Norwegian subtitles available, so I could show it to
+my parents.&lt;/p&gt;
