Dear all,

One challenge, threat, opportunity for us...

"Microsoft signs MOU with nepal Government"

We donot know the content in this MOU. But it is penetration into education,
rural ICT infrastructure and forcing government to  follow IPR(m$ way)

In a brief talk with Mr. Manohar Bhattarai, VC of HLCIT, We came to know
that M$ had asked HLCIT and MOEST to follow IPR and have proposed to get
genuine windows under discount rate.  Though he told us this is not
compulsion, but its possible.

I leave up to the community to discuss on this. Is it threat, challenge or
opportunity?

I realize lack of physical presence on our side which is making us dull and
very very weak to carry out any plans with HLCIT.

I think Foss Nepal community members should be more active and participative
on all ICT events and programs being carried out around us.
