Thanks. I am always amazed at how much we scruffy Free Software types get treated as VIPs in some, but not all, places. I guess places like Nicaragua are keen to escape the proprietary software yoke. Even so I feel a bit of a fraud sometimes, when really such a big part of our motivation is just to build the system that we want to use ourselves. Helping to rescue the world from software bondage is a certainly something I really like to feel good about but we shouldn't let it all go to our head!
