Quite possibly it will have some potential effect on me, since I work for a power company that depends on a US government agency for much of our power. Any breach that impacts the generation or transmission facilities we depend on should trigger some kind of notice to us, though our own systems are pretty bulletproof. For one thing, our SCADA systems are physically and logically separate from the Internet - that's the ultimate security. But our suppliers are all tied into the network, and therefore vulnerable. In a crisis, we have access to alternate sources of electricity that can be manually controlled with minimal effort, so we'll actually fare better than many much larger utilities.

So, you think you'll meet all of the security mandates to be proposed next year?
My worry is the amount that it will cost for every single infrastructure company to get up to speed and meet the, as of yet, unknown requirements.
I smell a load of moolah to be made in security consulting next year. I'll rewatch the movies Sneakers, Hackers, and The Net and update my resume.

I don't really see a burden for us, as this order is directed to government agencies who provide services to users. In this situation, we're the users. Besides, there's few regulations that can be enforced against an Indian tribe without a major court battle. I don't see that happening.

All of the FEDS mandates, contract rates in Washington, D.C. are abysmal from what I see advertised. Really, laughable so I doubt security will really happen on the capital when the work is being performed by the type of contractors that accept the lowest rates in the nation in one of the most expensive cities.

First off, if I should put this somewhere else, tell me and I will move the message.
Now to the question:
I am wanting to embed a help viewer of some sort in one of my applications, and I would like to know what you guys would recommend. I am using C# 4.0 for the project.
I also would like to know what end-user help designers/compilers/etc you guys like.
I would prefer free/open source software, as I don't have much money.
If push comes to shove, I will create end user help documents and serve them from an embedded CassiniDev server to the user's browser, but I would like an embedded solution of some sort. And no, I don't want to use a CHM file.

Microsoft came up with a pretty good solution to this problem about a decade and a half ago. Have you thought about using a .CHM file?

Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

We offer structured documentation creation and publication services both online using the latest technologies (see demo[^]) or embedded (see the doc inside the product of my signature). Since it is structured, you can "load and display" any part of the document when you need them, which is useful in building context sensitive help or in mobile viewing devices of today. A user can also build multiple languages document easily. However, it is not offered as free service ...
Just for your information since the lacking of proper technical documentation tools has also bothered us for a long time. And we created our own.

Do you think if ugly girls make an ugly face, they'll come out pretty?

What it should have said:
First picture: pretty girl (some of them, at least).
Second picture: what she'll look like after you get married.

Second picture is probably pretty close to the childbirth face. Probably a good public service for birth control use.

"Not in a professional studio" would have sufficed, rather than a list of where they were taken.

They aren't pulling faces. It's beer goggles. The pictures on the left are the drunk view. The pictures on the right are the sober pictures.
