whew! am so glad you liked this angad. am even more glad yves insisted with ilug-d and sarai he wanted to come to delhi and talk to a reluctant bunch of us, as almost all of us had turned a deaf ear to him. am as excited as you are about this. consider spreading the word further, holding a demo or two in your local area, if you're coming to the next ilug-d meeting in this lovely weather, deliver a talk. anything. regards niyam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
