you will note that they have a common minimum programme - called a Mission Statement. They have built a broad coalition by not introducing 'beliefs' into their statement. They do not bash any one and use the more neutral word 'Open Source' rather than FOSS. They seem to have attracted the best of the OS community as well as some of FOSS community, along with some NGOs. In fact, their mission statement is very very neutral and highly focussed. We could learn things from them. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ _______________________________________________ network mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.in
