Nice articles that you have gotten. That's really a good start in
Indonesia since opportunity always arises when there is a problem. Cost
is the problem in indoensia and opensource solves it cleanly. It think
it is also good that Linux is promoted at that speed 'cause only when
people are using Linux that they will not want to/tempted to switch back
to the proprietary M$ softwares.
Look forward on more news on the Opensource movement in South East Asia.

Hi all,
I'm new here. I'm Fajar from Indonesia.
Currently we're deploying Openoffice 2 beta 2 in the workplace for about 30
users. So far so good, though the resistance from the users are - in some
cases - fierce. I write an article about it at:

I think Openoffice is splendid, and I'd like to promote it more in my country.
FYI, the open source movement is gaining momentum in Indonesia, in which some
big companies are migrating their desktops and office apps to open source.
However this movement also makes Microsoft Indonesia in particular to launch
a major propaganda campaign against it. As usual through FUD (fear,
uncertainty, and doubt) campaign.
Best regards,
