Facebook Pleases the Developer Gods....

Facebook has been ordered again by the developer gods to surrender their full source code to Leader Technologies over a patent infringement, and this time, they must comply. By the end of this month they have to hand over their full source code to the company, + related technical documents.

The funny part here is that Facebook actually is now releasing an open source web server called Tornado that will let developers to create apps that will allow the user to post updates in real time. It's written in Python and is designed to be able to process thousands of simultaneous connections efficiently. Basically they want to be more like the Twitter system of updates.
