this is the 'assurance': http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.user-groups.linux.ilugc/36498/ match=linuxasia > > Far feched but KG perhaps NRC-FOSS can do it's bit?? NRC-FOSS participation was decided when we thought ilugd was running the show in collaboration with LFY. The microsoft news came too late in the day for changing plans (we *are* a govt thingie and not too much into protesting). However our participation is far less than it would have been had ilugd been part of the show. I personally have been making a noise, but there are a lot of oss people who are neutral to microsoft - and even target the microsoft platform. In fact, a large number of foss applications spend more of their time finetuning the microsoft ports of their applications than the linux ports. Each to his own poison. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
