vivek, did you see the movie, 'field of dreams'? the greatest dialog in the movie: "If you do it, they will come." i designed the logo and all the graphic design for my own bliss. key operative words ; 'MY OWN BLISS". i will print one and wear it. for my own bliss. i have given it to others if they wish to share the design. but that is their freedom, their choice. abhishek loved the design and stuff, and said he'd go and just thermal-print one for himself, for his own bliss. linus coded linux, not to topple m$, but following his own bliss. i wrote the '7 steps' documents, for my own bliss. so my slogan: follow your own bliss. if the whole community votes against using gnulinux for some reason and decides to move on to mac jaguar, or *bsd, or plan9, great. i will follow my own bliss. community is about *first* following your own bliss. and those who wish to share the bliss can dip in. the invitation is open. when mahatma gandhi would invite people to come to meetings for discussing freedom, not enough people would even turn up. so gandhi would pick up the broom himself and sweep the floors himself and start the meetings. this is following your own bliss. i did not put up the logo design for voting. it is there on fdl so others can share. meanwhile, i will go and print one for myself, and make my artworks, and posters, and whatever i want, for my bliss. :-) LL _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
