Re: [ilugd] cheap trick with multiple gmail accounts for concurrent logins

Then use the multiple accounts feature in Gmail (settings - accounts) to get multiple from fields. Or even use the new POP import to import from multiple Gmail accounts. The problem with this is that it doesn't offer anonymity. Gmail's from header munging has an (on behalf of: actual-email-id) in the header portion.

Re: [ilugd] The MS trojan horse in Linux Asia 2007
Hi, I might be the lone voice out here but think you guys are over-reacting. Microsoft has/had a presence in just about every big FLOSS event I've been to, either by participating or sponsoring or having a stall put up. Heck they even have a stall at ze LinuxWorld. (Ironic that the LinuxWorld site runs .asp methinks) http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1782776,00.asp http://www.linuxworldexpo.com/live/12/ I went to LA yesterday and I really think it was a *good* thing Microsoft was there. It didn't reduce the sly comments directed against Microsoft from just about every one of the speakers and their whole wow with Vista stall drew just about as few visitors as the rest of them. Vista was really pathetic when I used it there too, and the girls/guys at the stall were dumbos. I agree however that a try should be made to introduce FOSS into a Microsoft conference. That'd be fun :-) Vish On 2/1/07, Kenneth Gonsalves [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 01-Feb-07, at 10:18 AM, Sudev Barar wrote: While they may be aare they need to be made aware of community dis-approval of such event names being used and associating such sponsors with them.

I'm not sure what's wrong, is the money somehow tainted? In the all the events I've organized the sponsors don't have much of a say on *how* the event is organized, or what is actually said/done at the event. Just that they want this much space for the stalls, this much of time on stage, this much of projector space, their name in the branding etc... not sure it's that much of a problem.
