Hey John/Everyone, John is right! What would be unethical about presenting the positive message of the BLU? =P Worst case scenario we might gain more members which would benefit the FOSS community. We should look at this an one way to that goal. Is anyone else with me? Can we just start a task force on this and discuss it at the next meeting. Any thoughts on this?
