Re: [Ubuntu-BD] UK govt promises to Open Source
Since, Bangladesh follow British system blindly in every way possible. NO! Sorry to say, your assumption is not correct [you know that]. Our country, govt. never follow British rules or regulations but their left-over ...that is what our leaders like and use (abuse). If our govt. (and we) could follow [currently] what UK is doing for the development of their country and people then we might have been called ourselves as a developed nation. .

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
Great! I must appreciate all your efforts to help a 'not-so-familiar-with-penguin' type guy :-) 1. To download ... well, there could not be any internet connection at the first place, and, establishing a connection is the problem. 2. according to Tarin, well, I could not find any such tool (s) in my CD... sorry, I stand to be corrected if I am wrong. 3. At last, if a new version is available with ALL required tools of the trade - yes: problem could be solved. Right? Regarding 'Training', well, Russel (and associates) can arrange a training workshop/seminar (paid participation basis) in future; it will help everyone. Thank you all again.
