An anonymous reader writes As the support for the Microsoft (MS) Windows XP service is terminated this year, the government will try to invigorate open source software in order to solve the problem of dependency on certain software. By 2020 when the support of the Windows 7 service is terminated, it is planning to switch to open OS and minimize damages. Industry insiders pointed out that the standard e-document format must be established and shared as an open source before open source software is invigorated. A similar suggestion that Korea might embrace more open source (but couched more cautiously, with more "should" and "may") is reported on the news page of the EU's program on Interoperability Solutions for European Public Administrations, based on a workshop presentation earlier this month by Korea's Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning. (And at a smaller but still huge scale, the capitol city of Seoul appears to be going in for open source software in a big way, too.)

Why The Korean Government Could Go Open Source By 2020
Europe and China are gaining the upper hand in the race to bounce perfectly secure messages off satellites in low Earth orbit.
One of the great benefits of quantum communication is the ability to send messages from one point in space to another with perfect security. Not so great is the fact that so-called quantum cryptography is limited to distances of around 100 kilometers.
Thats because over longer distances, photons tend to be absorbed by the glass in fiber-optic cables and by the atmosphere when beamed from one location to another. That causes errors that are too great for perfect privacy.
But there is a potential way around thisto send photons to an orbiting spacecraft, which then retransmits the message securely when it is over another part of the planet. Thats possible because the photons traveling straight up only have to negotiate a few tens of kilometers of the atmosphere before reaching space.
So its not surprising that governments all over the world are keen on exploiting space-based quantum cryptography. Indeed, last year we reported on a Chinese team that had successfully reflected individual photons off an orbiting satellite, to simulate a satellite sending photons to the ground.
The Chinese team said the demonstration was a crucial step toward space-based quantum cryptography. However, the ability to send single photons from orbit and receive them on the ground is not enough.
A key factor is the error rate in this process. If the error rate is above 11 percent, quantum cryptography does not work.
So an important unanswered question is whether the error rate is small enough.
Today, we get an answer thanks to the work of Giuseppe Vallone at the University of Padova in Italy and a few pals. These guys have bounced polarized photons off a number of different satellites and measured the error rate in the photons that return to Earth.

You know what they say about the relative strangeness of fiction and reality.
And now, Julian Assange is slated to model(from the Ecuadorian Embassy, though) as part of London Fashion Week. Ben Westwood, designer and son of Vivienne Westwood, tapped the Wikileaker, saying he hoped to keep him in the public eye and use him as fashion inspiration.
Apparently the fashions will be inspired both by Clint Eastwood and by Assanges own look the beret did not go unremarked.
So this is happening, it seems.
If Whistleblowers and Newsmakers FromTwo-ish Years Ago And Today are going to become fashion inspirations, here are a few morelookbooks:
The Look:

The model: Julian Assange
Here, Julian has accessorized with a speech, a classic and versatile accessory that goes with almost any outfit, including this fetching coat and scarf. You can see why Benedict Cumberbatch, also known for his dramatic coats, felt comfortable stepping into Julians shoes for a film role.
How to get this look: Do something elaborate to your hair. Wear berets a lot. Found Wikileaks. Escape to Ecuador to avoid being extradited to Sweden.

Julian Assange, runway model? Some lookbooks, from Snowden ...
Julian Assange may not have intended to make a name for himself in fashion, but the WikiLeaks founder has found friends in the industry.
Two years ago, Dame Vivienne Westwood crafted an "I am Julian Assange" t-shirt to close her fashion show in London. The piece was said to demonstrate her support for the controversial public figure.
Now, her son has done one better. Ben Westwood has tapped Assange himself to appear in his September runway show alongside six other models. The collection will feature ensembles inspired by Clint Eastwood's spaghetti western films, a soundtrack lifted from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and at least one custom "Julian Assange print" garment. George Clooney and fiancee Amal Alamuddin have reportedly been invited to attend.
Westwood told the Daily Mail that he conceived of the unlikely gig to "highlight Julian Assange's plight" and ensure that Assange does not "slip into obscurity" more than two years after he first sought asylum at the Ecuadorian Embassy.
"What happened to him is totally unfair," Westwood said.
As Assange must stay put in order to evade extradition to Sweden on charges of sexual assault, Westwood will bring the catwalk to his de facto residence in London. And while press conferences held at the building suggest a challenging aesthetic, low ceilings, moderate acoustics, and fluorescent lighting sound very "bureaucracy chic" to us.

Julian Assange: WikiLeaks founder, lightning rod, and now... fashion model?
Apparently so. According to multiple reports, he's been asked to make his modeling debut during London Fashion Week in a show by designer Ben Westwood. And he won't have to risk arrest to work the catwalk.
The September show will take place at the Ecuadorian embassy, where Assange has for two years sought political asylum from a British court order to extradite him to Sweden over sexual assault allegations.
Westwood -- who is not listed under designers on the official London Fashion Week site -- found inspiration for his upcoming collection from "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly," a '60s Italian Western in which Clint Eastwood plays an enigmatic loner.
"My view about Julian is that he is a popular hero and he's done a great deal to change public opinion," Westwood said in a statement. "I think it's a citizen's duty to stand up for justice and freedom of speech. I want to highlight Julian Assange's plight."
Assange's WikiLeaks site has published more than 8 million anonymously leaked documents since 2006, including a trove of classified information.
Westwood, a photographer known for his erotic shots, is the oldest son of famed designer Dame Vivienne Westwood, also an Assange supporter. She created an "I am Julian Assange" T-shirt bearing his image and wore it when visiting Assange at the embassy in 2012. The shirt also appeared in one of her own runway shows.
Assange, 42, will reportedly appear in the London Fashion Week fringe event along with six other models. Still, fashion magazines shouldn't set aside space for an Assange photo spread just yet.
According to a New York Times fashion blog, Richard Hillgrove, a London publicist working on the September Ben Westwood show, has said the Assange modeling gig is still under discussion.
