Re: [Haifux] Haifos?
haifux has a ring to it that kinda makes it obvious what it's about. it's also become known over the years in the technion CS faculty. i think it's a better idea to keep it On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 22:05, Michael Vasiliev mycr...@yandex.ru wrote: On 07/04/2010 19:20, Shachar Raindel wrote: But why are you throwing a bucket of water on Shlomi's bon-fire?

Well, before renaming Haifux to Haifos or HaiFOSS or HaiFree (because you may discuss open/free content too) No. FOSS, as we all know, fails to state that we're talking about Free (*Libre*) OSS, and may confuse people to thing we're talking about freebies.

[Haifux] Offer to help someone with Openoffice and free software for pay
Hello, An acquaintance has contacted me with the request that I help them with problems involving Openoffice and other pieces of free software in return for a fee. I personally am not interested. But if someone is interested in giving free software tech support for a fee, in Haifa, please contact me and I'll make the connection. Peace out. -- Cut your own wood and it will warm you twice ___ Haifux mailing list Haifux@haifux.org http://hamakor.org.il/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haifux
