Indeed, some months ago I suggested publishing lists of "bad guys" and "good guys" somewhere in the Amuta web pages. I don't think there is a publicly available archive, but here is my suggestion cut'n'pasted: One suggestion for the future. I think it might be nice listing sites and services, public or commercial, that do and do not work for users of free software, especially if the "bad guys" have competitors that are "good guys". Logs of attempts to contact them and their responses may be an interesting read, showing their attitudes. I have a recent sample that is rather point-blank. Might as well start collecting them. I am sure that many on this list have entries to contribute. I think it is in line with the Amuta's goals. > I am willing to take that one up as a representative of an official > body, and try to get things changed.

Egged still does not work for me in either Mozilla or Konqueror (from kde-base-3.0.3). https://online.leumi-card.co.il/Registration.asp demands IE (4.0 or newer), 800x600 resolution, and a particular Windows font.
