Me and Adam were in LA. I was at LUG Radio and Flossie recently. > You all seem to be > waiting for handouts. Not me. I'm planning to be able to give out the handouts - well in a small way already done. NEA presence was paid for by me and the INGOTs. Daniel is working full time now on the Website and we have made a small contribution to OOoConf. I think I have been reasonably consistent in saying that we need an income stream to help in these situations and I have not asked anyone for any handouts in this respect. Neither has Adam as far as I know. > This reflects an utter lack of passion. Maybe the passion varies across people. I'm fairly passionate but I'm also pretty rational and realistic. Its taking time to develop a business model from scratch that can fund some of these things but so far its worked at least to some extent and I hope this is just a beginning. > LWE is where users, developers and THE TECHNOLOGY PRESS catch up on > what's going on with the software and the project. > Apparently, on the eve of 2.0 Final, NOTHING is going on! All I know is there is a lot going on in the circles I'm in! So much I'm struggling to keep it all going. Good and constructive meeting with Mark Shuttleworth this afternoon, and Daniel got to see the London Science Museum, Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and Tower Bridge. And we didn't get blown up on the Undergound so a pretty good day ;-) Regards, -- Ian Lynch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ZMSL --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
