Hello John, hello Finn, Note to Finn: I do agree with the definition of FOSS you pointed out. More comments inline.

My stance on developpers gave the impression that only developpers mattered. I'm sorry if I gave this impression: by developpers I did not mention the people who actually work and contribute their time to the project, and not just by posting to the lists. However, I also mean to say that the developpers tend to have the last word in FOSS projects, and this is something that history shows. Although they should listen to marketing, I wouldn't like them to be led by marketing only. I am basically a marketer although I don't give this impression :-) , and I know that marketing is not an exact science all too well. Best, Charles. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
