Obviously, the definition retained at present is a nonsense in itself and shows just what a poor understanding French MPs have of operating systems and IT in general (or rather what they have been cleverly misled to understand). The current French government needs money, big time - the mobile/embedded market is still fairly bouyant - what better way to generate a revenue stream to fill the depleted coffers ? ;-) Alex -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
